Published by marticliment 4 months ago

NOTE: WingetUI is now UniGetUI. Refer to https://github.com/marticliment/WingetUI/discussions/1900 for more details

Changelog

  • WingetUI is now UniGetUI. A new icon completes the rebranding
  • The Package Engine has undergone an entire redesign
    • Package managers that support so fetch packages via APIs (WinGet uses COM, NuGet-Based use REST nuget APIs, etc.). This leads to important speed improvements

    • Microsoft Store (winget: msstore) packages show their screenshots on the details page.
    • System WinGet is now used by default. Bundled WinGet is no longer used to fetch or to install packages.
      • WinGet Packages will not show ellipted anymore.

    • When a package manager is missing a dependency, the user will be prompted to install it.
  • Important improvements across the entire interface
    • The Software Pages have been rebuilt with ItemsView in favour of ListView. This decreases the amount of used RAM (70~100mb less aprox.)
    • The Package Details page has been rebuilt with RichTextBlock. Content does not overflow and is overall better presented. Bold, italic and greyed out fonts are used to make the interface more understandable. Text and URLs can be copied.
    • The Logs pages have been rebuilt, to provide more important information better. Different levels of logs have been introduced, easing the process of debugging and understanding issues.
    • The Settings page has been reorganized into more coherent categories
    • Improvements to ContentDialogs. Dialogs that do not prompt the user for a decision have a "Close" button at the top-right corner of the dialog.
  • The Package Engine has been internally decoupled from the Interface.
