Changelog

2015-03-26, Version 2.0.0

• Modularization
  • neonode-core
• Middlewares directory
  • All express middlewares are part of the base Neonode Module to be able to tweak them or to add more. Middlewares are loaded in filename ASC order.
• Updatability
  • All projects created with Neonode > v2.0.0 can be updated (at least the neonode-core module)
• Webpack
  • Removed the webpack-dev-middleware module as it doesn't render the packed file to disk. We will stick to Webpack CLI for now.
