Changelog

[2026.02.20-e375aec] - Add encouraging friends empty state

Changed

Show an additional encouraging message in the Friends window when the list is still empty.

Added

Add a new Debug-Modus toggle in launcher settings (Allgemein) to enable technical log diagnostics.
Add a compact live log overlay that appears while debug mode is enabled and lets users open the full logs drawer directly.

[2026.02.19-c512f84] - Add startup autostart background mode

Changed

Add a new launcher setting to start the app automatically with the operating system.
Default the startup setting to enabled so fresh installs launch automatically after sign-in.
Start autostart launches in background/tray mode instead of forcing the main window open.
Add an updater setting to automatically install launcher updates while the user is AFK/idle.
Only trigger idle auto-install when data saver is inactive, so constrained network sessions stay paused.
Move the global narrator toggle from Settings > Allgemein to the Optionen tab in Minecraft options.
Add per-profile narrator override in profile details (Vererbt / Aktiv / Deaktiviert) with effective-state preview.

Added

Add native autostart bridge commands in the launcher backend and wire them to the settings toggle.

Fixed

Keep sidebar hover labels aligned with their hovered item when UI scale/zoom is changed.
Remove duplicate native/browser hover hints on sidebar navigation items when custom in-app tooltips are active (notably visible on Windows).
Remove the embedded chat section from the Friends popout window and keep the layout single-column there.

Parse Friends live-snapshot payloads with nested requests.incoming/outgoing and map them to launcher overview fields, so incoming/outgoing friend requests stay live in the UI.

[2026.02.19-c780bea] - Move launcher updater flow to Rust

Changed

Route launcher update checks through native Tauri Rust commands instead of running updater plugin logic in the UI hook.
Route launcher download/install flow through native Rust updater commands and stream progress back to the UI via launcher://updater-progress events.

Fixed

Keep update check and install source consistent via the public versions API (/v1/public/versions/resolve + /v1/public/versions/download) to avoid UI-visible updates that cannot be installed in-app.

[2026.02.18-8fb59f5] - Mobile activity icon in friends presence

Changed

Show a phone activity icon in Friends rows and favorite tiles when a friend is online from mobile without launcher/desktop presence.
Keep the existing square activity icon for launcher/desktop/ingame presence, so device context is visible at a glance.

[2026.02.18-0762bdb] - Fix active-interface data saver detection on macOS

Fixed

Restrict macOS data-saver detection to the currently active default network interface instead of scanning all saved interfaces.
Prevent false positives where Friends and other network-backed features stayed paused even when the active system connection had data saver disabled.

[2026.02.18-4ce6853] - Connect fallback download path compatibility

Fixed

Resolve Connect artifact fallback downloads via the versioned object path (/release/<loader>/<version>/<file>.jar) when a manifest does not provide a direct URL.
Encode + and spaces in Connect fallback URL path segments to avoid broken fetches for tagged artifact names.

[2026.02.18-2688b54] - Prevent macOS data saver false positives

Fixed

Ignore navigator.connection.saveData in the desktop Tauri runtime so launcher data-saver state no longer flips on false browser signals.
Keep desktop data-saver activation tied to the native OS metered/data-saver signal only.

[2026.02.18-a9baa04] - Keep header tooltips anchored to hovered control

Fixed

Align header hover tooltips with their hovered icon/button when UI zoom uses transform-based scaling.
Compensate tooltip coordinates against root scaling so tooltip position remains stable across zoom modes.

[2026.02.18-128db14] - Remove manual data saver toggle from settings

Changed

Remove the manual Datensparmodus checkbox from launcher settings.
Derive data-saver pause behavior only from automatic OS/network signals (OS data saver and metered connection).

Changed

Replace native browser title tooltips in the launcher window header with styled in-app tooltips.
Add richer hover details for notifications, friends activity, data-saver state, updates, and layout-edit actions.
Improve tooltip readability and placement with viewport-aware positioning and non-blocking pointer behavior.

[2026.02.18-c00eca8] - Auto-detect OS data saver mode

Fixed

Register and expose the missing Tauri command is_metered_connection_command so UI data-saver detection no longer fails silently.
Enable automatic OS-level data-saver detection on all desktop targets in the launcher UI instead of Windows-only checks.
Use an explicit OS data saver detected reason in the active data-saver state label.

[2026.02.18-886a872] - Auto-maintain Uebliche runtime in background

Changed

Start an automatic Uebliche runtime maintenance task on launcher startup when runtime mode is enabled.

