In store for you this month we have some massive changes to our CI process, some good news for Windows Chocolatey users, a new option for Pulsar's title bar, some improvements to our ppm unpublish command and work on a brand new utility to help clean up elements of a Pulsar installation.

Our Chocolately packages are up to date again!

If you use the Chocolately package manager for Windows you may have noticed the official packages have been a few versions behind.

This has now been solved and the latest versions are available once again.

You can read more about what we had to do and why on the latest Pulsar Blog post.

This month we have an update to our less packages, a new tree-sitter grammar, a new way of downloading Pulsar and a conversation on the future of our subreddit.

#pulsar #pulsaredit #opensource #foss #update #blog

Our newest regular release (v1.106.0) of Pulsar is available now!

We have a particularly exciting release for you because this is our first regular that adds a new feature that we have been hard at work on but more on that later. Of course we still have our usual mix of updates and upgrades such as a whole host of improvements to our Clojure language support and a number of annoying bugs that have been firmly splatted.

We've put out a survey. No login required but we'd like to know how everyone is finding and keeping up to date with us with looking for news, updates and information about us. If this goes well we'll do other surveys for other aspects of Pulsar.

Time for my quarterly check to see if Pulsar works on my NixOS machine... nope. Still stuck with Atom.

( #PulsarEdit #Atom )

Our newest release has dropped! With this we officially on rolling releases and dropped beta tags. Also more icon fixes and Mac releases are now signed thanks to @autumnblazey!

Am I the only one who uses shell aliases so that I can launch new applications by the same names I've been using for years? Like for example, I have `atom` aliased to launch #PulsarEdit, and `ls` aliased to run `exa`, because I will literally never learn to type `pulsar` to edit a file or `exa` to list files.

Check out the first in what we hope will be our regular updates on the Pulsar Blog!
This will hopefully give you some insight as to what we have been up to in the background and what you can expect expect to see in the near future.
In this update we have info on tree-sitter upgrades, a new donation platform, backend improvements and an upcoming Matrix space.

@bonoky @lgeurts Hopefully soon this won't be required but that's next beta(I think, don't quote me on this). It's something weird about trying to get things updated and patched, from what I recall, and I know we've been fighting the build tools a bit as well. Hopefully soon we're in package managers in some way sooner or later, esp flatpak/snap. Though we could use all the help getting to that point we can get.

#MassiveWiki: While we love using #Obsidian as one of the frontends for Massive Wikis, we are starting to evaluate #PulsarEdit (the community successor to Atom) for working with branches and pull requests.

To an Obsidian user who is willing and able to be a little adaptive, Pulsar's UI is reasonably similar, and the Git experience is more streamlined and more comprehensive.

(Obsidian Git can switch branches and commit to branches, but afaik it can't make branches or create pull requests.)

1/2

So I have now switched from #Atom to #PulsarEdit.

I built a small markdown news section generator with Deno & GitHub actions for Pulsar-Edit, hope they like it~

For anyone publishing packages here's the guide to do so:
https://pulsar-edit.dev/docs/launch-manual/sections/core-hacking/#publishing​

It's recommended to go to gh and set up a PAT. Then add it on:
https://web.pulsar-edit.dev​
(the front-end for our backend at the moment) then follow the steps on the link above.

For anyone that had a #atom package or has migrated development to #vscode we hope we can get you to come back and help us document your packages and their status!

All we've done to archive their info from the old atom package databases can be found at:
https://web.pulsar-edit.dev

If you're no longer maintaining it we can possibly arrange transferring it to a new maintainer!

Thanks in advance!
