Firmware build variants are being simplified!

[uxjulia]

With SD card font downloads working more reliably, CrossInk is starting a phased move toward a single firmware build. The first step is removing the no_emoji build because the upcoming release won't fit 😢 .

If you currently use no_emoji, update to the tiny build instead. Note: Once v1.3.4 is released, if you perform an OTA update from version 1.3.3 or earlier, you will automatically get the tiny build. To keep the same downloaded reader font-size range that no_emoji used (10, 12, 14, 16, 18pt), go to Settings > Reader > Download Font Size Range and set it to no_emoji. You can also build your own fonts with any font size you want with Crosspoint's Font Builder. For those too lazy to use the font builder, I've also included the compiled .cpfont files in the crossink-fonts github. Just download them and put them on your SD card in the .fonts or fonts folder.

In later releases, teensy and xlarge will also be retired. After that, tiny will become the default firmware build and the release artifact will eventually be renamed from firmware-tiny-*.bin to just firmware.bin. To prepare for this change, if you are using the built-in fonts, start downloading your preferred font sizes for those NOW. All 3 of the built-in fonts are available for download through Manage Fonts. Set your preferred downloaded font sizes with the Download Font Size Range setting.

tldr; no_emoji, xlarge, teensy builds are going away. tiny will become the new default. If you are using the built-in fonts, start migrating TODAY! If you mainly use SD card fonts in these builds then there is little to no impact. If you have any questions, let me know!

Just for clarification, if we currently use tiny with default fonts, we won't need to change anything for future releases?

[uxjulia]

Correct, tiny users don't need to do anything. Eventually the name tiny will be removed and it'll just be the default. There is the possibility in the future that I'll need to remove some built-in font sizes and fonts to make room for new features, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

New features like small caps? 😉 The work you're doing is VERY much appreciated, Julia! CrossInk just keeps getting better and better!
