A special thanks to the amazing volunteer translators and testers who made this release possible.

  • New Features:

  • Bug Fixes / Improvements:
    • Cwtch is now based on Flutter 3.22
    • Cwtch on Linux now uses the Flutter-provided fl_dart_project_set_aot_library_path method (contributed by Dan), rather than our own custom solution.
    • File Download verification attempts with incomplete/missing manifests will now allow attempt to redownload the manifest rather than emitting an error.

    • Importing Unencrypted Profiles no longer requires entering the defecto password

One of the larger remaining goals outlined in our Cwtch Stable roadmap update is comprehensive developer documentation. We have recently spent some time writing the foundation for these documents.

In this devlog we will introduce some of them, and outline the next steps. We also have a new nightly Cwtch release available for testing!

We are very interested in getting feedback on these documents, and we encourage anyone who is excited to build a Cwtch Bot, or even an alternative UI, to read them over and reach out to us with comments, questions, and suggestions!
