kmenu's v1.0.0-beta 🎉

[haaarshsingh]

The official beta for kmenu v1! I had officially released this on Product Hunt a while ago, and I saw a lot of crucial features lacking. This launch adds more enhanced functionality to the menu and improves DX.

💫

• useCommands hook for sorting and dynamically updating commands
• useKmenu hook for getting useful information such as states out the component
• The MenuProvider component
• Added default shortcuts for commands on the menu
• Improved menu styling
• Added new and useful types to define commands
• Palette height dynamically adjusts for the commands, reducing unnecessary scroll
• Better screen reader accessibility
• Changed defaults of the menu theme configuration

Breaking changes

• Commands have a completely different type now. They're organised into an array of categories, and each individual category has it's own array of commands. Check the documentation for more insight.
• You do not need to define hooks anymore to handle the state of your component
• Categories are no longer passed into the palettes. The new command type takes care of that automatically.
• Individual config files are no longer passable onto the components. Pass them into the MenuProvider directly.
• The PaletteConfig type has been renamed to MenuConfig
• The main Palette has been renamed to CommandMenu

This is still a beta release! I would like to recieve some community feedback and fix some bugs before I release this 🎊
