What's New

This release introduces a comprehensive web UI dashboard for job monitoring and management, secure authentication, and support for alternative template delimiters.

Major Features

• SQLite persistence for job execution history across restarts
• Responsive design optimized for mobile and desktop

Authentication & Security

• Secure login system with bcrypt password hashing

• Brute-force protection with rate limiting (10 attempts per IP per minute)
• Configurable session TTL (default 24 hours)
• HTTPOnly secure cookies for session management

Alternative Template Delimiters

• Support for [[ ]] delimiters instead of {{ }} to avoid conflicts with application templates

• Full compatibility with all existing date/time templates

Improvements

• Improved view toggle to maintain grid layout without page refresh
