Apex v0.9.0

Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 25 Aug 02:04

What's Changed

New Features

  • apex CLI: a command-line tool lives next to the app. apex status reports daemon health without waking it, apex start and apex stop control the daemon, apex notify raises a desktop notice, and apex uninstall removes Apex and asks what to keep.
  • System tray: Apex gets a real tray icon. Closing the window can leave the app in the tray, and the icon follows the menu bar style. A setting picks what closing the window actually does.
  • Daemon you can tame: the idle watchdog can stand down for good, the grace period stretches to five minutes or five hours, and there's a stop button next to the daemon setting plus a "keep it up until you stop it" toggle.
  • Drag-to-reorder the dock: sidebar panels can be dragged into a new order, dropped past the line to send them to a tab, and reordered by keyboard too.

Improvements

  • The product is now apex desktop in the about card, with the main binary renamed so the CLI can own the apex name.
  • The AppImage installs as apex-desktop and clears the old apex binary.
  • The daemon reports uptime, the moment it went idle, and how many clients are connected.
