Glitchpad v0.1.4

Glitchpad v0.1.4 Brand and Shell Release

Glitchpad v0.1.4 packages the completed BrandBuilder 2.0.3 integration and AppFrame layout work on all four supported platforms. It follows the v0.1.3 corrective release and keeps the stable text-family support matrix.

What changed

• The application shell uses the governed BrandBuilder AppFrame for safe areas, display cutouts, orientation, text scaling, menu geometry, and on-screen-keyboard insets.
• The formal Glitchpad brand 1.1.1 kit refreshes Android launcher artwork and supplies separate ordinary and maskable web icons. The approved square identity and existing Windows and macOS icon binaries remain consistent with that kit.
• The public site and package assets use the pinned kit with exact-copy and conformance checks.
• Compatible npm, Cargo, and Gradle wrapper updates are included after their platform checks pass.
• The already merged S039 and S040 image preview, inspection, animation, and selected ICO export code is present in the application. Image formats remain outside the stable support matrix and operating-system associations until the v0.2.0 conformance and activation work in #75 and #76 is complete.

Issue and change traceability

• #194 and #195 delivered the S039 and S040 image implementation without stable image activation.
• #197 delivered the AppFrame shell and its desktop and Android geometry evidence.
• #205 closed #202, #203, and #204 through S042 by importing the formally released BrandBuilder kit and refreshing platform assets.
• #199 updated the Gradle wrapper, #207 updated the Tauri Rust crates, and #208 updated compatible npm packages after their CI checks passed.
• #75 and #76 remain open for stable image conformance and activation. #66 remains open for post-release manual and physical-device validation.

Packages and trust states

The release contains eight application packages: an unsigned Windows NSIS installer and portable ZIP, a universal macOS DMG with an ad-hoc signature that is not notarized, Linux AppImage and Debian packages with repository attestations, and Android universal APK, ARM64 APK, and AAB packages signed by the existing project-owned update key. Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper may warn because this community release does not use paid platform trust programs.

Each package has SHA-256 checksums, software-bill-of-materials data, provenance, license notices, the source revision, and machine-readable trust evidence. Desktop evidence bundles bind practical-use receipts to final package manifests. The Android matrix retains API 24 and API 36 provider-backed delivery checks.

Supported capabilities and limits

The stable support claim remains local Markdown, Mermaid, plain-text, and recognized source files with view, edit, save, search, inspection, recovery, and compact multi-document behaviors. Image implementations are included for in-app use but are not declared stable or associated with operating-system file openers in this release. PDF, DOCX, and ODT remain planned. The application has no account, telemetry, or file-content network dependency, and remote document resources remain blocked.

Installation and feedback

Download packages from the official GitHub release, verify SHA256SUMS for SHA-256 integrity, and review the platform trust evidence before installation. Report defects through the repository issue tracker. Manual real-world validation remains post-release work tracked by issue #66.

Release boundary

This document is the v0.1.4 release-note authority. Publication uses the exact reviewed release merge commit and its annotated v0.1.4 tag. The published v0.1.3 release and its historical records remain unchanged.
