Tine 0.8.0 is stable

[martinkoutecky]

Watch the 4.5-minute story of Tine first: https://tine.page/story/

Tine 0.8.0 is out. It is the Beta line from the last weeks made stable, so your settings, graphs and sessions carry over from 0.7.x. This is not the changelog, just what I think matters most.

1. Saving you don't have to think about. Each graph now has one background saver: every edit is saved as you type, from any window, and keeps saving after the page closes. If a file changes on disk while you have unsaved text, you get a block-by-block comparison; unsaved text survives a crash and is put back on its page at the next start.

2. Capture from your phone. Android: Tine is in the share sheet, the launcher icon offers Today, Quick capture and Search, and there is a Quick capture Quick Settings tile. iOS: a share extension and Shortcuts actions (Add to Tine journal, Search Tine, Open page), currently in the TestFlight build. Shared items land at the bottom of today's journal.

3. A command line (Linux and macOS). tine can read pages, journals, blocks and linked references, search, run queries and list pages, with text or --json output. It does not edit notes. See the Command line page in the Guide.

4. Simplified Chinese. Settings → Appearance → Language offers English and 简体中文, applied live in every window. Chinese input works better too: （（ becomes (()) and opens block search, and shortcuts work on non-Latin keyboard layouts.

5. You choose what today's journal shows. Hover today's journal and choose Customize today's sections… to create a Journal sections page; its query blocks decide what appears under today. Upcoming is off by default; add {{upcoming}} to that page to bring it back.

6. Queries that behave. Query blocks rest with a title, a count and results and edit in place. Common Logseq advanced queries are translated automatically, and config.edn journal queries are honored.

7. Smaller things you asked for. Page icons (an emoji in an icon:: property shows on the title, links and favorites), an All pages view that stays quick on very large graphs, Find in page with replace, a portable Windows ZIP that keeps all its data in a folder next to Tine.exe, and a new Soft theme palette.

Get it. Update in the app (Settings shows when a new version is out), or download from https://tine.page or the release: https://github.com/martinkoutecky/tine/releases/tag/v0.8.0. Linux (AppImage, deb, rpm, Flatpak file), macOS (dmg, or brew install --cask tine), Windows (installer or portable ZIP) and an Android APK are there; Android is also on F-Droid (once it gets there). Guide: in the app, Help. Full changelog: https://github.com/martinkoutecky/tine/blob/v0.8.0/CHANGELOG.md

What's next. 0.9 is in development; no dates, no promises.

I've been using Tine since version 0.4, and every new release feels like a breath of fresh air. Tine has always felt like such a vibrant and energetic project.

A big thank you to Martin for his continued development, and to all the passionate community members for their contributions!

[Dieterbe]

Fantastic work! It's been fun iterating super fast on the various issues and beta builds 😁

[martinkoutecky]

Yes! Let's keep going.

First of all, thanks for all your time and for this application.
I love the video. It’s very funny and interesting.
I’ve been very busy recently, but I have some bugs to report, new features to suggest, and some discussions to reply to.
I hope I’ll have some time to do it soon.

Thank you! been using it since you posted the first version.

[lingkuma]

Cheers — this is a major milestone!
Can you give the beta a new logo? The stable version and the beta are both in my taskbar, and I can’t tell them apart.
