- Apps can be launched directly from file paths (including Files app support)
- Added executable detection to identify unsupported or invalid binaries before launch.
- App startup is now streamlined through separate registered-app and direct-execution interfaces.
- Existing app launch points were migrated to the updated startup APIs.
- Apps can specify task stack depth and preferred memory placement in their manifests.
- App identifiers are validated against length and character requirements.
- Crash diagnostics now show the crash cause, reason, fault address, call stack, and program-counter details, with logs saved for review.
- App closing is more consistent across built-in screens. There's now a dedicated function, and the old _emit() function is made private.
- Crash diagnostics no longer display a QR code without a call stack.
- Improved memory allocation for unrestricted requests.
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.
- Auto-select widgets in Launcher and apps with toolbars on devices without touch.
- Improved USB HID input reliability, cleanup
- Updated PSRAM settings to improve boot stability on supported devices.
- Prevented duplicate Wi-Fi event subscriptions during screen rebuilds.
- Updated docs
- Fixes in WifiManage and WifiConnect
- Reduced main task stack size
- Moved USB HID stack size to PSRAM when available
- app_manager_find_manifest() now returns a copy instead of a pointer
* **Documentation**
* Added new C coding style guide detailing naming conventions for files, directories, macros, constants, variables, functions, and type definitions with illustrative examples.
* Updated C++ coding style documentation with clarifications on C naming conventions and header directory organization patterns.
* **Refactor**
* Updated header include paths throughout the codebase to use lowercase naming conventions consistently.
* **New Features**
* Time and delay utilities added (ticks, ms, µs); SD card now uses an expansion-header CS pin; HTTP downloads warn when run on the GUI task and yield to avoid blocking.
* **Bug Fixes / Reliability**
* Many hard-crash paths converted to guarded checks to reduce abrupt termination and improve stability.
* **Tests**
* Unit tests added to validate time and delay accuracy.
* **Chores**
* License header and build/macro updates.
- Added `AppHub` app
- Added `AppHubDetails` app
- Added `cJSON` dependency
- Renamed `AppSim` module to `FirmwareSim`
- Added extra `tt::app::alertdialg::start()`
- Renamed `addApp()`, `removeApp()`, `findAppById()` and `getApps()` to `addAppManifest()`, `removeAppManifest()`, `findAppManifestById()` and `getAppManifests()`
- Added `tt::lvgl::toolbar_clear_actions()`
- Added `tt::network::EspHttpClient` as a thread-safe wrapper around `esp_http_client`
- Added `tt::network::http::download()` to download files
- Added `tt::network::ntp::isSynced()`
- When time is synced, the timestamp is stored in NVS flash. On boot, it is restored. This helps SSL connections when doing a quick reset: when WiFi reconnects, the user doesn't have to wait for NTP sync before SSL works.
- Added `tt::json::Reader` as a `cJSON` wrapper
- Added `int64_t` support for `Preferences`
- Added `int64_t` support for `Bundle`
- Added dependencies: `cJSON`, `esp-tls`
- When time is synced via NTP, disable time sync.
- Added docs to 'tt::file::` functions
- Added `tt::string::join()` that works with `std::vector<const char*>`
- Fixed `tt::file::getLastPathSegment()` for the scenario when a path was passed with only a single segment
- Set `CONFIG_ESP_MAIN_TASK_STACK_SIZE=5120` (from about 3k) for all boards
- Set `CONFIG_MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3=y` for all boards