Changed

Remove the up/down arrow controls for server ordering in the personal server list and cards.
Add drag-and-drop reordering for personal servers in both list and card view, including a dedicated drag handle in each server action row.
Add visual drag feedback (dragging state and before/after drop indicators) for clearer reorder targets.

[2026.02.18-967d2b0] - Polish server list view styling

Changed

Redesign the personal server list rows with clearer visual hierarchy, stronger hover/focus states, and improved spacing.
Add dedicated list-view styling for public servers, including better alignment for metadata, profile actions, and import controls.

[2026.02.18-3ea251f] - Add server IP privacy toggle

Added

Add a new checkbox in the Servers view to hide server host/IP addresses.

Changed

Obfuscate server addresses in server lists, server cards, public server cards, and server details while the toggle is enabled.
Persist the address visibility preference locally, so the choice is kept across launcher restarts.

[2026.02.18-2809874] - Emphasize active layout edit in header

Changed

Keep the layout reset action locked directly to the right of the Layout bearbeiten pencil in the window header.
Strengthen the active visual state of the layout edit button with higher contrast and glow, so edit mode is immediately visible.

[2026.02.18-e7cc7d8] - Restore FairPlay readiness command

Fixed

Re-register the Tauri invoke command fairplay_readiness so profile details can load FairPlay readiness again without Command fairplay_readiness not found.

[2026.02.18-c151dd5] - Show layout reset only in edit mode

Changed

Show the window-header layout reset button only while Layout bearbeiten is active.

Added

Allow grouping sidebar navigation entries by dropping one item onto another while Layout bearbeiten is active.
Add grouped-entry persistence so created sidebar groups survive launcher restarts.

Changed

Collapse grouped sidebar entries into one launcher item in normal mode and open a compact member picker on click.
Add an Ungroup action for group leaders in edit mode to clear a created group quickly.

[2026.02.18-f34c5ab] - Add layout reset action to header

Added

Add a dedicated reset button next to the Layout bearbeiten pencil in the window header.

Changed

Route layout reset through a confirmation overlay so reset only runs after explicit user confirmation.

[2026.02.18-3bde38c] - Improve live drag preview in layout edit mode

Changed

Add a floating live preview chip while dragging sidebar navigation entries in Layout bearbeiten.
Add a floating live preview card while dragging Home widgets (News, Welten, Server, Support) in Layout bearbeiten.

Fixed

Project sidebar and home widget order as a live preview during drag, so the target position is visible before drop.
Strengthen drop target highlighting and card hover feedback to make drag targets clearer while reordering.

[2026.02.18-ebd64ab] - Add macOS runtime deploy targets

Added

Add macos-arm64 and macos-x64 runtime build/deploy support for the signed Uebliche runtime repository.

Changed

Make the runtime deploy action upload paths configurable via repo OS/arch segments, so non-Windows runtime artifacts can be published without manual S3 copy steps.

Fixed

Accept both .zip and .tar.gz JRE archives in the runtime build script (Adoptium macOS binaries are tarballs).
Resolve signed runtime index/manifest paths for macOS launcher platforms (mac-os, mac-os-arm64) in launcher-core.

Fixed

Remove the native macOS select indicator from launcher selects so the FairPlay Policy-Modus (Profil) dropdown no longer shows a broken double-arrow icon.

[2026.02.17-35cf4b5] - Pointer-only reorder for edit mode

Fixed

Use pointer-only reorder flow for sidebar navigation in Layout bearbeiten to avoid platform-specific HTML5 drag/drop failures.
Use pointer-only reorder flow for landing widgets so card reordering works consistently in desktop WebViews.

Changed

Add pointer target metadata and global pointer tracking for robust drop target detection while dragging.

[2026.02.17-62c5aa8] - Pointer fallback for layout reorder

Fixed

Add pointer-based drag/reorder fallback for sidebar navigation items in Layout bearbeiten, so reorder works even when HTML5 drop events are unreliable in desktop WebViews.
Add pointer-based drag/reorder fallback for landing page widgets (News, Welten, Server, Support) in layout edit mode.

Changed

Prevent home card navigation while layout edit mode is active to avoid accidental page switches during reorder interactions.

Fixed

Keep sidebar drag payload stable until drop is processed, preventing no-op drops in some WebView drag event orders.
Make sidebar drop handlers consume events earlier and resolve dragged item more defensively for reliable reorder commits.

