The dispatch board is back, and with a brand new release to go with it! v0.5 brings a few new things that users of the beta branch are already familiar with. This is kind of a small update, but Clapton wanted to push this as-is so we can get DWB working for everyone again.

✨ New Features

• APIv2 support.
• Quotes now have timestamps and authors.
• A new dark theme
• Customizable themes (more on this is coming in a later patch, but you can play around with the css variables located in the body tag if you’re familair with how that works)
• A brand new user menu
• Better(ish) mobile scaling (a temporary fix)
• Performance fixes
• Squashed bugs (I hope, those cockroaches are hard to kill)

🐞 Bugs

• This bug has a description.

✨ What’s up next?

I’m currently beginning work on the next major revision, which will finally bring some much needed changes to the way the board functions. Stay tuned!

• User settings menu
  • Choose which DWB branch to use from by default
  • Event notifications (new case, updated case, gone cr, etc…)
  • Theme options!
• Rebuilt rescue display layout
• Rat status tracking buttons (not unlike Gridwolf’s tracker)
• User-side dispatch note fields
• … and more!
