As we said, before the release we must check everything :rocket:
In this release there will be a lot of changes:
- plugins
- repo
- community refactor
- transform css into preset
- maybe i missed something :1st_place_medal: ??
I want to create another ui polish request, so if you are not against we can release after it ;)
I'm not against :+1:. I'm so glad, i've added maybe the most requested feature ...
Small but important, there is no icon in app launcher for .Devel version, and launching from CLI only is not best option 😄
