New Features

Improvements
- Made electron application more secure by disabling nodeIntegration in renderer process
- Complete rewrite of the whole application. Code separation should now be better and it should be easier to add new extensions
- Generally improved developer experience by using vite and making use of HMR
- Improved extraction of native icons
Changes from v8
- The settings from v8 are incompatible with v9, therefore the default settings will be applied when you upgrade to v9. You can downgrade to v8 at any time.
- As ueli uses FluentUI react components most of the visual customization options are dropped
- As ueli v9 was rewritten from the ground up it's very likely that certain features or bug fixes are missing in v9
- Formerly called "Plugins" are now called "Extensions"
- Because of the rewrite most of the translations could not be migrated. The only languages supported are:
- English (US)
- German (Switzerland)
Discontinued plugins from v8
These plugins are not lost, but just not ported to v9 as they need a partial rewrite. If there is a high demand, we can still port them later.
