🚀 CHANGELOG - Version 1.0.2 — Creation, Animation, Export & Desktop ## 🌟 New Features - **Timeline & Keyframes** Added a Timeline system with deterministic timing during export. Users can now create, move, delete, and save keyframes directly inside projects. - **Advanced Animations** Added animation support for numeric and vector properties. Added the ability to drive properties through time for smooth animations. - **Copy-Paste Overhaul** Copy-paste now supports node groups with links and timelines. - **New GIF Node** Added a GIF node for playing GIFs through Three.js. - **Automatic Saving** Added automatic local saving in IndexedDB for local projects. - **Unified Projects** Unified local and cloud projects, now separated by clear icons. - **Desktop Version (Electron)** Electron is now fully functional with a dedicated desktop entry view `ElectronHubView` for faster access to useful actions. - **Analytics & Security** Added Umami analytics and integrated Gitleaks into frontend and backend workflows to prevent API key leaks. --- ## 🛠️ Improvements & Fixes - **Reliable Video Export** Video export is now more reliable thanks to deterministic rendering, preventing skipped frames. - **Space Optimization** Project exports are now around 50% smaller by removing unnecessary data. - **Interaction & Sliders** Sliders now react around 10× faster. Improved ValueRuler to only show relevant multipliers. Input fields now allow negative values by default unless explicitly restricted. Disabled parameters are now hidden from the properties panel. - **Bug Fixes** Fixed double-click reset behavior for properties using animation modes. Fixed timeline keyframe preservation during copy-paste and duplicate node pasting. - **Variation Explorer** Improved Variation Explorer with support for Points, 3D, and SDF. - **Nodes & Systems** Fixed multiple nodes and systems, including GLB animations, PointsOnMesh, PointToTexture, AudioFile, Transform3D, VolumetricScanlines, and more. - **Electron & Platform** Fixed Electron asset handling and resolved the browser context menu appearing on right-click. - **Design & Cleanliness** Improved light/dark theme support, reduced unnecessary console logs, and refactored several internal components to improve code robustness.

🚀 CHANGELOG - Version 1.0.1 — Product Experience, Community & Marketplace ## 🌟 New Features - **User Profiles** Added a new Profile page with followers, following, max streak, XP levels, and avatar borders based on level. - **Marketplace** Added the Marketplace with improved UI/UX, project previews, likes, comments, author following, and license support. - **Leaderboards & Statistics** Added leaderboards (levels, views, publications, streaks, etc.) and user statistics (nodes placed, saved projects, and collected badges). - **Achievements & Badges** Added Xbox-style achievement popups when unlocking badges or new levels. - **Interface & Tools** Added the changelog directly inside the main interface, a functional *Report a bug* action, and a new *Tips* dialog. - **Electron Release** Added a Release page to download the Electron version or use Nodl directly in the browser. - **Templates** Added more than 30 ready-to-use templates with previews in the Marketplace, and random templates on the homepage for a more playful experience. - **Onboarding** Improved onboarding through the tutorial dialog. --- ## 🛠️ Improvements & Fixes - **Privacy & Profile** Users can now remove followers and make their profile private. - **General UI** Improved the overall UI across the homepage, sidebar, projects, and navigation. - **Marketplace** Improved Marketplace performance, previews, loading states, and navigation. Fixed issues when returning to the Marketplace and fixed ScrollToTop behavior. - **Translations** Added and fixed missing translations for the Profile and Marketplace. - **Publishing Validation** Marketplace publishing now shows clear, translated errors for missing title, short description, invalid pinned output, already published projects, and more. - **Collaboration** Local projects now suggest saving to the cloud before starting collaboration. Improved the overall collaboration workflow.

🚀 CHANGELOG - Version 0.1.0 (March) Hello everyone! Big month of development with the massive arrival of Nested Nodes, a full export system overhaul, and tons of new creative nodes. Here’s everything that changed: --- ## 🌟 Key Features - **Nested Nodes & Library** Export nested nodes via the context menu, with strict runtime validation and an import system supporting independent cloning (automatic ID/Port remapping). - **Bundle System** New curated library (`manifest.json`) with categorization based on dominant type (texture, geometry, points, etc.). - **Capture & Recording** Added OutputPanel recording (multi-format, transparency support) and canvas screenshot capture. - **Shader Engine** Separate vertex + fragment support, automatic detection of custom uniforms, and scheduling based on `uTime`. - **New Generator Nodes** JuliaBloom, KaleidoPulse, NeonGel, PlasmaWaves, Starfield, and Voronoi. - **Effects & Adjustments** Added Gradient Mapping, Pixelation, Sepia, Crystallization, Polar Inversion, and artistic tools (Paint, Pencil). - **UI/UX** Persistent properties panel (always visible), new color picker, gradient editor, and major textbox improvements (word navigation, advanced selection). --- ## 🛠️ Improvements & Infrastructure - **Performance** Switched to a shared `DRACOLoader` instance (singleton) for faster asset loading. - **Asset Loader** DRACO is now used by default with `GLTFLoader`. - **CI/CD** Production deployment is now fully automated via a new CI pipeline. - **Loading Screen** Added a real progress bar with detailed loading steps. --- ## 🐞 Bug Fixes - **Rendering** Fixed "black textures" during capture and recording (shared WebGL context issue). - **Quick Library** Fixed fuzzy search (e.g., "pointtrail" works with or without spaces) and display issues during fast typing. - **Nodes** Fixed PointTrail flickering and changed point nodes behavior to merge objects instead of replacing them. - **UI** Fixed the reset properties button not updating instantly. - **Stability** Improved system clock reliability to prevent frame skips. --- ## 📌 Note We are aware of current limitations regarding: - font loading (Text3D) - missing transform controls (Position/Rotation/Scale) on some 3D nodes - missing timeline animations (coming in may update!) - bugs in GLB with [pointsOnMesh] and animations (coming in may update!) 👉 These are planned for the next sprint!
