Release Notes:

Production build date: 2021.11.20

Integration build date: 2021.11.19
All apps v4.3.0

Changes:

• Added error bars to contingency table difference curves.
• Added significance overlay to contingency table contour diff plots.
• Contingency table statistical calculations are now done by the app instead of in the query, resulting in a speed increase.
• Contingency table apps have a new and improved text display.
• Plot axis ranges are re-calculated after matching, so that there are not large gaps on the sides of plots.
• Contour diff selectors X-axis-parameter and Y-axis-parameter are now are now plot parameters instead of curve parameters, since they should only have one value for the entire plot.
• Difference curve and QC controls are now hidden for plot types they are not relevant to.
• Infrastructure improvements for when we eventually use GitHub actions to manage app container builds.
• Updated all apps to Meteor v2.5.
