What's new in 0.7.1

  • Demo mode has its history back. Since 0.4.0 the statement that writes seeded and imported rollups still named an index that release had replaced, so it could not run at all and every seeded row was lost in silence. Demo mode showed live traffic and nothing else.
  • Every screenshot on this site is new, taken from demo data by a script rather than by hand, so they can be regenerated whenever the app changes.
  • Search and sharing metadata — structured data describing the application, a designed link preview instead of a raw screenshot, and a sitemap that says when each page last changed.
  • A new icon. A prism: one stream in, separated into what it is actually made of, with the point of observation marked. The waveform and its two arrows said “bandwidth meter” and competed with each other at Dock and menu sizes; the sizes below 64px are now drawn separately rather than shrunk.
  • Plainer language throughout the app, the README and the site — what Flowlight observes and records, stated without overclaiming.
  • Ask keeps its suggestions. They wrap onto as many rows as they need instead of scrolling out of sight, stay put after the first question, and the field is three lines tall.
  • The documentation contents reads as groups rather than as one run of twenty-nine links.
