v0.5.2-pre2 Alpha

What's new:

• Sketches no longer open in split-screen by default

Note: Google Play now requires all app updates to target API level 30, but doing so breaks the way that APDE currently uses AAPT on Android 10+. As a result, v0.5.2 will not be released on Google Play. Instead, v0.5.3 is in progress and will feature a new approach for running AAPT, among other things.

v0.5.2-pre1 Alpha

What's new:

• Real-time compilation
  • Your code automatically compiles in the background
  • Errors and warnings are underlined in your code
  • The problem overview screen (to the right of the console) shows all errors and warnings found in your code
  • Improved preprocessor
• Improved file selection
• Bug fixes and improvements

v0.5.1 Alpha

What's new:

• Preview mode runs sketches without installing them
  • You must install the APDE Sketch Previewer once, but then you can run sketches without installation indefinitely
  • Preview mode is available as another target, along with wallpapers, watch faces, and VR
• Support for the new Processing sound library
• Undo and redo are more accessible
• Ability to bypass screen overlay warning
• Lots of bug fixes

These changes are driven by GSoC '18.

v0.5.0 Alpha

What's new:

• Run sketches targeting wallpapers, watch faces, and VR!
  • Change targets by pressing the new button next to the run button
• Update to Android mode 4.0
• Lots of bug fixes

Notes:

To run watch faces, you must install APDE from the Play Store on your Wear OS watch, or sideload the wear companion APK attached below.

VR supports Google Cardboard and Daydream headsets.

These changes are driven by GSoC '18. Special thanks to Sara Di Bartolomeo, Andres Colubri, and the Processing Foundation!
