Major Changes

1. Database Migration: Complete transition from JSON files to SQLite database using Drizzle ORM for improved performance and data integrity

4. Improved Bookmarks & Notes: Multiple bookmarks per manga-chapter, notes in epub, color options, context menu integration, and better organization
5. Type Safety: Comprehensive improvements to TypeScript usage throughout the application

Breaking Changes

1. Package Manager: Migrated from Yarn to PNPM

Future Plans

• Implement gallery view for home page.
• Change in UI components to use custom Radix UI for better accessibility and maintainability.
• Replace IPC redux slices with Tanstack Query based hooks??.
• Move from webpack to Vite??.
• Redo of CSS.
• Windows 7 deprecation. Current version of electron is causing many issues and I have planned to migrate to a newer version of electron which is not supported by Windows 7. It will be done after gallery view is implemented.
