WhatsApp Web Wrapper v0.1.1

This patch release fixes desktop notification popups, bundles the full GStreamer media framework for universal audio support in AppImages, and introduces engine-level script initialization for seamless WhatsApp Web integration.


Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Native D-Bus Notification Popups: Resolved an issue where message arrival played sounds without showing system popups. Added a complete ES6 EventTarget polyfill, navigator.permissions.query mock, and Service Worker notification bridging with serialized JSON IPC communication.
  • Self-Contained Media Framework: Enabled bundleMediaFramework in the AppImage packaging configuration, eliminating autoaudiosink not found and NULL pointer assertions. Voice notes and alert audio now work out-of-the-box on all Linux distributions.
  • Zero-Latency Script Initialization: Migrated user scripts to Tauri's engine-level initialization_script, guaranteeing that notification hooks and permission overrides execute at millisecond zero before WhatsApp scripts evaluate.
  • Wayland & KDE Plasma 6 Stability: Hardened window management routines and enabled controlled DMA-BUF rendering to prevent white screens or compositor lockups.