Changed

Disable sidebar navigation clicks while Layout bearbeiten is active to avoid accidental route changes during drag operations.

Fixed

Correct sidebar edit-mode reorder index mapping within the same section so dropping items downward no longer snaps back to the old order.
Move sidebar drag source handling to the full item container for more reliable drag/drop behavior in layout edit mode.

[2026.02.17-348ff5a] - Restore native HTTP bridge command

Fixed

Re-register http_request_command in the Tauri invoke handler so launcher UI calls can use the native Rust HTTP bridge again.
Restore native HTTP request execution (method/headers/body/timeout) with HTTPS-only enforcement (except localhost over HTTP), fixing repeated Command http_request_command not found runtime errors.

[2026.02.17-9e1ce71] - Compact layout-edit toggle

Changed

Make the window-header Layout bearbeiten toggle icon-only (pencil), removing the text label and eye badge.
Keep the same tooltip and accessibility label while matching other compact header icon actions.

Changed

Remove sidebar navigation menu controls from Settings; navigation/menu visibility and ordering are now edited only in Layout bearbeiten.
Remove Home landing widget menu controls from Settings; start-page widget visibility and ordering are now edited only in Layout bearbeiten.

Changed

Replace Home widget edit controls on the landing page with icon-based width/height controls and the shared list/cards icon switch.
Add frame-edge resize handles (right, bottom, and corner) so widget size can be adjusted directly via drag in edit mode.
Keep drag reorder stable by suspending widget drag while a resize interaction is active.

[2026.02.17-561fcea] - Increase UI Kit spacing

Changed

Increase spacing between UI Kit cards, rows, labels, and stacked elements so examples are less cramped.
Add dedicated responsive UI Kit spacing rules for desktop and mobile breakpoints.

[2026.02.17-214bbbf] - Remove settings reorder arrows

Changed

Remove up/down reorder arrow controls from settings rows in Navigation and Startseite.
Keep these settings focused on visibility toggles; ordering is handled in layout edit mode.

[2026.02.17-3b80dcd] - Layout edit drag/drop and sizing controls

Fixed

Make sidebar edit-mode drag/drop robust by resolving drag payload from dataTransfer and keeping drag state stable across browser drag events.
Add section-level drop handling in sidebar edit mode so dropping at the end of top/bottom menu sections works reliably.

Changed

Add explicit layout mode buttons (List/Cards) for home widgets and show active selection state.

[2026.02.17-117d5d1] - Persist launcher window bounds

Fixed

Remember launcher window size and position across restarts via the Tauri window-state plugin.
Persist window state on explicit app shutdown paths (exit(0) and tray quit) instead of only close events.
Restore saved state when recreating the main launcher window instance.

[2026.02.17-ffb7ba1] - Edit-mode layout overlays

Added

Show a compact view-mode overlay in Layout bearbeiten mode on list-heavy pages (Profiles, Worlds, Servers) to switch between list/cards directly in context.

Changed

Reuse one shared overlay component for these pages so view-mode editing behavior stays visually and functionally consistent.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Customizable launcher surface

Added

Add customizable sidebar navigation settings to show/hide entries and reorder main/secondary menu items.
Add customizable home widget settings to enable/disable and reorder News, Worlds, Servers, and Support.

Changed

Extend look-and-feel settings with UI density, accent style, card style, and compact mode toggles.
Apply the new UI style settings globally via persisted data-ui-* flags so layout spacing and card presentation update immediately.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Inheritable profile switch style

Changed

Replace the profile auto-update inherit/enable/disable buttons with a reusable inheritable switch component for profile-level overrides.
Show a linked icon in the top-right of the switch when Inherit is active and dim the control slightly to indicate global fallback.
Show an unlinked icon when profile override mode is active so Enabled/Disabled is visually distinct from inherited mode.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Zero playtime label

Fixed

Show 0 playtime for fresh profiles with no recorded session yet, instead of <1m.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Create profile snapshot toggle visibility

Changed

Hide the Show snapshots checkbox in the create-profile wizard when Always latest release or Always latest snapshot is selected, because the toggle has no effect in tracked mode.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Compatible mod fallback install

Changed

Profile details now offer a direct Kompatible Version nutzen action for Modrinth mods that are flagged as incompatible with the current Minecraft version.
Mod update installs now prefer the currently resolved compatible versionId before using stale cached update metadata.

