From v0.90-5-beta

🌍 Internationalization

Preliminary support for internationalization has been added, thanks to the efforts of @Nriver. More specifically, the following languages now have a partial translation:

• Spanish by @hasecilu
• Chinese by @Nriver
• Romanian.

Note that only the client has been translated so far and there are still a lot of tasks to handle before the application is fully translated.

💡 New note type: Mind map

Mind maps are usually a fast method to write down ideas and do brainstorming with a team. TriliumNext introduces this new note type with the help of Mind Elixir, an open-source library.

Note that the integration is still in its infancy, so there might be bugs and a lack of feature until it is stabilized. The library itself supports quite a few features that are not implemented yet in Trilium: math expressions using KaTeX, images, links. Those might be implemented along the way, provided they are needed by users.

Note: For the note type to fully work (such as shared notes), it is ideal to update the server instance as well, if you are using one.

⚙️ Builds

The internal build tooling has been updated, resulting in the following changes:

• For macOS users there is now a .dmg installation method as well. @JYC333
  • There is also an ARM-native version for macOS that can be used, however it will require additional steps to get it running due to the lack of notarization (to bypass the “TriliumNext Notes.app” is damaged error).
• For both Windows and Linux we now have amd64 builds as well.
  • Please note these versions are not being actively tested due to lack of equipment, so feel free to raise any issues you might be encountering.

On the Docker side, brought back Alpine-based Docker containers for amd64 by @perfectrain.

🐞 Bugfixes

• v0.90.4 docker does not read USER_UID and USER_GID from environment

• Invalid CSRF token on Android phone

• Excess spacing in lists

• scrollbar-color makes the scrollbar appear natively styled

• Invisible scrollbar on Firefox

• Issue with note title text box border

• Focus not set to input field when clicking Include Note from Block Editor

• Fix a bug of find widget by @SiriusXT

• 'A JavaScript error occurred in the main process' when launching Trilium (improved error handling).

• Note Tooltip isn't removed when clicking on internal trilium link in read-only mode

• Calendar dropdown won't close if click/right-click other button that open notes from launcher bar

✨ Improvements

• Improved the calendar button in the launch bar, adding support for easier month and year selection.
• Make first day of week configurable (supports Sunday and Monday)
  • Can be adjusted in Options → Appearance → Localization → First day of the week.
  • The option is synced with the server and the client updates immediately.
• Removed hard-coded libraries such as FancyTree and Bootstrap. This will later allow us to upgrade to the latest versions. @JYC333
• Hide Electron-specific settings in the web version
• Add a toggle to promote the current note to a template
• Disable share toggle when in options
• Open New window from taskbar by @SiriusXT
• Pressing F2 to edit the branch prefix will now work only in the note tree to avoid issues with other interactive elements such as the mind map, but also since the option itself is not the most used ones to require a global shortcut.

v0.90.7-beta

⚠️ Important notes

• 0.90.5-beta & 0.90.6-beta have an incompatibility with older sync servers if using mind maps, causing them to get turned to a file. If you are impacted by this, see mindmap note suddenly show with file note.
• Sync version has been increased from 32 to 33 to prevent issues with mindmap notes. This means that the server also needs to be updated to this version, otherwise sync will be refused.
• If you are using the server build with a custom entrypoint (instead of running ./trilium.sh), make sure to change ./node/bin/node src/www to ./node/bin/node src/main. See #483 for more information.

Nightly

Merge pull request #327 from TriliumNext/JYC333-patch-1

Create nightly release action

v0.90.6-beta

This is a Docker-only re-release of v0.90.5-beta that adds back the amd64 container image which was previously not available due to a race condition on our build mechanism. For now, this means that the Alpine container mentioned in the previous release is no longer available, as we have fallen back to Debian Slim.

v0.90.5-beta

What's Changed

This release brings a few quality-of-life improvements, as well as bugfixes. The main highlight, however, is the increased support for localization as well as a new note type.

