    • DataFormsJS App Object
      • ~/js/DataFormsJS.js

      • Fix typo in error message
      • Example of the new features is being published on the Handlebars Places Demo:
      • https://dataformsjs.com/examples/places-demo-hbs.htm
      • All pages with Excel and CSV export pass prop to a HTML Control
      • Search Screen renders nested HTML control when app.refreshHtmlControl() is called from the JS Control <json-data>
    • 🌐 Web Components - Component Class
    • 🔌 Framework Plugins - Excel and CSV Export
      • ~/js/plugins/exportToCsv.js
      • ~/js/plugins/exportToExcel.js
      • Add support so that elements using the plugin are refreshed when app.refreshHtmlControl() is called.
      • Minor fix handled by using onRendered(rootElement) instead of onRendered().
      • For Excel text columns were the the max character width is less than 20 an extra 2 pixels of space will be added so content better fits.
    • ⚡️ I18N update
      • Framework Plugin ~/js/plugins/i18n.js
      • Web Component ~/js/web-components/i18n-service.js
      • Added ability to find and replace i18n keys inside of an attribute string by using syntax [[key]]
      • Example data-export-file-name="[[Countries]].xlsx" data-i18n-attr="data-export-file-name"
      • Previously both Countries and Countries.xlsx would have had to be defined for each language
      • Now only Countries has to be defined
      • For Vue apps this applies to the v-i18n-attr directive
