Version 1.0 is here! 🎉
I've incremented to version 1.0 as I think it is unlikely for the core systems to undergo more major overhauls at this point. It had to hit version 1 some day :)

Overhaul launcher.py! (FINALLY)

  • overhauled scrolling graphics to use a framebuffer, now the statusbar and scrollbar don't blink out on scroll
  • broke code up into smaller functions to save memory (and make it easier to read!)
  • added quite a few constants to improve readability (and save ram!)
  • added custom 'st7789hybrid.py' for launcher-specific use
  • replaced bitmap icons with vector icons to save memory
  • added support for app icons

Added log output on launch failure to main.py
Improved copy/paste in Files app
Added 'smartkeyboard' to lib (which is now used by some built-in apps)
General bugfixes for HyDE

This update brings new modules in the library!

Specifically:

  • lib.mhconfig - a wrapper for easily working with microhydra launcher config.
  • lib.mhoverlay - tool for creating UI popups (and perhaps later, other UI overlays)
  • lib.battlevel - wrapper for reading battery level easily
    And courtesy of mavica;
  • M5Sound - can be used to play higher quality sounds.

This is a relatively small update, with just some UI improvements

  • Distinguished Confirm button from other menu options, added scroll bar, added wrap-around for settings scrolling.
  • Fixed issue with double-input when returning from menu option.
  • Added ESC to exit without saving for settings menus
  • Improved RGB hinting for color submenus

v0.5

Added battery indicator and time display in top bar, added sync_time and timezone settings, fixed settings app not turning off display
Fixed crash when hitting "reload apps" after removing an SDCard,

BREAKING CHANGES: Reworked entire Beeper module, API is slightly different, and so code that used the old version will need to be updated.

I also found what I think is causing the weird sound inconsistency. It seems that the @micropython.native and @micropython.viper decorators cause code built for the ESP32-S3 to behave strangely.
