Version 0.0.17! Happy days!
This release increases the number of keyboard shortcuts (and updates swap color to x to more closely match other design software), and adds the pika://
URL scheme so you can write more complex scripts to pick, format, and copy colors. You can learn more about it here (and thanks @Hydro8). It also adds a setting to have Pika show at launch (thanks @franciscolourenco).

Minor update to the URL schemes in this update. You can now append the format you'd like to the pika://
URL scheme when picking and copying. You can learn more about it here (thanks @Hydro8).

Somehow we are nearly three months through 2024. That's not relevant to anything, just, whoa.

It's been a minute! This release adds Spanish language support (thanks x 1,000,000, @axiel7). It also fixes a reeeeeal annoying bug that a number of people have reported, where the Pika icon in the menu bar would appear in places it most definitely 100% should not appear. Thanks for looking after it, @bikrrr!

This release fixes a pretty glaring bug that's been there for a while—auto-updates don't auto-initialise until you manually update the first time. So that's not ideal. It also sorts out a small bug on a link to the Pika website, and adds a link to give feedback or report bugs via GitHub Issues.
Also, as a result of the changes to the way Pika handles updates, it needs to be downloaded ✨fresh✨, so you might find the download size is a little bigger than normal. My humble apologies, and we should be back to standard functioning updates from here on out. Phew.

Say hello to Pika-but-not-as-a-menubar-app. In Preferences you can now choose to run Pika as a regular app, meaning it behaves like a regular app—that includes shortcuts, a macOS menubar, standard window management, etc.
It also adds German translation (massive thanks to @david-swift for submitting it) and fixes issues with launching at login on macOS 13 Ventura.

Change is as good as a holiday, so this release introduces the most signicant change to the core functionality in a while—a new default layout for the WCAG compliance information, and the introduction of an appearance option to toggle back to the old view if that's preferable.
Need to export colors without any formatting? Well, now you can, with the newly simplified and consoliated preferences pane. Display and export colors for either CSS, design applications, or in an unformatted style. Works with text and JSON exports, too, so everyone wins!
The preferences panel has grown over time, and this update ensures it will continue to display (and be scrollable) should the display available be smaller than its height.
And finally, incredibly, Pika hasn't had undo / redo, which is silly, because it should. So this update adds it. Thanks to @sj26 for the suggestion.

This release adds a much requested feature with automatic copy on pick. This, coupled with the global shortcut, means you can now use the app without ever needing to see it at all. As always, thanks for the support, and if you have any issues or feedback, let me know on GitHub.

Thanks to you, the community, this is a big update that's packed with big features, including the first internationalisation effort—French language support. Très bien! If you'd like to get involved with Pika, or if you have any issues or feedback, head over to GitHub.
