handbook
3.5.1
2026-09-30
- Fixed the header search on the homepage and a few other pages (Working Together, Appendices, Glossary) returning no results: they had been published from a local build and searched
localhostinstead of the live search service. - The build now starts from an empty output folder and fails if any page still carries local-only output (a
localhostsearch address, a “Local”/“Dev” site title, or the dev-server reload script). - The local dev server (
nx run handbook:serve) now renders in memory, so it can no longer overwrite a production build.
