What's New

Complete migration from Electron + Python to Tauri v2 + Rust.

Highlights

  • Native Rust backend — all device control, storage, scheduling, and credential management runs in-process (no more Python dependency)
  • Massively reduced memory usage — expected ~30-80 MB vs ~150-300 MB with Electron
  • Smaller installer — MSI ~5 MB, NSIS ~3.5 MB
  • System tray with quick actions (Turn On/Off, Brightness 25/50/100%)
  • Close-to-tray behavior with auto-reconnect on startup
  • OS-native credential storage (Windows Credential Manager / Linux Secret Service)
  • Removed alpha/opacity slider from color picker (not applicable for LED strips)

Breaking Changes

  • Requires Windows WebView2 runtime (pre-installed on Windows 10/11)
  • Python backend and Electron shell completely removed
