- Refactor `AppManifest`: add new fields and rename existing ones
- Parse and validate the manifest from an app that is being installed.
- Remove deprecated `scoped()` from `Lock`
- Create `Tactility/Paths.h`
- App loading at boot now properly parses the manifest files of external apps
- Properly lock both source and destination locations during app install
- Remove LVGL path variants from `AppPaths` and `ServicePaths`
- Removed `xPath` base classes for apps and services. There's now `AppPaths` and `ServicePaths`.
- Renamed app and service paths: "data" and "system" paths are now "user data" and "assets"
- Implement `UiScale` in `hal::Configuration`: small screens with no touch can now opt for a more optimized experience (e.g. Cardputer, Waveshare 1.47, Waveshare 1.3", etc.)
- Fix for Cardputer UART configuration and added I2C configuration
- Fix for software keyboard bug in Gui
- Removed deprecated fields from `hal::Configuration`
- Updated the simulator devices to use the new HAL config
- add `bool tt::hal::hasDevice(Device::Type)`
- Cleanup of `AppList` app code
- Improve `Gpio` app for small screen devices
- Added various ESP32 GCC wrappers to wrap LVGL functions (with manipulations for small screen devices)
- Moved `Launcher` assets to `assets/` subfolder
- Optimized `Toolbar` for small screen devices
- Stop showing `system/` partition in `FileBrowser` because it's read-only and not very useful. Created `config::SHOW_SYSTEM_PARTITION` to override this behaviour.
- Hide apps when their required hardware isn't available (I2C, UART, PowerDevice)
- Fix for `CYD-2432S032C` DPI setting
- Updated all boards to use `hal::Configuration.createDevices`
- Updated all boards to use new directory structure and file naming convention
- Refactored `Xpt2046SoftSpi` driver.
- Created `Axp2101Power` device in `Drivers/AXP2101`
- Removed global static instances from some drivers (instances that kept a reference to the Device*)
- Improved `SystemInfoApp` UI: better memory labels, hide external memory bar when there's no PSRAM
- Fix for HAL: register touch devices after displays are registered
- Fix for Boot splash hanging on WiFi init: unlock file lock after using it
- Add app path get() functions to `TactilityC`
- Improved `Dispatcher` and `DispatcherThread`
- Improved `PubSub` (type safety)
- Created test for `DispatcherThread` and `PubSub`
- Save properties files on app exit (various apps) by posting it to the main dispatcher (fixes UI hanging briefly on app exit)
- Fixed bug with `SystemSettings` being read from the wrong file path.
- `loadPropertiesFile()` now uses `file::readLines()` instead of doing that manually
- Increased timer task stack size (required due to issues when reading a properties file for the very first time)
- General cleanup
- Created `EstimatedPower` driver that uses an ADC pin to measure voltage and estimate the battery charge that is left.
- Cleanup of T-Deck board (updated to new style)
## Launcher
- Launcher now has optional power button to show
- Launcher layout improvements
- Removed text from Launcher (translations with larger amounts of text did not fit small device formats)
## T-Lora Pager
- Implement power off (created `BQ25896` driver)
- Implemented haptics (created `DRV2605` driver project) and buzz on startup
- Reversed scroll wheel
- Created `TloraEncoder` device and relocated its logic from `TloraKeyboard`
- Disabled SPIRAM test to save 0.5 seconds of boot time (current boot time is very slow)
- Update `ST7796` esp_lcd driver to v1.3.4
- Fixed keyboard bug: delete queue in destructor
- Fixed driver dependencies: Avoiding usage of global static shared_ptr. Properly constructor-inject everywhere, or use `tt::hal::findDevices()`
- I2C configuration is now immutable (you cannot disable it anymore from the I2C Settings app, as it would break crucial drivers)
- Renamed I2C and UART subsystems to "Internal"
## Drivers
- On/off interface added to `PowerDevice`
- Created `tt::hal::Configuration.createDevices`, which is intended to replace all custom create calls for display, keyboard, etc.
- Created `EncoderDevice` as a `Device` subtype
## Other Improvements
- Changed `findDevices(type, function)` into a templatized function.
- Improved SD card mounting
## Fixes
- Show Screenshot app again
- Fixed Statusbar: some updates were allowed to time out and fail silently: When the Statusbar service would do a state update, the LVGL statusbar would never get updated due to this timeout.
- Fixed memory leaks in all `createSdCard()` functions (in most board implementations)
## New
- Read property files with `PropertiesFile`
- Support `boot.properties` so the user can specify the launcher app and an optional app to start after the launcher finishes. (see `BootProperties.cpp`)
- Create registry for CPU affinity and update code to make use of it
- `AppRegistration` and `ServiceRegistration` now also ensure that the `/data` directories always exist for all apps
- `Notes` is now the default app for opening text files. `TextViewer` is removed entirely. Created `tt::app:🎶:start(path)` function.
- WiFi settings moved from NVS to properties file.
- Specify `*.ap.properties` file on the SD card for automatic WiFi settings import on start-up.
- Added `file::getLock(path)` and `file::withLock(path, function)` to do safe file operations on SD cards
## Improvements
- Update TinyUSB to `1.7.6~1`
- Improved `Boot.cpp` code. General code quality fixes and some restructuring to improve readability.
- `tt::string` functionality improvements
- Rename `AppRegistry` to `AppRegistration`
- Rename `ServiceRegistry` to `ServiceRegistration`
- Cleanup in `Notes.cpp`
- `FileTest.cpp` fix for PC
- Created `TestFile` helper class for tests, which automatically deletes files after the test.
- Renamed `Partitions.h` to `MountPoints.h`
- Created `std::string getMountPoints()` function for easy re-use
- Other code quality improvements
- `SdCardDevice`'s `getState()` and `isMounted()` now have a timeout argument
## Fixes

- `DisplayDevice` improvements related `DisplayDriver`
- Replaced incorrect usage of `spiBusHandle` with `spiHostDevice` in all SPI display devices

- Updated `GraphicsDemo` project for the above changes
- TactilityC improvements:
- created `tt_hal_device_find()`
- created `tt_hal_display_*`
- created `tt_hal_touch_*`
- created `tt_lvgl_*`
- export `tt_app_*` calls
- Refactored `TouchDevice`: it can now start/stop LVGL separately, and it has an optional `TouchDriver` interface
- Refactored `DisplayDevice`: it can now start/stop LVGL separately, and it has an optional `DisplayDriver` interface
- Updated all boards and drivers for above changes
- LVGL can now be stopped and (re)started on the fly

- Replace C function pointers with C++ `std::function` in `Thread`, `Timer` and `DispatcherThread`
- Rename `SystemEvent`-related functions
