🚀 Zapstore for Android 1.0.0 now available! This is a massive release consolidating almost a year of hard work: - Major UX refresh across all screens - Revamped app updates, with background downloading and checks, progress tracking - App Stacks and bookmarks editable from the app - Relay management for app catalogs - Security and performance improvements, and much more We also built and migrated to an all-new relay and Blossom server backed by a CDN with assets distributed in 3 regions for faster and more reliable downloads. In addition to that, our new publishing tool zsp v0.3.2 was also released today! And last but definitely not least... an amazing new webapp where we hint at what the future looks like (can't wait for Studio!). Incredibly bullish and grateful to @Pip the WoT guy @Niel Liesmons @elsat nostr:npub1y3yqdp44vg62ys8anqnjpx6cfprl848ev4lsmx5h4mznyz3xft9sen050hnostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f @HRF @npub1t5u3...j4c2 and all our testers and supporters, thank you!
