New Features

1. Codex Site for Documentations

We've used Codex to set up a site for all documentations related to Codex functionalities. The site has a clean theme and is separated into different sections, which contain multiple articles. The sections are categorized as following:

  • User Guide

  • Technical Documentation

  • Release Notes

  • Changelog

The goal is to extend the site as such the navigation between content is intuitive and information related to Codex can be found easily in one simple place.

2. Bulk edit images

Codex has improved the asset management of images to allow editing metadata of multiple images at the same time. This can be done by simply selecting the desired images and right clicking to bulk edit.

4. Addition of ‘Others’ in Assets menu

We've just released the option to upload other types of files in Others submenu of Assets. With this new feature, Codex now offers the possibility to upload a variety of file formats, such as: JSON, XML, Txt, PDF etc, which can be utilized for different purposes. Those files can be categorized into different folders, similarly with other asset types.

5. Static view of Experiment Details (static data)

So far, we've seen the creation of Experiments with different variants, but what happens when we run an experiment? Another view has been added in this release in Codex for Experiment Details, which displays statically metrics for the performance of each variant of an experiment that is running, or has finished running. Metrics include: clicks, impressions, CTR and more.