Full Changelog: v0.90.4...v0.90.5-beta

v0.90.4 release

This release focuses mostly on improving the experience with the Docker containers.

Docker ARM builds

• ARM builds for Docker were reintroduced and are available on both Docker Hub and GHCR starting with this release, by @perfectra1n .
  • Note that only ARMv7 and ARM64/v8 architectures are supported for now.
  • ARMv6 support was dropped due to incompatibility issues with Node 20.

🐞 Bugfixes

• Docker container marked as not healthy
• Find/Replace dialog doesn't match theme
• Tray icon is missing on windows
• Error when Duplicating subtree of note that contains broken internal trilium link
• Update available points to Trilium download instead of TriliumNext

Additional changes

• Update docker-compose.yml by @slashtechno
• Updated links throughout the application to point to the rendered TriliumNext Wiki

v0.90.3

This is the first public release of TriliumNext considered stable.

Important

Some issues with Docker were identified: #296, #302. A new version with those fixes should be available soon.

❔ Why TriliumNext?

TriliumNext has started as a fork of Trilium Notes at the beginning of 2024. The reason for the work is that the upstream project has entered maintenance phase and we would like to extend the application.

The work so far has focused more on the technical aspects because most of the work has been done by @zadam and handing over a project of this size is non-trivial. Some more technical work will be done in the upcoming versions after which the project can focus on improving the user experience as much as possible.

As a short overview of what's planned next from a user-facing point of view:

• Support for multiple languages.
• Improving the existing theme and decluttering the UI.
• Mobile improvements.
• Exploring additional editors such as a MarkDown-based editor.

⬆️ Porting from Trilium Notes?

There is no change in the database structure.

TriliumNext Notes can be run instead of the original Trilium Notes and it should work out of the box, since it will reuse the same database.

It should also be possible to downgrade back to Trilium Notes if required, without any changes or loss of data.

Similarly goes for the server, it should work out of the box. It is possible to mix and match between Trilium Notes and TriliumNext Notes.

🐞 How stable is the version

Generally you should not encounter any breaking bugs as the prior versions have been tested and daily-driven for a few weeks now.

Should you encounter any issue, feel free to report them on our GitHub issues.

✨ Key highlights

• Fixed (from v0.90.2-beta)
  • Fixed Error importing zip file
  • Fixed Alt+Left and Alt+Right navigation would not work under Electron.
  • Added a fresh new icon to represent our ongoing effort to improve Trilium.
• v0.90.2-beta
  • Fixed some issues with the sync.
  • Ported the server from Common.js to ES modules.
  • Updated the CKEditor from 41.0.0 to 41.4.2.
  • Updated Electron from 25.9.8 (marked as end-of-life) to 31.2.1.
  • Started adding support for internationalization (#248). The application will soon be able to be translated into multiple languages.
  • Improved error management for scripting
• v0.90.1-beta
  • Introduced a Windows installer instead of the .zip installation. 
  • Bug fixes related to the TypeScript port of the server.
• v0.90.0-beta
  • On a technical side, the server was rewritten in TypeScript. This should improve the stability of both current and future developments thanks to the language's type safety. It will also make the development slightly easier.

v0.90.2-beta release

🐞 Bugfixes

• (Bug report) Initial sync doesn't finish

✨ Technical Improvements

Important changes:

• The biggest change is that the server has been ported from Common.js to ES Modules. Note that a change of this proportion is bound to cause some quirks throughout the application, bug reports are welcome.
• Updated Electron from 25.9.8 to 31.2.1 (#231)

Additionally:

• Updated CKEditor from 41.0.0 to 41.4.2.
• Started adding support for internationalization (#248). The application will soon be able to be translated into multiple languages.
• Improved error management for scripting:
  • If a critical unexpected error occurs from a widget, a toast is shown explaining the situation and advising to enter safe mode, as opposed to a blank page.
  • If a basic widget fails to render, a toast is shown instead of crashing the application.
• Toast messages now support newlines (by adding a \n to the message) for slightly better formatting.
