✨ Added

  • Settings: Added a Keyboard Shortcuts section where you can view and rebind navigation and editor shortcuts. Shortcuts are grouped by category, conflicts are flagged, and your changes persist across sessions. Individual bindings or all defaults can be restored at any time.
  • Sidebar: Added a toggle button to hide and show the sidebar. The sidebar's visibility is saved per-vault.

Installation & Notes

  • 💻 Windows: Download the .msi file to install.
  • 🐧 Linux: Download the .AppImage (for most distributions) or the .deb / .rpm file for your package manager. For Flatpak, see below.
  • 🍎 macOS: Download the aarch64.dmg (Apple Silicon) or x64.dmg (Intel) file.

📦 Flatpak (recommended on rolling distros)

Adds Chronicler as a Flatpak remote so future updates flow through flatpak update:

flatpak install --user --from https://flatpak.chronicler.pro/chronicler.flatpakref

Or one-shot install the bundle from this release:

flatpak install --user Chronicler.flatpak

⚠️ A Note for Windows Users

When you first run the installer, Microsoft Defender may show a "Windows protected your PC" screen. This is expected because Chronicler is a new application from an independent developer and is not yet code-signed.

To proceed, simply click "More info" and then "Run anyway".

🍎 A Note for macOS Users

Chronicler for macOS is currently unsigned. The first time you open it, you will need to run a command in the Terminal.

  1. Download the .dmg file and move the app to your Applications folder.
  2. Open the Terminal app.
  3. Run this command:
    sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/chronicler.app
  4. The app will now open correctly.

🛡️ Security & Trust

While the initial installer is unsigned, all in-app updates are cryptographically signed by me. This is handled by Tauri's built-in updater, which verifies the update signature before installing it. This ensures that all future updates are authentic and have not been tampered with.
