Wails v3 Alpha Release - v3.0.0-alpha.68

Added

  • Add Web API examples in v3/examples/web-apis/ demonstrating 41 browser APIs including Storage (localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, Cache API), Network (Fetch, WebSocket, XMLHttpRequest, EventSource, Beacon), Media (Canvas, WebGL, Web Audio, MediaDevices, MediaRecorder, Speech Synthesis), Device (Geolocation, Clipboard, Fullscreen, Device Orientation, Vibration, Gamepad), Performance (Performance API, Mutation Observer, Intersection/Resize Observer), UI (Web Components, Pointer Events, Selection, Dialog, Drag and Drop), and more
  • Add WebView API compatibility checker example (v3/examples/webview-api-check/) that tests 200+ browser APIs across platforms
  • Add internal/libpath package for finding native library paths on Linux with parallel search, caching, and support for Flatpak/Snap/Nix
  • WIP: Add experimental WebKitGTK 6.0 / GTK4 support for Linux, available via -tags gtk4 (GTK3/WebKit2GTK 4.1 remains the default)
    • Note: On tiling window managers (e.g., Hyprland, Sway), Minimize/Maximize operations may not work as expected since the WM controls window geometry

Changed

  • BREAKING: Map keys in generated JS/TS bindings are now marked optional to accurately reflect Go map semantics. Map value access in Typescript now returns T | undefined instead of T, requiring null checks or assertions (#4943) by @fbbdev

Fixed

  • Fix file drag-and-drop on Windows not working at non-100% display scaling
  • Fix HTML5 internal drag-and-drop being broken when file drop was enabled on Windows
  • Fix file drop coordinates being in wrong pixel space on Windows (physical vs CSS pixels)
  • Fix file drag-and-drop on Linux not working reliably with hover effects
  • Fix HTML5 internal drag-and-drop being broken when file drop was enabled on Linux
  • Fix DPI scaling on Linux/GTK4 by implementing proper PhysicalBounds calculation and fractional scaling support via gdk_monitor_get_scale (GTK 4.14+)
  • Fix menu items duplicating when creating new windows on Linux/GTK4
  • Fix generation of mapped types with enum keys in JS/TS bindings (#4437) by @fbbdev
