v4.0.1

  🩹 Fixes

• Daemon survives closing the terminal: the daemon is now spawned detached from the console, so it keeps monitoring in the background even after the terminal window is closed, instead of being terminated with it. 🡥

  📦 Distribution

• Release zip bundles an AMDlert/ folder: the archive now contains a ready-to-move folder with the executable inside, so the whole app can be dropped into C:/Program Files/ as-is. 🡥

  🎨 Style

• Siren emoji in the warning title: the overheat alert now opens with a 🚨 prefix for extra visibility. 🡥

v4.0.0

  📢 BREAKING CHANGES

• Complete rewrite in Rust: the app has been fully rewritten from Go to Rust. It now ships as a single AMDlert.exe that covers both the interactive CLI and the background daemon — no separate daemon binary anymore. 🡥
• Config format changed: settings are now stored in config.json instead of the old config.yml. 🡥
• Fan speed alerts removed: monitoring now focuses on temperature only, keeping the app simpler. 🡥

  ⚡ Performance

• ~32× smaller binary and faster startup: the Rust rewrite combined with a size-optimized release profile (opt-level = "z", LTO, single codegen unit) dramatically shrinks the executable and speeds it up. 🡥

  🎨 Style

• Cleaner CLI menu: the interactive menu was made more concise. 🡥

v3.0.2

  🩹 Fixes

• Reliable startup config loading: the daemon now always reads config.yml from the executable directory, so custom temperature thresholds no longer get lost when AMDAlertDaemon.exe is launched from Windows startup with a different working directory. 🡥

v0.3.0

  🎁 Features

• Interactive CLI menu: added daemon control and GPU information display directly in the command-line interface. 🡥
• Custom temperature limits: configuration now supports maxTemp and maxFanOffTemp settings loaded from config.json. 🡥
• Configuration management: daemon now monitors external changes to config.json and reloads automatically during runtime. 🡥
• Temperature threshold configuration: added interactive prompts to set maximum temperature and maximum fan-off temperature from the CLI. 🡥
• Configuration visibility: current temperature and fan-off temperature settings now display in the CLI interface. 🡥

v0.2.0

  🎁 Features

• GPU fan and temperature alerts: the application now shows alerts if GPU temperature exceeds 40°C and the fan is not spinning, or if temperature exceeds 60°C. 🡥
• Display GPU fan speed: added support for reading and printing GPU fan speed (RPM) every 10 seconds together with temperature. 🡥
