UX update

Stable layout

• The window now has a fixed height, so it no longer resizes or jumps around while you type. The search field stays in place.
• Late file and photo results (CLIP/OCR) no longer shift the lists: apps get a fixed slot and files take the rest.
• "Searching..." is shown while the background lookup runs, instead of an empty box.

Home screen

• An empty query now shows up to 8 apps: pinned first, then most used.

Calculator and currency

• Results appear in a large card: your query on the left, the answer on the right.
• Press Enter to copy the answer and close the window.
• Currency answers are shorter: 89.61 EUR instead of 100 USD = 89.61 EUR.

Fixes

• App names are no longer cropped in the app list.

Other

• New demo gif in the README.

Merge pull request #36 from sakurartro/dev

chore: bump version to 1.0.0

v0.2.0-beta.6

Features

• Settings menu in the launcher (Alt+4 / Ctrl+,) — edits settings.json for you, with a Restart button for options that need it
• Photos view on Alt+3 — the files grid filtered to images
• File type icons and cached photo thumbnails in the files grid
• Live calculator and currency — the result shows as you type, no Enter needed
• Full name on hover when a label is truncated
• Arrow-key navigation of results (left/right in the grid views); mouse hover moves the same selection
• Apps from all XDG dirs — system, ~/.local/share, Flatpak, Snap; a user .desktop override shadows the system entry

Fixes

• Apps: launch usage and pins are blended into the search ranking
• Apps: Terminal=true desktop entries are launched in a terminal
• Apps: spec-compliant Exec parsing
• Toggle socket is per user; the files tab reloads after indexing
• OCR: shares one ONNX runtime environment with CLIP; the T(N%) badge reflects match quality
• UI: Slint layout binding loops removed

Performance

• OCR/CLIP results land ~190 ms after the last keystroke instead of ~600–900 ms: superseded queries no longer queue a text-encoder run each
• Smaller release binary: stripped, thin LTO

v0.2.0-beta.3

Changes

• Fix: launcher now closes after opening an app or file

Download

• luma_rust-x86_64 — build for x86_64 Linux (Ubuntu 24.04, glibc >= 2.38)

v0.2.0-beta.2

Changes

• Semantic photo search (CLIP) — opt-in via "semantic": true in settings.json. Models (~154 MB) are downloaded from HuggingFace on first start; photo indexing runs in the background with a progress banner, matching files show an S(N%) badge.
• Memory: CLIP indexing peak cut ~4x (smaller inference batch, arena released back to the OS after indexing); search inference moved off the UI thread — no more freezes while typing.
• README updated with the semantic setting.

Requirements note

The prebuilt binary now requires glibc ≥ 2.39 (Ubuntu 24.04+, Arch, Fedora 40+) because of the bundled ONNX runtime.

Without semantic enabled the launcher behaves exactly as before.
