1,705 additions and 2,991 deletions, thanks to our contributors.

Changelog

🐛 We continued to have trouble with the Show me templates on Windows and have properly squashed them this time around.
🐛 On macOS, you'd sometimes have to quit twice for Fiddle to actually quit. Once is good enough now.
🐛 Submitting the address bar with a keyboard only wouldn't properly load a fiddle. Now it does.
🐛 Speaking of loading a Fiddle, we'll now surface errors if that doesn't work for any reason.
:octocat: If you're authenticated with GitHub, we'll use that authentication to load fiddles, making API rate limits less likely.
🏷 If you want to only show downloaded Electron versions in the quick switcher, you can now do that – find a setting in the Electron preferences.
📦 Updated internal dependencies (including Electron and React)

Fiddle v0.5.0 introduces some new features, :electron: v4, and fixes a number of smaller issues.

🐛 Some users can't open Show me... templates. We've added logging to make debugging here easier. (@felixrieseberg)

Changelog

4,516 additions and 2,480 deletions, thanks to our contributors.

🐛 We sometimes failed to launch (and apparently never did on some Debian versions) due to an incorrect import order. That should now be fixed.
🐛 On macOS, we wanted to move to the Applications folder... like... all the time.
🐛 On first launch, we did not correct the latest version. Now we do.
🐛 If a previous download of Electron failed, we were unable to override the broken download. We now replace broken downloads.
🐛 The "Run" button would not show up if a version's state was still being determined. It now shows that.
📦 Internal: Updated React, mobx, and various other dependencies
:electron: Internal: Updated to Electron 3.0.14

• 🎨 Theme support! Not only does Fiddle now come with a light theme, you can also write your own.
• ⬇️ Fiddle now supports downloading up to 300 of Electron's recent releases.
• 🏷 You can now filter the list of Electron releases by their type; we've also added support for nightly Electron releases.
• 📆 If you're using an older version of Electron, the default template wouldn't work. It uses loadFile, which was introduced in Electron 2. Now, we'll now automatically switch to a template that uses loadURL whenever loadFile isn't supported.
• 📦 Electron and a number of Fiddle's dependencies have been updated to their latest versions – most notably, React, mobx, fs-extra, TypeScript, and Monaco (our beloved editor).
• 🐛 Many Linux customers had trouble with Fiddle not finding existing npm installations. That should be fixed, we're now trying to learn from your .bashrc / .zshrc files.
• 🐛 We were opening your fiddle's local folder every time you save. That's fixed.
• 🐛 Hovering over code at the top of an editor field could lead to a cut-off tooltip. Now we'll dutifully show you the whole tooltip.
• 🐛 The context menu's cut, copy, and paste buttons would sometimes hide themselves from you. They've promised to stop.
• 🐛 The "Do you really want to exit?" prompt would sometimes rudely ignore your response. It'll respect it now.

Thank you for stopping by! This is our first public release of Electron Fiddle. Read the announcement blog post for more information.
