Ionic 6.6 introduces several enhancements to its framework, focusing on improvements to the datetime, picker, and toast components. Developers can now highlight significant dates in ion-datetime using the new highlightedDates property, making it easier to draw attention to important dates. The update also allows for customization of aria-label values in ion-picker, enhancing accessibility and user experience. Additionally, the ion-toast component now includes a layout property that enables buttons to be stacked on separate lines, improving readability when button texts are lengthy. The release acknowledges community feedback and contributions, inviting further ideas for improvement through their GitHub repository.
