Hi everyone, just a quick update to say that I do love coding, and I do hate manual testing :D many features of this extension remain without automated tests, which means before every release I'm spending ~30 minutes just manually validating, tweaking, and re-validating nearly everything the app does. Obviously this is no fun. I've been pressuring myself recently to release as often as possible, but it's just not sustainable for me, and I certainly don't want to burnout.
So, moving forward, I'll be releasing changes roughly twice a month, aiming for the first and third Sunday of each month. Just having this schedule in place gives me the mental space I need to start adding more advanced automated tests, hence the announcement!
As a result, you may see bugs closed for nearly two weeks before they're actually deployed. This is simply a more convenient way to manage the project, as it'd be a lot of work to add a "merged but not deployed" state and keep that tracked as time goes on.
As always, let me know if you have questions below :)
