25.09.1 - 2025-09-19

We are releasing our initial version with DAP support and reformed frontend architecture!

• DAP support and frontend architecture reform:
  Our backend and frontend have been reformed: now we use DAP instead of our older custom protocol, and
  our frontend components are more self contained and independent: needed for our work on a CodeTracer extension.
  Our DAP support is tested more under VsCode. We don't implement many optional aspects yet, but we do implement our custom
  functionalities and queries, defining our custom extensions to DAP: ct/-namespaced custom requests and events.

• A new backend multiplexer:
  We have also added an experimental new backend multiplexer, which gets us closer to the ability to replay multiple traces/backend instances
  in the same session and window.

We have also many other important improvements:

• Integrated a reformed version of the Ruby recorder

• Support for our newer trace binary trace format "version 1", based on CBOR and Zstd seekable compression

• Generate packages for some of the mainstream Linux distributions: #56 :
  please look at the README for links/more info!

• codetracer-wasm-recorder

• Hotfix the locals array to resize itself dynamically, resolving an array out of bounds crash for our Stylus wasm recorder

• various bugfixes:

  • some fixes for ct host: the browser mode of codetracer and for our cloud integration
  • a bugfix for ct record: store sensible source folders if the context is not a git repo
  • various build fixes

• Various UI improvements:

  • Fixed certain tooltips and popups produced by the editor widget being clipped in the first lines of code
  • Fixed incorrect text highlighting persistance after selecting a file in the global search bar

• macOS support:

  • Fixed dead link preventing users from recording ruby correctly
  • CodeTracer no longer requires homebrew(homebrew is still required for ruby)
  • The CodeTracer team now officially supports all versions of macOS, since macOS 12 Monterey

We're actively working on multiple exciting features, which are not fully released yet. Stay tuned!
