Hello everyone!

Some news about the ongoing Gladys developments :slightly_smiling_face:

This weekend, I mainly worked on Gladys Plus (the offer I propose that allows Gladys users to access their instance remotely with end-to-end encryption), to improve a set of points:

  • Gladys Plus will now stay connected much longer on your device, because I understand it’s not fun to type the password + 2FA! In terms of security, if your device is compromised, you can invalidate the session on another device (as is done in most apps, you are rarely or never disconnected, but you can revoke your session remotely).
  • I worked on the responsive design of Gladys 4, the manifest.json, and on the app icons so that Gladys and Gladys Plus can be used as a real mobile or desktop app. Read my tutorial to use them on iOS/Android/MacOS/Linux/Windows as a real app. I will probably make a build with Cordova for a real app in the future, but it still requires work and I prefer to dedicate my resources to the missing features of Gladys 4 for now :slight_smile:
  • I fixed the redirect bug when Gladys Plus disconnects. See the commit.
  • @AlexTrovato was on fire this Sunday, as he opened 7 PRs to close 7 GitHub issues, thanks for your support Alex, thanks to you the v4 will be released faster!! :folded_hands:See all his PRs.
  • @VonOx worked on the Docker image build process for the release, he did an amazing job! Thanks! Setting up the right deployment processes is crucial and it’s not always easy to debug, in short, his help will give the project a great advantage! See his PR.
  • As part of the calls I have with the community, I spoke with @link39 this weekend to show me his Gladys 4 installation and discuss his ongoing developments: Milight and Yeelight soon!

Once again, things are moving fast :rocket:

Feel free to ask if you have any questions/comments :slight_smile:
