Changelog

features

• Start work to deprecating dnd-kit and have our own lighter internal drag and drop engine
• Keep the engine generic enough to allow it to be used for pinned items/checklists/sidebar
• Migrate the entirety of Kanban to use said engine
• Update styling of Kanban item modal to look a bit less chaotic
• Update Kanban item modal to grow full width/height so there's more space to work with
• Add Start Date to tasks so calendar view allows tasks to expand from start to end date (bit like google calendar)
• Improve neural network on the settings page, from a hardcoded vector style link system to a full blown obsidian-like view of the nodes, it also uses tags now for linking (you can disable the checkbox if needed). I figured I'd push it, I worked on it a while ago and for the life of me I don't know why I didn't just go for it, it's hidden in the settings, doesn't touch anything else and I feel like it's a nice feature to have, so even if it's a bit buggy we can fix forward ❤️
• Add "Archive All" option to Kanban columns that have autocomplete enabled - Thank you @reniko
• Add consistent scrollbar across all browser/OS - Thank you @reniko
• Add remember me toggle to login page #516

bugfixes

• Fix re-ordering children items in checklists (it was quite clunky) - Thank you @reniko
• Fix potential issue around session write on slower disk read #522
• Add shared checklists to api endpoint #521
• Fix issue where not enough items were showing in the @ bidirectional linking #529
• Mermaid sankey changed key in the latest upgrade when mermaid was bumped to 10.x #528
• Fix missing "save before leaving the page" modal in some places and automatically save excalidraw on modal close #519
• Add Kanban status actions to card detail and overflow menu - Thank you @reniko
• Finally officially fix the body size limit pain, this means the patch for it has also been removed. Make sure to update the hardcoded limit in settings -> app preferences -> upload limit of course. - Thank you @dmca-glasgow !

security

• As always kept on top of all the third party dependency advisories, man you can tell Fable 5 was released, there was a huge spike in CVE in a lot of my project third party deps lol

new endpoints

A community member decided to make an android client for Jotty.
It's very much under development and needs polishing but the author seems quite dedicated and I kept an eye on development.

They needed some endpoints for it to work better, so what better moment than this to give them a shoutout!
Check it out here if you are interested, I am not involved in the development, I can't vouch for it, but for what I've seen so far the author (@Darknetzz) is pretty dedicated! Link here: https://github.com/Darknetzz/jotty-android
