Meteor docs BEFORE 1.2.0.1?

help

I’m running Meteor 1.1.0.3 and would like to review the documentation for this version.

Now that 1.2.0.1 has dropped, docs.meteor.com only points to 1.2.0.1 – how can I get/review the documentation for my specific version of Meteor?

Is there something you’re looking for specifically? AFAIK the docs haven’t changed very much.

I don’t know how to revert the exact documentation, but I check the version history at https://github.com/meteor/meteor/blob/devel/History.md when I want to see what’s changed.

Had the same question in mind when I first encountered the updated docs. I think it’s fairly common that documentation for all relevant releases is still available after an update. And in fact there are some noticable differences between release versions 1.1 and 1.2.

That’s actually good idea to have versioned documentation. Other frameworks have that, so even if someone is running 2y old version, it’s possible to get documentation.

@sashko what do you think?

Currently, the recommended way to view docs for an old version is to get them from git:

git clone https://github.com/meteor/meteor.git
cd meteor
git checkout release/METEOR@1.1.0.2
cd docs
meteor

I’m hoping to soon switch to a saner docs website that provides some of these features.
