Description

This release

Codex v1.5.0 will be released on 2024-04-30.

Special notes or breaking changes

CSS variables and dark mode support
Codex design tokens and component styles now use CSS variables for all color-related design tokens. This change has been made in order to provide support for an alternate "dark mode" color palette. In @wikimedia/codex-design-tokens, new files have been introduced to provide default (light mode) and dark versions of Codex color tokens: theme-wikimedia-ui-root.css and theme-wikimedia-ui-mode-dark.css, respectively. The theme-wikimedia-ui.less file can continue to be used independently of these new CSS variable files.

CCiufo-WMF edited projects, added Design-System-Team (DST-Sprint-22 (2024-04-29 to 2024-05-10)); removed Design-System-Team.

This should probably be Codex 1.5.0 given the CSS variable changes.

Also, LibUp won't work until we get rid of npm-shrinkwrap.json

LibUp won't work within Codex, meaning it won't update other packages to their latest versions in Codex. However, it will still be able to update Codex to its latest version in other repos, as long as those other repos don't also use shrinkwrap (and AFAIK none do).
