🚀 ShizuCoreFetch v2.0.0 (Stable Release) - The UI Revolution, Jetpack Compose & Material Design 3!
Hello to the Shizu CoreFetch community,
Today, we are thrilled to release update v2.0.0—a monumental leap forward! We've rebuilt the app from the ground up to deliver the experience you deserve. This update represents a massive shift in performance, speed, and aesthetics. ✨
🎨 The Compose Revolution (UI/UX): We made the tough but necessary decision to abandon the legacy Fragments architecture. Moving away from the old mix of outlines and MD3, we transitioned fully to modern, responsive Jetpack Compose layouts. Overcoming initial hesitation, it took 3 weeks of intense focus and precision to bring this vision to life, resulting in what we believe is the app's best visual state yet!
⚡ Under the Hood & Shizuku Power: The store is now powered by a new Cloud Engine connecting directly to GitHub for faster, stable updates. We've also achieved deeper, more stable integration with Shizuku for silent background app installations, alongside a built-in live announcements bridge to keep you informed.
🔧 Refinements & Material Design 3: Say goodbye to old outlines! Enjoy dynamic colors, fluid shimmer animations, and seamless screen transitions. We've also introduced smart numbers (e.g., 1.5K, 2M), cleaner Pro Badges, perfect RTL/LTR localization, and a transparency dialog explaining GitHub API limits to respect your privacy.
🗣️ We Want Your Feedback: Because this is a complete UI rebuild, the GitHub community's opinion is crucial. We invite you to share your suggestions, open discussions, and help us refine this new Compose experience!
🙏 Special Thanks & Community Credits: A massive shoutout to @tomekkowal197 and @xLexip! Your dedicated time, rigorous testing, and precise visual feedback were instrumental. You helped build a clear mental model of the UI and architecture before the Kotlin coding even began. This update wouldn't be the same without your volunteer work.
