New in NightPDF 1.2.7 (May 5, 2023)
- Experience changes:
- First this release fixes printing! This resolves a issues that I noticed about 2 releases ago(I suspect this has been broken even longer possible even in the js version).
- Next this release fixes the cli so now we can resolve relative paths.
- Finally this adds a better --version output.
- Development changes:
- For the preload and main process now format is explicitly set to cjs which allows devs to use import instead of require.
- In the UI, sass is used to bundle css instead of using gulp concat
New in NightPDF 1.2.6 (May 5, 2023)
- Update deps and various changes to the build system as well ignore more files.

New in NightPDF 1.2.5 (May 2, 2023)
- use yarn stable for flatpak
New in NightPDF 1.2.4 (May 1, 2023)
- One of the biggest issue with updating deps in nightpdf has been PDFjs as the node package doesn't include the viewer. This has been solved by adding a .pdfjs_version .pdfjs_version that tracks the pdfjs version(this will be included in the ASAR for debugging purposes) and a script to update the pdfjs version which will not be included.
New in NightPDF 1.2.3 (Apr 26, 2023)
New in NightPDF 1.2.2 (Apr 26, 2023)
- Proposed features in #18 have been implemented
- fixes #17
- various dependencies have been updated along with ci which should now cache deps
New in NightPDF 1.2.0 (Apr 26, 2023)
- yet another switch to a new build system, instead of roll up we use gulp with esbuild and various tasks. I have discovered the issue with windows builds!. as our electron-build config was written in js it needs to be executed. now the expected way is that electron-builder.js is executed in node like linux and mac os. on windows it tries to execute in "windows script host" but windows script host doesn't have a node api and fails to execute the electron-builder config and creates a pop up. since we cannot see the pop up it appears as if the build has hung perpetually.
- The evil pop up
New in NightPDF 1.0.8 (Mar 27, 2023)
- a ton of deps had an update I hope things builds now :/
New in NightPDF 1.0.7 (Mar 7, 2023)
New in NightPDF 1.0.6 (Mar 6, 2023)
New in NightPDF 1.0.5 (Feb 19, 2023)
- switched to swc over typescript under the hood for rollup which reduces build times and fixes a issue where the filename would not showup when you opened a new file! be gone typescript! all hail swc
New in NightPDF 1.0.4 (Feb 19, 2023)
- I noticed the asar was bundling a bunch of directories and files that weren't needed eg:
- app/*
- readme.md
- eslint.cjs
- now electron builder won't bundle these so the end result is a smaller and I mean much smaller app. due to rollup bundling all the deps we don't even bundle things like icons since they are automatically included by rollup!
New in NightPDF 1.0.3 (Feb 19, 2023)
- bundle html with rollup and upgrade electron
New in NightPDF 1.0.2 (Feb 15, 2023)

New in NightPDF 0.4.6 (Feb 10, 2023)

New in NightPDF 0.4.5 (Feb 7, 2023)
