First stable release on the 0.7 line — the beta's content with the prerelease flag
dropped, after dogfooding, plus one theme added since. Everything new on this line:

  • Themes, with seven built in and support for your own. The full account is in
    the beta notes below: the palettes, the custom\ folder, what a theme may and may
    not do, and why the validator over-rejects on purpose.
  • File ▸ New opens a new window, Settings moved to the Edit menu, and a
    What's New changelog viewer (with the mascot flagging unread entries).
  • A seventh theme, Midget Solarized — see below.
  • Security: DOMPurify 3.4.13 and nanoid 3.3.18, both detailed in the beta notes.

Added

  • A seventh theme: Midget Solarized. Solarized's warmth and family of hues, tuned
    for legibility rather than for low glare. Solarized Light deliberately runs below
    WCAG AA — body text at 4.13:1 — which suits some readers and loses others; this one
    spends that difference on contrast instead: body text 13.19:1 (near-black rather
    than grey-teal), headings 6.58:1 (a deeper, calmer blue in place of the vivid
    azure), a lighter ivory page with less sepia cast, alternating table rows you can
    actually follow down a column, and a dark table header with its text reversed out.
    Body prose also sits one step down at 15.04px — headings, table cells and code
    blocks keep their usual sizes, and printing is unaffected. The accents are quieter
    than Solarized's while the page contrast is wider — the two are not in tension.

See the beta notes below for the full detail.
