# Changelog
All notable changes to `deskify` will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
and this project follows early MVP/alpha versioning with tags like `v0.1.0-alpha.1`.
## [Unreleased]
## [v0.1.0-alpha.5] - 2026-02-23
### Added
- `chromium` compatibility backend via `--backend chromium` using an installed Chromium-based browser in app mode (no local Tauri build for generated apps)
- `build` / `update` flags for Chromium backend selection and runtime control:
- `--backend <tauri|chromium>`
- `--browser-bin <PATH>`
- `--profile-scope <isolated|shared>`
- Chromium app install flow with XDG `.desktop` launchers and per-app metadata (`X-Deskify-Backend=chromium`)
- Optional isolated Chromium profiles under `~/.local/share/deskify/profiles/<id>`
- `doctor` now reports whether a Chromium-based browser is available in `PATH`
### Changed
- `update <id>` now keeps the internal app ID stable even when the display name changes
- `list` now derives the internal ID from the `.desktop` filename (works for both Tauri and Chromium backends)
- `remove` now also cleans up Chromium profile directories (when present)
- `update` keeps Chromium isolated profiles by default to preserve sessions/cookies during reinstall
### Fixed
- Tauri wrapper generation now consistently uses the existing internal ID for generated app identifiers (prevents accidental ID drift during updates)
- `.desktop` command generation for Chromium backend now escapes arguments (URLs / user agents with spaces or special characters)
### Documentation
- README now documents backend modes (`tauri` vs `chromium`) and recommends `--backend chromium` for sites that fail in the system WebView backend
- Added Chromium backend usage examples (`--browser-bin`, `--profile-scope`) and updated compatibility notes
### Added
- `build --no-decorations` option to create frameless windows (`decorations: false`) for kiosk/dashboard-style setups
- README screenshots for KDE/Arch showing launcher integration, running app window, and `deskify list` workflow
### Fixed
- Icon handling now normalizes downloaded and custom icons to RGBA PNG before Tauri build (prevents `icon ... is not RGBA` build failures)
## [v0.1.0-alpha.2] - 2026-02-23
### Fixed
- Resolved a CI failure caused by Clippy (`items_after_test_module`) by moving the test module to the end of `src/main.rs`
### Changed
- No functional CLI behavior changes; this is a release/CI correctness follow-up to `v0.1.0-alpha.1`
## [v0.1.0-alpha.1] - 2026-02-23
### Added
- Initial public MVP/alpha release of `deskify` (Linux-only)
- CLI commands:
- `deskify build --url <URL> --name <NAME>`
- `deskify list`
- `deskify remove <internal-id>`
- `build` supports advanced options:
- `--icon`
- `--fullscreen`
- `--user-agent`
- `--dark-mode`
- `--width`
- `--height`
- Tauri-based wrapper generation in a temporary build directory
- XDG desktop integration:
- installs wrapper binary into local executable directory (`~/.local/bin` fallback)
- creates `.desktop` launcher in `~/.local/share/applications`
- installs app icon into `~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps`
- Automatic favicon download from Google Favicon API with dummy-icon fallback
- `.desktop` metadata marker (`X-Deskify-Managed=true`) for more reliable app discovery
- Unit tests for:
- app ID sanitization
- `remove` ID validation
- Deskify desktop entry detection (marker + legacy fallback)
- GitHub CI workflow (`cargo fmt --check`, `cargo clippy`, `cargo test`, `cargo check`)
- Tag-based GitHub Release workflow to upload a Linux `deskify` CLI binary
- GitHub PR template and release-note categorization config
### Changed
- `tauri.conf.json` generation now uses structured JSON serialization (`serde_json`) instead of manual string interpolation
- App discovery in `list` prefers the Deskify marker and keeps a legacy heuristic fallback for older installs
- Documentation updated for alpha/MVP positioning, known limitations, smoke tests, and release tagging (`v0.1.0-alpha.N`)
### Fixed
- `remove` now validates internal IDs and rejects unsafe values (for example path traversal inputs like `../foo`)
- Generated Tauri config creation is more robust for names/URLs/user agents containing special characters
