Island v2.8.0

Island v2.8.0

An island for Windows — attached to the top of your screen, it hosts your tools
(media, timer, clipboard, Bitwarden vault, launcher, notifications, …) and
isolated, signed extensions.

What's new in 2.8.0 — extensions for developers

• New extension permissions:
  • files: an extension only sees the folders you give it in Island's own dialog (list, read, open with the associated app).
  • terminal (shown in red): run commands in a Windows Terminal tab, with your default profile's shell (Git Bash, PowerShell…) or one you pick.
  • docker (shown in red): the local Docker Engine API (start, stop, restart containers).
• Launcher: an extension prefix ending in : sticks to the query, like Island's own (p:game).
• Projects extension, in the store: Unreal (build the editor target then launch the editor, like “Start without debugging”), Node (npm scripts in Windows Terminal), Docker Compose (containers, up / down). Search them with p: in the launcher.
