- Added POSIX desktop support for SDK builds, application packaging, and integration testing.
- Added POSIX filesystem partitions and improved application path handling.
- Added simulator support for loading and running applications dynamically.
- Improved simulator task stack handling and display startup reliability.
- Improved simulator display scaling, resizing, high-DPI support, and pointer accuracy.
- Fixed LVGL timers and input polling on POSIX. (fixes simulator with Linux on some Intel graphics platforms)
- Standardized data paths across platforms.
- Logging now works via separate task: this allows apps to write to log without it affecting their stdout (for apps that output text as relevant date for other apps, like the File Selection app)
- Fixes for app stdio
- Removed TactilityC, moved its symbols to existing modules and several new ones (pthread-module, c-symbols-module, cpp-symbols-module, posix-symbols-module, freertos-module).
- Removed Firmware subproject and moved main() into Tactility subproject.
- Strengthened application archive, path, version, stack-size, and device validation.
- Moved symbol resolution for elf_loader to app-esp32-module.
- Improved `struct Module` declarations and made module and symbol definitions in modules more consistent.
- Removed old http download code from Tactility subproject.
- Rename app-module's source files for consistency.
- Add missing pthread symbols.
- Kernel module symbols are now resolvable on all platforms.
- Enable BT by default in DTS, and create separate radio on/of functionality (like recent Wi-Fi changes)
- Bluetooth event handling now uses queued subscriptions, improving event delivery and application responsiveness.
- Improved synchronization of Bluetooth advertising, connections, HID, MIDI, and SPP operations.
- Enhanced cleanup during Bluetooth shutdown and subscription removal.
- Clarified Bluetooth start and stop behavior.
- Improved wifi driver subscription stability to prevent endless loops
Event handling:
- Added unified event handling for application, system, and Wi‑Fi events.
- Updated all apps to reflect event handling changes
Wi-Fi:
- Refactored event handling from listener interface to task & event group.
- Added direct Wi‑Fi radio controls and improved event subscriptions.
- Wi‑Fi screens now refresh asynchronously and handle unavailable devices more gracefully.
- Enabled Wi‑Fi by default on in dts files, but radio on/off is still done by code. The main reason was reliable event subscription and consistent devicetree states.
- Improved Wi‑Fi shutdown cleanup and radio-state handling.
Other:
- Renamed the Kernel Display app to Display.
**New Features**
* Runtime font accessors and new symbol fonts for text, launcher, statusbar, and shared icons.
* Added font height base setting to device.properties
* Text fonts now have 3 sizes: small, default, large
**Improvements**
* Renamed `UiScale` to `UiDensity`
* Statusbar, toolbar and many UI components now compute heights and spacing from fonts/density.
* SSD1306 initialization sequence refined for more stable startup.
* Multiple image assets replaced by symbol-font rendering.
* Many layout improvements related to density, font scaling and icon scaling
* Updated folder name capitalization for newer style
