GlucoDesk v0.3.0-preview — Glucose awareness notifications

This preview release introduces the first production-ready glucose awareness notification flow for GlucoDesk, together with UI polish, macOS notification packaging, release validation scripts, and installable preview artifacts for macOS and Windows.

GlucoDesk remains a local-first desktop glucose companion. It is designed to help users stay aware of recent glucose trends while working, without replacing approved diabetes applications or medical devices.

Highlights

  • In-app glucose awareness banner
  • Native macOS glucose awareness notifications
  • Bundled macOS notification helper inside the .app package
  • Native notification test flow from Settings
  • Automatic out-of-range glucose awareness notifications
  • Notification cooldown and anti-spam behavior
  • Privacy-conscious notification wording
  • Snooze and dismiss behavior
  • Notification result model with diagnostics
  • Event logging for native notification request outcomes
  • Improved Settings persistence for alert and provider configuration
  • macOS application menu name fixed to GlucoDesk
  • Menu bar glucose presence indicator with glucose-state color feedback
  • Release-ready responsive desktop layout polish
  • Improved Dashboard glucose insights layout
  • Release artifact generation for macOS and Windows
  • SHA256 checksums for installable artifacts

Desktop artifacts

This release includes installable preview artifacts for:

  • macOS Intel: GlucoDesk-0.3.0-preview-macos-x64-installable.zip

macOS notes

The macOS build includes a native notification helper bundled inside the app package:

GlucoDesk.app/Contents/Helpers/GlucoDeskNotificationHelper.app

On first use, macOS may ask permission for GlucoDesk Notifications. Allow notifications if you want desktop glucose awareness prompts.

This preview build may be unsigned or not notarized. If macOS blocks the app on first launch, open System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway.

Windows notes

The Windows x64 package includes the preview installer for testing on Windows machines.

The macOS notification helper is macOS-only and does not affect the Windows build.

Release readiness was verified before publishing:

  • Release build completed successfully
  • Test suite passed: 906 tests, 0 failures
  • Working tree clean

  • macOS DMGs verified with bundled notification helper

Safety notice

GlucoDesk is not a medical device and must not be used for treatment decisions, insulin dosing, emergency alerts, or as a replacement for approved diabetes applications or medical devices.

Preview status

This is a pre-release version intended for testing and feedback. Some platform-specific behavior may still need additional validation across different machines and operating system versions.