Fixed

When a pinned mod version install fails with a compatibility error, the launcher now automatically resolves and retries with the best compatible version for the profile loader + Minecraft version.

[2026.02.17-e702456] - Profile details resilient loading

Changed

Open profile details immediately with cached data or a summary snapshot while fresh detail/asset data loads in the background.
Refresh profile details and profile assets in parallel to reduce perceived wait time when opening the details panel.

Fixed

Add hard timeouts for profile detail and asset requests so the details view no longer hangs indefinitely on stalled backend calls.
Guard profile detail requests against stale responses when users switch/close details quickly, preventing missing or overwritten UI state.

[2026.02.17-b0dda2c] - Notification quick actions

Changed

Open notifications from the bell in a compact dropdown with an explicit empty state (Keine Mitteilungen vorhanden.).
Keep notification lists scrollable inside the dropdown so the panel stays small.

Added

Add inline friend request actions directly in the notification dropdown:
- accept via green check
- decline via red cross
- block via red lock
Add a launcher core/Tauri bridge command to block a user from friend notifications (friends_block_user_command -> /social/friends/blocks).

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Dedicated news tab

Added

Add a dedicated News tab to the launcher navigation.
Add feed search/filter controls in the news tab (fulltext, scope, project, and tag filters).
Add a detailed news view with markdown rendering and direct link opening.

Changed

Increase launcher news feed fetch size so the dedicated news tab can search across a larger result set.
Keep Home news compact by limiting the preview list to the latest entries.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Followable launcher news feeds

Added

Home news view: add project feed follow controls (follow/unfollow chips + manual project ID follow input).
Add launcher core/API bridge for personalized news feed data and follow updates (list_news_command + set_news_follow_projects_command).

Changed

Load news from authenticated /v1/news/feed so launcher users see combined global news plus followed project feeds.
Keep compatibility fallback to legacy public news (service:launcher + parents) when personalized feed is unavailable.
Reuse feed cache timestamps (sinceMs / lastChangedAtMs) and skip full payload updates when the API reports notModified=true.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Friends polling via core

Changed

Move launcher friends live updates to core-driven polling (friends_overview_command) and stop opening a browser WebSocket from the UI layer.
Remove the obsolete friends_stream_url_command bridge and corresponding core helper for /social/friends/live.

Fixed

Prevent recurring launcher log spam from failed UI WebSocket connections to wss://api.uebliche.net/v1/social/friends/live.

[2026.02.17-c00eca8] - Skin parts migration deep link

Added

Add launcher deep-link support for skin parts migration (?entry=skin-builder-parts and /catalog/skin-builder/parts) to open Accounts > Skins > Community.
Add optional launcher query support for direct account view selection (view=accounts, accountsTab, skinsTab).

Changed

Allow external services (for example Dash migration bridges) to open the launcher directly in the skin parts community workflow.

Fixed

Window header: align the top-left brand (logo + title) more precisely by normalizing line-height.

[2026.02.14-d6c3e6a] - Notifications and preview stability

Changed

Server management: stop re-pinging on every silent refresh; auto-ping failures are now debug-only (with cooldown) instead of spamming the console.

Fixed

Desktop notifications (Windows): do not force the notifications window into permanent click-through mode; clicks work again and the webview controls click-through only when empty.
Skins: reduce WebGL context usage by rendering list/grid thumbnails as 2D images and keeping the main 3D preview stable (avoids "Too many active WebGL contexts" and context-loss crashes).

[2026.02.14-22b808b] - Servers, notifications, and accounts

Changed

Server management: move the primary actions (Add server / Refresh public servers) into the top header for a more consistent layout.
Microsoft account flow: the main action now starts the device-code flow and immediately copies the code + opens the login URL (one click). The code remains clickable to copy.

Fixed

Desktop notifications (Windows): avoid hiding the notifications popout before it emitted the ready handshake, preventing notifications from never showing on some setups.
Network Guard: log status events as info (while still keeping a debug copy of all events) so users see activity without enabling debug logs.

[2026.02.14-92c87d4] - Minecraft language (system)

Fixed

When "Use system language" is enabled, prefer the likely locale (e.g. de_de for de) instead of picking an arbitrary first match like de_at.

