* **New Features**
* Added App Hub browsing with All, Installed, and Updates filters, plus options to install, remove, or update apps.
* Added an installation activity indicator in the status bar.
* Added a mesh command-line app for checking status and managing mesh settings and channels.
* Radio region settings now persist across restarts and are applied to radio devices.
* Added audio codec support for the LilyGo T-LoRa Pager.
* Settings screens now use icons for selection actions.
* **Improvements**
* App Hub displays cached catalog results while a refresh is in progress.
* System menu close controls receive focus automatically when no pointer is available.
- Introduce "side" mode for system bar, versus classic statusbar on top with launcher bar below
- Automatic system bar mode detection with override by Kconfig/device.properties and secondary override by user via Appereance settings app
- Open a quick-settings menu from the status bar for available Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and power controls.
- Apps can display overlays with backdrop or Escape-key dismissal.
- Added focus-container support and improved keyboard navigation, including Fn+Enter on Cardputer devices.
- Power-off controls are available on supported device cards.
- Updated status-bar layouts, simulator display dimensions, and toolbar navigation styling.
- I²C scanning now supports selecting individual buses to rescan.
- SD-card mount status is no longer shown in the status bar.
DTS modules (device modules) often have a single source file with an empty `struct Module`.
The module's yaml file now allows a `dts-only` boolean to be set, so the source file becomes optional.
`devicetree.yaml` is renamed everywhere to `module.yaml`
app-module
- Apps now have support for:
- environment variables (inherit from parent app)
- current workdir
- window size (when running in terminal)
- Add type aliases like `AppId` and `PackageId`
- Remove data duplication between ledger and app instance records: create `AppManifestSet`
- `AppManifest` usage safety improved: pass by value where needed, or use `AppId` instead of a manifest.
Terminal and shell
- Moved shell commands into coreutils-module as proper apps.
- Refine stack size for terminal and shell because apps now run with their own task and stack (including in-memory apps)
Platform
- Fix for listing root dir on ESP32: wrap posix directory functions and wire in file systems.
- Moved all platform-specific file system init code to platform subprojects
Other
- Fix for screenshot capture (issue with paths)
- Fixes for coreutils app correctness
- Memory optimizations (use more PSRAM where possible) in various locations such as app-module, shell and terminal.
- `ls` and `help` commands now use terminal width and show columns of data by default
- Created fs helpers at `TactilityKernel/include/tactility/filesystem/fs.h` (partially ported from `ShellFs`)
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.
- Moved test projects to the parent project they belong to
- Improved test stability/corectness
- Improved recursive directory deletion by safely ignoring current- and parent-directory entries.
- Update docs
- 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
