EDITH v0.1.0-alpha.5

This Alpha adds official release checks and a clearer sidebar footer.

What’s new

  • Open Updates at the bottom of the sidebar to see the installed version, check for a newer release, read release notes, and open the download page.
  • Automatically check official duckfollow/edith GitHub releases after startup, at most once per day. Manual checks bypass that interval.
  • Alpha builds receive newer alpha and stable releases; stable builds receive stable releases only. Drafts and invalid version tags are ignored.
  • Show a New badge when an update is available, along with the last successful check time and useful connection/rate-limit errors.
  • Keep Updates at the bottom while the tool list scrolls independently.
  • Replace duplicate footer version labels and the static Offline workspace label with compact EDITH branding and one version badge.
  • Include companion links for Dum-E, Ultron, and u.

Download and installation

  • Apple Silicon Macs (arm64), macOS 13.5 or later.
  • Download EDITH_0.1.0-alpha.5_aarch64.dmg, quit EDITH, open the DMG, and replace EDITH in Applications.
  • Finish active debugging work and stop listeners before quitting. Existing application settings are retained.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt contains the installer checksum.
  • The app bundles its local Node.js runtime; no separate Node installation is required.
  • Downloads and installation remain manual. Update checks send the EDITH version to GitHub without workspace traffic, logs, or credentials.
  • The app is ad-hoc signed, not Developer ID signed or Apple notarized. macOS may block downloaded builds; see the installation guide.
  • Intel Macs, Windows, and Linux installers are not included in this release.

Validation

  • 63 frontend/service tests passed, including runtime IPC, local services, access controls, storage, appearance, and close handling.
  • 9 native unit tests passed, including release selection and release-note handling.
  • TypeScript and production frontend build passed.
  • Native arm64 app and DMG built with the bundled official Node runtime.
  • App signature and DMG integrity verified before upload.
  • Opened the packaged app without Vite and manually checked GitHub releases successfully.

This remains an Alpha. Independent installation testing on another Mac remains pending.

EDITH v0.1.0-alpha.4

A new look for EDITH, plus a fix for closing the desktop window.

What's new

  • New smart-glasses logo with mint frames on graphite, styled to match the Dum-E app family.
  • Updated sidebar, login branding, browser favicons, macOS Dock icon, and desktop icon assets.
  • Reproducible SVG-to-desktop icon generation.

Fixes

  • Fixed the desktop Close button failing to close the window.
  • Closing now waits for System Proxy restoration and completes the original close request, without recursive Close calls.
  • Repeated close clicks are handled while cleanup is pending.
  • If proxy restoration fails or administrator approval is cancelled, EDITH stays open, displays the reason, and allows retry.

Installation

Apple Silicon Mac · macOS 13.5 or later

  1. Download EDITH_0.1.0-alpha.4_aarch64.dmg below.
  2. Stop any active proxy and quit the previous EDITH version.
  3. Open the DMG and drag EDITH into Applications, replacing the previous version.
  4. Launch EDITH from Applications.

The app includes its local runtime; Node.js, npm, and the project folder are not required. Existing installed-app workspace data stays in the same application data folder. Replacing the app does not automatically import development workspace data.

Validation

  • 63 desktop tests, 6 native Rust tests, and 8 SDK tests passed.
  • Frontend type checking and production build passed.
  • Regression coverage includes closing without recovery, waiting for restoration, duplicate close clicks, cancellation/failure, and retry.
  • SHA-256 checksums are included in SHA256SUMS.txt.

Alpha notes

  • The macOS build is ad-hoc signed and has not been notarized by Apple.
  • HTTPS inspection requires manually trusting the local CA.
  • Windows/Linux installers and OS packet capture are not included.

Changes: v0.1.0-alpha.3...v0.1.0-alpha.4
