* **New Features**
* Centralized module management with global symbol resolution
* Level-aware logging with colored prefixes and millisecond timestamps
* **Breaking Changes**
* ModuleParent hierarchy and getModuleParent() removed
* Logging API and adapter model replaced; LogLevel-driven log_generic signature changed
* **Improvements**
* Unified, simplified module registration across build targets
* Tests updated to reflect new module lifecycle and global symbol resolution
* **New Features**
* Added a standalone LVGL module and enabled LVGL support in the simulator for richer local UI testing.
* **Refactor**
* HAL and LVGL split into distinct modules; startup and device attach/detach flows reorganized for clearer lifecycle management.
* Public APIs tightened with clearer nullability/documentation.
* **Bug Fixes**
* More consistent LVGL start/stop and device attach/detach behavior for improved stability.
* **New Features**
* Time and delay utilities added (ticks, ms, µs); SD card now uses an expansion-header CS pin; HTTP downloads warn when run on the GUI task and yield to avoid blocking.
* **Bug Fixes / Reliability**
* Many hard-crash paths converted to guarded checks to reduce abrupt termination and improve stability.
* **Tests**
* Unit tests added to validate time and delay accuracy.
* **Chores**
* License header and build/macro updates.
**New features**
- Created a devicetree DTS and YAML parser in Python
- Created new modules:
- TactilityKernel (LGPL v3.0 license)
- Platforms/PlatformEsp32 (LGPL v3.0 license)
- Platforms/PlatformPosix (LGPL v3.0 license)
- Tests/TactilityKernelTests
Most boards have a placeholder DTS file, while T-Lora Pager has a few devices attached.
**Licenses**
Clarified licenses and copyrights better.
- Add explanation about the intent behind them.
- Added explanation about licenses for past and future subprojects
- Added more details explanations with regards to the logo usage
- Copied licenses to subprojects to make it more explicit
## 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
- ELF loading now has a lock so to avoid a bug when 2 ELF apps are loaded in parallel
- Made an external app from internal Calculator app
- Update tactility.py to v1.2.0 (fix bug with selfupdate)
- Added warning to Development service UI
- Add context to `SECURITY.md`
- Split `ObjectFileReader` and `ObjectFileWriter` into separate cpp files
- Fix related to GPS config read errors
- Implemented `constexpr long int getMicros()` in `Kernel.h`
- Changed `secondsToTicks()`, `minutesToTicks()` and `bool isIsr()` to `constexpr`
- Added more relevant build info
- Improved logging code by splitting functionality up into different files
- Set C++23 as new standard (it was already the implied standard due to some code, but now it's explicit)
- Create `Include/` folder for all main projects
- Fix some issues here and there (found while moving things)
- All includes are now in `Tactility/` subfolder and must be included with that prefix. This fixes issues with clashing POSIX headers (e.g. `<semaphore.h>` versus Tactility's `Semaphore.h`)
* Remove version from artifact name
* Target C++ 20 and higher
* Use cpp string
* Better crash implementation
* String utils in cpp style
* Replace parameter methods with start() method
* MutexType to Mutex::Type
* Kernel c to cpp style
* Cleanup event flag
* More cpp conversions
* Test fixes
* Updated ideas docs
