It is a busy time of the year and this release took much longer to reach than expected. A huge amount of work went into optimising the build process and the final application build files and packaging. Most of the code is now being compressed and unused code is aggressively being removed. This results in smaller package and installer sizes and also an application which starts up faster.
| Package | 0.66 | 0.67 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Linux zip | 69.1MB | → | 54.6MB |
| Linux .deb | 45.8MB | → | 37.7MB |
| macOS .dmg | 78.1MB | → | 35.3MB |
| Windows installer | 47.3MB | → | 33.6MB |

- Optimised packaging of the whole application. Now takes less space on disk and starts up faster.
