What's new ?

• For you, not a lot : various bug fixes, and some UI improvement, support for Spanish translations.
• For translators : the internationalization system now supports fallback translations, so it's not necessary to translate the whole bot at once, which also allows for new updates without the need of new translations for all available languages to be added right away (it was quite blocking actually to not have this, that's why it comes before requested features)

So internally the project has changed a lot, it's been deeply refactored to allow for faster future iterations.

Thus the next release will be coming soon, with a lot of requested features, it will even be a new major version, because it'll be introducing a deep change in the way the products and shops work (see issue #13)

What's new ?

We now use NanoId instead of UUID

This library is faster, generates shorter ids, which are easier to work with, and will soon be used to have stronger type checking.

We now transpile to ES Module

This system is more modern than the old CommonJS, it required a little bit of codebase refactoring to migrate, but it's now fully working.
