Updating

Gald3r Throne updates itself in place through the built-in Tauri 2 auto-updater. You normally never re-download it manually.

How the auto-updater works

• Throne periodically checks the release latest.json manifest published alongside each GitHub release.
• When a newer version is available, the app verifies the update's updater signature (the .sig file) against its embedded public key, then prompts you to install.
• On confirm, the updater downloads and applies the new version and restarts the app. Your local settings, credentials (in the OS keychain), and project data are untouched.
• The check cadence is user-toggleable; the updater is disclosed and does not silently install without a prompt.

Because updates are signature-verified, only authentic gald3r releases can be applied — even though the installers themselves are not yet OS-code-signed.

Checking your version

The app header shows the current version. v0.2.0 keeps all manifests (package.json, Cargo.toml, tauri.conf.json, VERSION) in sync, gated by npm run version:check.

If auto-update is unavailable

If the updater endpoint is unreachable, or you're on a build without an updater feed, just download the newest installer from the Releases page and run it over your existing install:

→ github.com/Gald3r-Labs/gald3r_throne/releases/latest

• Windows — run the newer -setup.exe (or .msi); it upgrades in place.
• Linux (AppImage) — replace the old AppImage file with the new one.
• Linux (.deb) — sudo apt install ./Gald3r.Throne_<version>_amd64.deb.
