Welcome to the November 2024 edition of the monthly newsletter.
UntitledDesktop
Preparing for the UntitledImGuiFramework 1.0
The 1.0 release of the UntitledImGuiFramework is now being actively worked on, and we're planning on releasing release candidates by the end of the month, to the middle of December.
Current missing features since 0.9.9.0:
- UntitledFontUtils 1.0
- Fixing critical lingering issues with the UntitledDBusUtils library
- Packaging the framework for more Linux distributions
- End-to-end testing and documentation updates
UntitledDBusUtils 1.1 & 1.2
The 1.1 and 1.2 releases of the UntitledDBusUtils library will fix 2 major breakages that impact many types of applications.
UntitledFontUtils 0.5
The UntitledFontUtils 0.5 release will provide us a with a library for easily fetching system fonts in a cross-platform manner, which is really important for applications that need support for multiple languages that may not want to vendor in their own fonts.
This version will only be returning raw data from the OS, though, so the fonts list would look more like dropdowns in text editing applications, that allow you to select what font to show. The fonts are there, but they're not ordered correctly, and are not combined to form a coherent multilingual font atlas.
Desktop packaging
By the end of November the UntitledDesktopEnvironment will be fully packaged in the following packaging formats:
- DEBs
- RPMs
- Arch Linux PKGBUILDs
- Gentoo Linux
Meanwhile, we're working on a system that can automatically update those packages in a CI-friendly way.
