on GitHub

Happy end of Summer 🌆 ! This release features the introduction of a very fancy overview mode that helps in selecting different windows and workspaces, alongside a bunch of other minor features and bugfixes. Hope you enjoy! As always, check out the demo here: https://youtu.be/pT0FCLqUjUQ?si=EkL3yKtJQALk3gQZ

Features ⭐

• A fancy overview mode for window and workspace selection, reached by tapping or double tapping your primary action key
• Support for window urgency when a window on a non-focused workspace wants focus
• Plugins can now publish IPC events and handle IPC commands
• Add a GET_KEYBINDS command to the IPC to retrieve all of the active keybinds in miracle. This is useful for displaying the keybindings in a cheat sheet!
• Added a new background color configuration option to set the default gl clear color
• Enable a bunch of Mir protocol support, including:
  • ext_image_copy_capture_manager_v1
  • ext_output_image_capture_source_manager_v1
  • ext_foreign_toplevel_list_v1
  • ext_data_control_manager_v1
  • ext_input_trigger_action_manager_v1
  • ext_input_trigger_registration_manager_v1
• Migrated for Mir 2.29
