Notes

This is a pre-release version of Nudge created by GitHub Actions.
Nudge.app has been signed and notarized. The package has been signed, notarized and stapled.

By default Nudge looks for a com.github.macadmins.Nudge.json file located in /Library/Preferences. If you would like to use an alternative path, please read the README or the WIKI

About the LaunchAgent

This is a basic launch agent that opens Nudge twice an hour, every 30 minutes.
If you would like to reduce the amount of times Nudge launches per day, it is recommended to create your own LaunchAgent.

Changed

• Improved Github Actions build time - Nudge.app is no longer directly notarized during the build process as it was a redundant action
• Moved to generic macOS icon for logo use. Will no longer have to maintain this logo for each major macOS version
• Github runner is now macOS 13
• Xcode 15 is now required to build Nudge
• Built with Swift 5.9
• Moved back to apple-actions/import-codesign-certs for codesigning certs
• Moved to Xcode 15's new String Catalog feature for all localization
• Enhancements to localization efforts to allow SwiftUI previews to properly work
• Updated SwiftUI previews for every view to properly preview the UI changes without rendering the entire application
• Moved to new Swift/SwiftUI previews built on macros
• Updated builtInAcceptableApplicationBundleIDs for Big Sur, updates and Sonoma
• Renamed background blur calls to a more appropriate name
• Moved as many things as possible to EnvironmentObject instead of ObservedObject to allow objects to flow to other UI views without directly calling them as a variable.
• Renamed viewObserved to appState due to EnvironmentObject changes
• Removed ContentView.swift and move everything to Main.swift to better understand its logic
• Made a new Defaults swift file for common things used across every swift file
• More sorting of files and order to better read the codebase
• Ran all pngs through TinyPNG to further reduce the size of the application (approximately 15% app size reduction)
• Ran all screen shots through TinyPNG to reduce code repo (muliple megabytes of reduction)

Fixed

• Window size was not adhering to ContentView size due to changes in Ventura and Xcode14
• Fix bug where softwareupdate could download the wrong update
• Correctly centers window as soon as any screen properties change (Number of displays, order/position of displays, nudge window moved to another screen)
• Screen shot zoom functionality was too small
• Small changes to french localization
