How to know all the built-in helper functions

[nadeemkhedr]

I do know there are so many nice utils, is there a doc listing them?

I'm working on docs this week.

You can browse the globals in these two dirs (on the "beta" branch, "main" is waaaaaay out-of-date):

lib utils:
https://github.com/johnlindquist/kit/tree/beta/src/lib

package utils:
https://github.com/johnlindquist/kit/tree/beta/src/api/packages

Awesome! Thanks

What is the easiest way to switch to beta and pull the updates?

[johnlindquist]

If you've installed Kit.app, you're on the beta branch.

I doubt anyone is on main. We'll do a main release once the docs are finalized.

The big impact is the auto-updater uses "release channles", so it will update from beta->main and then most users only update on the main branch (unless they explicitly switch back to beta).

Any update on this?

Honestly I assume this is the biggest hurdle in actual adoption of this program, it is beautiful and elegant in both UI and UX, but there simply isn't sufficient documentation for developing scripts.

Having all of the built-in helper functions in one place, each having a simple description and a single usage example would literally be a game changer. (Including listing their OS compatibility)

I really appreciate the kind words 💛

I almost have the Script Kit 2.0 release candidates ready, I'm just polishing up a couple Windows-specific issues. Hoping tomorrow/Monday.

That should open up my time to finally start documenting features/APIs so everyone can find out what they're missing on :)
