The release date for v0.3.0-dev.1 is expected approximately within 2025.

This will contain a major rewrite for the most part.

I have to push it a bit further as there is a lot of behind the scenes in regards to planning and development. I don't have much free time to heavily work on Iris, therefore most of my time is planning and brainstorming at the moment.

Every few months I try to get a huge development session in, so that's where things are going right now.

The rewrite is an important part to get the app on track for future development. There will still be some pre-existing code, so the rewrite isn't a full 100% one. But you will notice some significant changes once this version is released.

I do want to note that this PR is very messy and contains lots of irrational decisions and indecisiveness, so try to ignore some of the earlier stuff. It is the last PR for any remaining experimentation outside of streamline changes. Need to solidify the basics down and really get things set in stone.

Will begin the UI in late July to early August. Editor, file directory, and other things follow after near the end of 2024 to starting 2025.
