v0.9.10

Lots of changes and updates here! This release represents a few months of bug fixes, optimizations, and a few new features, and is hopefully as stable as ever. Here's a list of some of the changes:

• Add a random screensaver picker, as well as basic 'system
  screensaver' support -- ie, screensavers that are integral to the
  application and not installed as a separate package.
• If 'Run Now' chosen in menu, don't check power state
• Improve dock display -- show icon for more windows and hide only
  when all windows are closed
• Tweak layout of prefs window and the preview tool
• Update main process to listen for events from windows and pass data
  around. The main process has responsibilty for opening windows,
  saving new screensavers, etc.
• Reorganize code for app, switch to a single package.json
• Make a bunch of calls asychronous
• Use async/await in a few places
• Add some data caching to help performance
• When launching screensavers, don't take screengrab unless
  requested - this greatly speeds up launch time
• Switch to yarn, cleanup build process
  • I'd prefer to not have yarn as a dependency, but it does a better
    job of handling installations across multiple platforms -- ie,
    windows and OSX
• Add webpack and use it to build UI assets
  • I also might get rid of this at some point, and also React for
    that matter
• Update bootstrap version and assorted styling
• Update electron version
• Update React version and a bunch of assorted components
• Add mocha tests
• Add appveyor and Travis builds
• Update some stale packages, and remove some dead ones

v0.9.8

Minor bug fix.

v0.9.7

This release fixes a few bugs, and improves the display of screensavers just a bit by scrolling to your currently selected screensaver.

Bug Fixes!

This fixes a few more errors that can happen when editing screensavers, especially if they are in a directory that has a space in the pathname.

v0.9.5

This is a minor release which hopefully fixes a few bugs that occur when setting up a custom screensaver directory for the first time.

v0.9.4

Bug fixes!

v0.9.3

• Add a background color to boot process to look a little nicer
• Optimize screen grabber code, fix some CPU spikes
• Fix bug with (I think) newer versions of Electron where opening a
  BrowserWindow would trigger a reset of idle time on Windows.
• Hide mouse by using robotjs to move mouse off screen when showing screensaver. This seems like the only way to consistently not have a cursor showing when the screensaver is running
• Build ASAR packages -- should be smaller and maybe a little faster to load?
• Tweak state machine to rely on idle time checks and not much else
• Implement crash reporting, and some sentry.io error reporting
• Assorted library/code updates

Beta Before Dawn

This version of Before Dawn takes another big step closer to being a useful tool by adding a check for any running fullscreen applications, cleaning up the preferences display, and making the tray icon a little nicer. Here's the list of main updates:

• Check for fullscreen apps and don't activate the screensaver if one is running
• Sort screensavers alphabetically regardless of capitalization
• When adding a new screensaver, open the preview tool instead of the new folder
• Add right-click action to system tray
• If disabled, display a 'paused' icon in system tray
• Tweaked tray icon to be a little bolder
• Updated preferences display
• Fixed a case where the app would stop checking idle time, so it wouldn't load a screensaver

Yanked Awful Release

This release had some really bad bugs, so it is no longer something we will talk about.

v0.8.3

Hello! This version contains a bug fix to attempt to handle a problem where the screensaver won't activate after lots of idle time. Hopefully it's fixed!
