We also saw the release of a new tool,
[Form Props](https://github.com/thoughtbot/form_props)!

## [Form Props](https://github.com/thoughtbot/form_props)

Johny Ho ([jho406](https://github.com/jho406)) released a new tool, 
[Form Props](https://github.com/thoughtbot/form_props)! 🎉

It's a Rails form builder that outputs input attributes (in JSON) instead of
tags. Now you can enjoy the conviences of Rails helpers in other view libraries
like React and React Native.

## [Bourbon](https://github.com/thoughtbot/bourbon)

[Bourbon](https://github.com/thoughtbot/bourbon) is a library of Sass mixins and
functions that are designed to make you a more efficient style sheet author.

Sarah Lima ([sarahraqueld](https://github.com/sarahraqueld)) fixed a broken logo
([71d4776](https://github.com/thoughtbot/bourbon/commit/71d4776757bbd0d7da47b5660eb6d1f3bf73fc3f)).

## [Shoulda Context](https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda-context)

[Shoulda Context](https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda-context) makes it easy
to write understandable and maintainable tests under Minitest and Test::Unit
within Rails projects or plain Ruby projects.

Pedro Paiva ([VSPPedro](https://github.com/VSPPedro)) removed support for Rails
5.2
([7fdc814](https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda-context/commit/7fdc814f8a0c4a67d6aa108ffcc0df372d64bb37)).

## [PropsTemplate](https://github.com/thoughtbot/props_template)

[PropsTemplate](https://github.com/thoughtbot/props_template) is a direct-to-Oj,
JBuilder-like DSL for building JSON. It has support for Russian-Doll caching,
layouts, and can be queried by giving the root a key path.

Johny Ho ([jho406](https://github.com/jho406)) bumped the version to 0.25.0
([27fdb18](https://github.com/thoughtbot/props_template/commit/27fdb1803294de8179a6007ffe0864a31b45476e)).