[2026.02.14-e66cb46] - Skin Builder attention animations

Fixed

Restore clickable desktop notifications by only enabling click-through when the notifications window is empty (Windows).
Add category-specific Skin Builder preview attention animations when switching parts (tops/outerwear/gloves: inspect arms, bottoms/socks/footwear: crouch, head slots: nod) and keep the preview camera framed to the active category.
Log the active Network Guard config on launch and include the effective policy flags in the startup status event.

[2026.02.14-98ea725] - Desktop notifications & Network Guard

Fixed

Clamp the desktop notifications popout position to the active monitor so misplaced screen placement settings cannot push notifications off-screen (Windows).
Emit a Network Guard status event even when disabled and log every Network Guard event with a debug copy for easier troubleshooting.

Changed

Replace the separate "Copy" + "Open login" actions with a single "Copy & login" button in the Microsoft device-code flow.
Make the device code itself clickable (and keyboard accessible) to copy it.

[2026.02.14-75b621c] - Network Guard logging

Fixed

Log Network Guard status, observed destinations, and policy decisions in the launcher debug log (including socket monitor errors).

[2026.02.14-2e679dc] - Desktop notifications (Windows)

Fixed

Make the notifications popout show/hide logic resilient so notifications still appear even if optional window APIs fail on Windows.

[2026.02.14-eb5c2d5] - Desktop notifications (Windows)

Fixed

Fix Windows desktop notifications by bootstrapping the hidden notifications window on first use.

[2026.02.14-a7ab685] - German translations

Fixed

Use proper umlauts in German UI copy.

[2026.02.14-732d45a] - Window header spacing

Fixed

Normalize window header spacing so controls and action buttons use consistent gaps.

[2026.02.14-56f0a9d] - Ollama model catalog

Fixed

Avoid fetching Ollama /api/tags on startup (models are now loaded only when you explicitly refresh them).

[2026.02.14-6035686] - Log overlay resizing

Changed

Replace the log overlay height slider with a draggable top edge (height is persisted).

[2026.02.14-3a1e5d4] - Apply skins to accounts

Fixed

Fix applying skins to accounts by sending the required accountId argument to the core command.

[2026.02.14-a81b5b4] - Clothing overlay templates

Fixed

Include second-layer (overlay) UV islands in Tops/Bottoms part templates so creators can paint proper 3D depth.
Map Outerwear templates to the jacket/sleeves overlay UV islands.

[2026.02.14-ed7c6be] - Skin builder color controls

Fixed

Hide the part color controls in the skin builder when a selected community part disables custom colors (non-colorable layers).

[2026.02.13-60a83ac] - Skin preview cape picker styling

Fixed

Style the cape selection list in the skin preview modal so it matches the rest of the launcher UI.

[2026.02.13-e349ae8] - Clothing templates

Fixed

Expand Tops/Outerwear/Bottoms part templates to cover all faces (360 degrees) in the part editor instead of only the front.

[2026.02.13-b1c2152] - Head follow direction

Fixed

Correct the vertical axis for head-follow pointer rotation so moving the mouse up looks up (and vice versa).

[2026.02.13-d47eee0] - Native Windows window corners

Fixed

Use native Windows window corner rounding for launcher windows instead of CSS border-radius clipping.

[2026.02.13-10b5db1] - Pending part editing

Added

Allow creators to fully edit pending/blocked community skin builder parts in the part editor and re-submit them for review.
Show pending/blocked status chips for your own community parts in the market list.

[2026.02.13-84487f8] - Layer order dialog

Changed

Make the skin builder layer order modal more compact and show the selected part name(s) per slot.

[2026.02.13-b0f5752] - Head follows pointer

Added

Make the main 3D skin preview track the mouse pointer with head rotation for extra life in the builder and accounts preview.

[2026.02.13-6ea7120] - Neutral fallback skins

Fixed

Remove purple tint from placeholder/fallback skins in 3D previews.
Use a neutral skin-tone base when composing builder skins, so missing parts no longer introduce a purple cast.

[2026.02.13-ce128dd] - Skin builder part offsets

Added

Allow community part uploads to define per-part offset bounds (X/Y min/max) for placement adjustments.
Allow adjusting a selected part's position in the builder within its offset bounds, persisted in saved builder skins.

[2026.02.13-644b113] - Headwear stack focus

Fixed

Keep stacked Headwear render order stable while selecting items for editing (no accidental reordering when focusing a part).

[2026.02.13-f7b90e1] - Stacked headwear parts

Added

Allow selecting multiple Headwear parts at once (stacking) so hats and glasses can be combined.
Persist stacked Headwear selections (and their per-part colors) in saved builder skins.

