Big things

  • Wayland support
    • Requires LayerShell protocol zwlr_layer_shell_v1 to be supported by window manager
      • zwlr_layer_shell_v1 is implemented by most window managers with the exception of Gnome
    • Global Shortcut on Wayland is not yet implemented, please use gauntlet open CLI command to open main window
  • Style changes
    • Settings UI overhaul
    • Slightly tweaked colors
    • Changed text selection color to make text more visible
    • Other minor style changes
  • Theming support
    • 2 types of themes
      • Color only
      • Everything: Color, paddings, borders, etc
    • Theming is only applied to main window
    • Versioned
      • Because of internally invasive nature of the themes, it is perpetually unstable feature.
        Themes are versioned and only one version is supported at the same time by application, the theme will stop working as soon as version is incremented
        • This may change in the future
    • See THEME.md for details
  • It is now possible to change global shortcut for opening main window in settings
  • Plugin shortcuts are now matched based on physical keycode, which means shortcuts now work regardless of selected keyboard layout
  • It is now possible to show/hide action panel using ALT + K on Windows and Linux or OPT + K on macOS
    • At the moment it is not possible to change this shortcut to different keys
  • BREAKING CHANGE: Implemented actual validation of supported_system plugin manifest property.
    • If OS was not specified in supported_system plugin manifest property, plugin will stop loading on that OS unless plugin is cross-platform (it doesn't have environment, ffi, fs_read_access, fs_write_access, run_subprocess or system permission)

Plugin Development

  • Local plugin stdout console.log and stderr console.error logs are now saved to file to be able to show them in tools dev server CLI
  • Added windows and macos values to plugins manifest supported_system property
  • BREAKING CHANGE: For local development plugins, dist suffix is now automatically added to plugin ID. Please update @project-gauntlet/tools to 0.6.0
  • BREAKING CHANGE: Image source properties how accept path to asset, url or icon instead of byte array
    • Url source at the moment is not cached, so the image is downloaded every time the view is opened

Applications plugin

  • On Linux .desktop files are now opened using gtk-launch instead of custom implementation, fixing several edge cases

UI Improvements and Fixes

  • Main window list is now scrolled automatically when using keyboard navigation to keep focused item visible
  • Better feedback about in-progress/failed/successful plugin downloads with information about errors in settings

General fixes

  • Fix plugin toggle button to hide/show entrypoints in settings not doing anything
  • Fix settings app being always on top of other windows on macOS

Internal Improvements

  • Removed the need to have 42321 TCP port
    • Note: port 42320 is still being used
