This release includes all features that were previously exclusive to the Insiders edition. These features are now freely available to everyone.

Note on deprecated plugins: The projects and typeset plugins are included in this release, but must be considered deprecated. Both plugins proved unsustainable to maintain and represent architectural dead ends. They are provided as-is without ongoing support.
