Description It's been fun!

I had way less free time to work on hyper than what i wanted to, but it turned out to be a good thing.
By having less hours i decided to focus on specific parts of it, and making them work properly from the start, resulting in less "i have to rewrite this now.." to more "Cool! this works properly, i should move to another part"

My last deviation was focused on showing that we had settings working for the first time.


Now hyper can do a lot more.

     

    • Widget manager & Installer: Widgets can now be installed by dragging a zip file, planning to also allow one-click style installations.
       
    • Making widgets Widgets can now be easily made with javascript/typescript, no one needs to look at Hyper "inner code" to figure out anything, one of the concerns is making hyper easier for everyone.

     

    • Hot reloading: I got tired of refreshing or relaunching hyper to see my changes.

     

    • New C# service Everything related to the WindowsAPI is now done by a C# event emitter, gracefully done by Borgor & currently being improved and extended by Z i N#2918 (github.com/Zinvoke ) - This watcher is also disabled when not using window specific features more performance!

     

    • Communication Hyper opens a Websocket connection for IPC communication, allowing virtually any software to communicate with hyper, endless posibilities



TL;DR: More people came to the project, hyperbar can now manage and run modules properly (called widgets) and same goes for themes, you might see me sending a BETA RELEASE soon here on deviantart.
