Costs to Expect API v2.04.0 in development

House decorating continues, we expect to be finished sometime within the next two weeks. Decorating is limiting my development time; as such, I have decided it would be a bad idea to release v2.03.0.

If I release v2.03.0 now, it will probably be two weeks before v2.04.0 is ready. These releases are interim releases, combined they complete a significant feature. A two-week gap between the versions could cause issues so I’m releasing v2.03.0 internally and will make another public release when v2.04.0 is ready.

We aren’t due to start another round of decorating until February 2020, so typical development cadence should return in November.

v2.03.0 of the API is on the way.

The development of v2.03.0 is almost complete; I expect to have it out before the end of the week.

For this release, I am refactoring the multiple item types code. Adding support for simple expenses increased the item code significantly. New item types are due to be added to the API, so it makes sense to refactor before the complexity increases additionally.

We are decorating our house, and the scope of our plans increased, there is going to be a negative impact on my development time.

Although the pace of development has slowed, it is going to pay dividends in the future. I expect the pace to speed up once we complete decorating and I have pushed out v2.04.0 of the API.
