🌟 Zebar v3 launch

I'm excited to announce that Zebar v3 is now officially available! Zebar, our companion app for top bars and desktop widgets, has received a massive update with marketplace support, system tray integration, and other big improvements. Full details here

The new Zebar version is optionally available via the standard GlazeWM installer below.

🏠 New homepage

A new homepage is now live at glzr.io! It's pretty bare bones at the moment, but sometime soon it'll be the home for docs for GlazeWM and Zebar.

Big thanks to @Miitto, @themegaxandy, @wrapperup, @dillontkh, @HolbyFPV, @jsfr, @dinesh-58, @jackssrt, @Im-shamo, and @ChichiMsdk for contributing to this release 💛
