feat: a simpler welcome window - #273
Merged

Conversation
The welcome window listed every change of the release, three apps, two donation buttons and a three-line footer, and grew taller than most screens. It now follows the new design: - Release highlights: the changelog items flagged "highlight": true in Config/products/macpacker.json, or the first six of a version that flags none. 1.0.0 flags the six of the design. "View all changes" opens every version this build shipped, read from the bundled changelog, so it is localized and works offline. - One other app, picked at random each time the window opens. "See all my apps" opens leanbytes.io. - "Stay in the loop" posts the address to the follow form of sarensw.gumroad.com. Gumroad mails a confirmation before it subscribes anyone and owns the unsubscribe link; MacPacker keeps nothing. - One "Support MacPacker" button for Buy Me a Coffee, not in the App Store build. PayPal stays in About. - The footer keeps website, privacy, legal notice, mail and copyright. Picking the versions and highlights and building the Gumroad request live in Core (Changelog, NewsletterSignup), with tests. The MacPacker icon is the app's own, drawn by the system at the size shown; the FileFillet and FlowMoose icons are rendered again from their Icon Composer sources at 128 px, because the 64 px images blurred at the new size.
Subscribing on the welcome window sends the address to Gumroad, so "It does not collect anything" no longer holds.

The newsletter strings joined the maker strings in the LeanBytes catalog, which the other apps share, and every LeanBytes string now has all 15 translations. Strings that name the app take it as %@ from Constants.appName instead of spelling out MacPacker. The latest POEditor download adds Traditional Chinese (zh-TW) and the remaining welcome strings in every language. It is saved in the sorted order the catalog has on main, so the diff shows only what changed.
Subscribing sent the address to Gumroad. Apple's App Privacy rules count a newsletter as marketing, which always has to be disclosed, so the App Store label would have to say MacPacker collects email addresses. That goes against what MacPacker stands for; people are to be reached through a website instead. Removes the signup, the Gumroad request with its tests and the seven strings, and puts the privacy policy back to "It does not collect anything".
The script only wrote the catalog back when it had to restore extractionState. POEditor's export now keeps that field, so nothing was written and the download stayed in POEditor's key order: thousands of moved lines for a handful of changed values. The script now always writes the catalog back sorted, as on main.
Korean "Support %@" and Portuguese "Welcome to %@" had lost the %, or the whole placeholder, and three Persian strings used the Arabic percent sign "٪", which is no placeholder. Persian "About %@" also said "approximately".

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Skip the write when the catalog content is unchanged.
The build pre-action runs this script before Xcode processes MacPacker/Localizable.xcstrings. The unconditional write changes the catalog modification time on every build, even when the serialized JSON is unchanged. This can invalidate incremental string-catalog processing.
Compare the serialized output with the existing file before replacing it.
Suggested fix
-with open(path, "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
- json.dump(data, f, indent=2, sort_keys=True, ensure_ascii=False)

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

The welcome window listed every change of the release, three apps, two donation buttons and a three-line footer, and grew taller than most screens. It now follows the new design: a few release highlights, one other app and a support banner.
What changed
"highlight": trueinConfig/products/macpacker.json; a version that flags none shows its first six. 1.0.0 flags the six from the design. AGENTS.md documents the field.The design also had a newsletter signup. It was built and then removed again: Apple counts a newsletter as marketing, which always has to be disclosed, so the App Store label would have had to say that MacPacker collects email addresses. MacPacker collects nothing, and the privacy policy stays as it is.
Tests
ChangelogTests: the versions up to the running one, newest first and compared by number (0.9.0 sorts below 0.22.0); dev and beta builds include the block in progress; the flagged items as highlights, the first six without flags; the bundledmacpacker.jsondecodes and its newest block flags highlights. Comparing versions as text makes them fail.swift test --package-path Modules: 576 tests pass. Both schemes build.Checked in the app: light and dark mode; English, German, Persian, Russian, Turkish, Korean and Traditional Chinese; the App Store build without the support banner; the changes popover; Continue closing the window.
