This release is packed with goodies. The plugin system now supports 🔎Filters 🕳🥳 that allow displaying device-specific plugin entries under Device details and I added a template plugin type for setting up defaults of new devices (NEWDEV plugin). The UI got some love too. There are a ton of fixes and smaller improvements, and tweaks, so check the details below.
🙏 A big shout out to @ajtatum for sponsoring me 🙏 (these contributions mean a lot to me to keep me motivated).
This release is bigger than usual, which means that there might be bugs.
