v0.6.0-alpha

Alpha of Seed Hosting for Windows.

New in this release: in-app updates. Settings → App → Updates checks the official releases, downloads a newer version with progress, verifies it against the published SHA-256, and "Restart & update" replaces the app files after it closes and opens it again. (Once you install this build, future alphas can be installed from inside the app.)

Also new since v0.5.0-alpha:

• Local online accounts: register and sign in; ordinary friendships (send, accept, decline, remove)
• Username-only friends and hosting invitations; legacy invitation codes stay internal
• Server settings page: hardcore and more, with safe read-back; edits blocked while running
• Per-server dashboard pages: performance metrics (2 decimals), console, players, backups, scheduler, mods, files
• Per-server public Playit addresses with a direct join path
• Hosting groups bound per server; group disband with fresh-identity rotation
• Optional always-on PC role — creating a group no longer forces it
• Setup guide: send and accept friend requests inline

Assets: SeedHost-0.6.0-alpha-win32-x64.zip (extract anywhere, run SeedHost.exe) and SHA256SUMS.txt. Unsigned development alpha — verify the checksum; Windows may warn about an unknown publisher. This is not a production-ready Minecraft hosting service.