[2026.02.13-f8b0ed3] - Community part attribution

Added

Allow submitting optional attribution (source/inspiration/original artist) when uploading community skin builder parts.

[2026.02.13-f969f01] - Community part moderation

Added

Prompt for community upload rules/terms before submitting skin builder parts.

Changed

Submit community skin builder parts for moderation (pending) instead of publishing immediately.

[2026.02.13-dbf4c0c] - Skin part upload validation

Fixed

Validate community part template uploads as 64x64 PNG files (<= 256 KiB) before submitting.
Reject invalid skin builder part textures on the Public API (64x64 PNG, <= 256 KiB).

[2026.02.13-45b1027] - Layered skin builder parts

Added

Allow community skin builder parts to use multiple PNG layers, each with its own tint in the builder and part editor.
Persist skin builder selections and color overrides when saving skins to the library, so edits can resume later.
Add Modrinth-style search term filtering for Worlds, Servers, and Profiles lists.
Add a visual editor for desktop notification placement.

Changed

Update Patreon links to point to patreon.com/uebliche and streamline the Supporters tab CTA.

[2026.02.13-553252d] - Community base parts

Added

Allow community skin builder parts in the Base slot, so custom base bodies can be uploaded and selected.

[2026.02.13-27f27fc] - Skin builder layer compositing

Fixed

Compose skin builder selections from uploaded PNG textures in a deterministic slot draw order, so parts stack correctly.
Remove placeholder builder parts so only real community/custom items are shown.

[2026.02.13-6f9de4e] - Modpack import entry

Changed

Remove Modpacks from the Modrinth browser project-type tabs to keep that view focused on mods, resource packs, and shaders.

Added

Add a dedicated Import Modpack profile archive action to the Profiles import menu so modpack/profile archives are created from the Profiles import flow.

[2026.02.11-26cd782] - Prism playtime import fix

Fixed

Convert Prism/MultiMC totalTimePlayed values from seconds to milliseconds during instance import so imported profile playtime matches the source launcher.

[2026.02.11-3f6c10f] - Worlds refresh guard while playing

Fixed

Ignore worlds-changed refresh events for profiles that currently have a running game instance, so the Worlds view no longer reloads continuously during gameplay on Windows.

[2026.02.11-c8bffa6] - Updater cache busting

Fixed

Append a timestamp query parameter to updater manifest fetch URLs so CDN-cached responses do not block fresh update detection.

[2026.02.11-7f3a64c] - Updater build-date freshness

Fixed

Compare update candidates by manifest build date (pub_date) and release day instead of hash-only suffix ordering.
Keep the manual manifest fallback active when plugin checks report no update, so newer same-day builds are still detected.

[2026.02.11-433c001] - S3 release cleanup

Added

Add scripts/cleanup-s3-releases.js to prune old launcher artifacts from S3 while keeping the newest N versions per channel.
Add a Cleanup launcher S3 uebliche.dev action with configurable channels, retention, and apply mode.

[2026.02.10-33b7ec3] - Signed in-app updates

Fixed

Generate and publish signed updater manifests so in-app updates ("Download & Neustart") work reliably.
Improve the updater fallback flow to open manual download URLs via the Tauri-safe external opener.

[2026.02.08-c87b4a8] - Focus ring styling

Fixed

Replace the default blue input focus ring with an accent-colored focus outline.

[2026.02.08-e60a156] - Selection colors

Fixed

Use the launcher accent color for text selection + caret color instead of the system default blue highlight.

[2026.02.08-04dbbcb] - Libraries link opener

Fixed

Ensure third-party library links open reliably in Tauri by routing clicks through the external opener.

[2026.02.08-e67e6e0] - Libraries search copy

Fixed

Use a dedicated libraries search placeholder instead of reusing the log search string.

Changed

Redesign the third-party libraries overlay with search, versions, and a cleaner compact list.

[2026.02.08-ed2ef2e] - Global view loading

Fixed

Reduce UI hangs while switching tabs by lazily building view props only for the active page and showing a global loading overlay while the new view mounts.

Fixed

Avoid UI stalls when switching tabs by rendering only the active view and scheduling navigation state updates as transitions.

Fixed

Prevent hidden pages from re-rendering on navigation by freezing their element trees while hidden, avoiding short UI hangs.

[2026.02.08-181e662] - Instant tab switching
