ReleasePort's take
Light signalVersion v1.6.0 introduces a Metadata Bar and collapsible Properties Box in the UI, strips frontmatter from rendered markdown, protects inline code, adds GitHub Actions CI/CD for macOS .dmg builds, removes debug eprintln! output, and improves wikilink display.
Why it matters: These feature additions (Metadata Bar, Properties Box, improved wikilinks) directly enhance UI usability and readability; the bugfix eliminating debug logs cleans terminal output for all users.

Full changelog
🎉 What's New in v1.6.0
✨ Frontmatter Rendering — Metadata Bar & Enhanced Properties
Full redesign of how frontmatter appears in the viewer. Two complementary views now work together:
Metadata Bar (always visible above content)
- Title shown as a large heading with a subtle divider
- Description displayed as a subtitle
- Tags rendered as colorful pill badges (first 5 shown, "show more" for overflow)
- Status badges with semantic colors:
active(green),draft(orange),archived(gray) - Date and author shown as styled pills
Properties Box (collapsible, below content)
- Icon support (native macOS emoji + custom Unicode mappings)
- Boolean values displayed as toggle toggles (✅/❌)
- Multi-value arrays shown as stacked pills
- Smart fallback for missing icons
- All less-common properties preserved in the collapsible section
🔗 Wikilink Display Text
Wikilinks now show human-readable display text when available:
[[docs/architecture|Architecture]]renders as "Architecture" instead of "docs/architecture"- Plain
[[filename]]still links and displays the filename
🧹 Frontmatter Stripping
Frontmatter is now stripped from the rendered markdown body — it only appears in the structured UI above. No more YAML blocks mixed into your content.
🛡️ Inline Code Protection
Inline code (backtick-wrapped text) is now protected from emoji replacement and math preprocessing. Your code snippets stay exactly as written.
⚙️ GitHub Actions CI/CD
Automated release workflow now builds and publishes .dmg files on every v* tag push:
- Native macOS build (aarch64 + x86_64)
- Automatic GitHub Release creation
- DMG auto-attached to release
