  • Added Settings pages to configure the state of the application (persistently stored in a configuration file):
    • customise notifications
    • choose between 4 different application styles

[1.0.1] - 2022-11-30

  • Substituted command open with command xdg-open on Linux systems to solve the problem described in issues #13 and #23
  • Introduced a constraint on minimum window height to avoid problem described in issue #12
  • Added some tests on AppProtocol and improved GitHub workflows

[1.0.0] - 2022-11-21

  • The application is no longer just a command line interface: Sniffnet has now a whole graphical user interface!
    • Charts and traffic statistics are now constantly updated and shown interactively in the GUI
    • Users don't have to worry about command line options anymore: it is now possible to comfortably specify adapters and filters through the GUI
    • Sniffnet is now more accessible, available in real-time, easy to use and aesthetically pleasing thanks to its new interface
  • In order to reach out as many people as possible, I created installers for Windows, macOS and Linux, to make it easier to install Sniffnet for those that still doesn't have Rust on their machines

[0.5.0] - 2022-10-02

  • Textual report elements are now ordered by timestamp instead of number of packets
