- Create utils/image_codec.py with cv2-based image helpers
- Replace PIL usage across all routes, filters, and engines with cv2
- Move Pillow from core deps to [tray] optional in pyproject.toml
- Extract shared build logic into build-common.sh (detect_version, cleanup, etc.)
- Strip unused NumPy/PIL/zeroconf/debug files in build scripts
- Move startup banner into main.py so it shows the actual configured
port instead of a hardcoded 8080 in the launcher scripts
- Wrap tkinter import in try/except so embedded Python (which lacks
tkinter) logs a warning instead of crashing the overlay thread
Windows: install-autostart.bat (Startup folder shortcut),
uninstall-autostart.bat. Linux: install-service.sh (systemd unit),
uninstall-service.sh.
Both launchers now use python -m wled_controller.main so port is
read from config/env instead of being hardcoded to 8080.
Restructure release.yml into 4 jobs:
- create-release: shared Gitea release with download table
- build-windows: existing portable ZIP (unchanged)
- build-linux: new tarball with venv + run.sh launcher
- build-docker: push image to Gitea Container Registry
Add build-dist.sh as Linux equivalent of build-dist.ps1.
Docker tags: version + latest (stable only, no latest for alpha/beta/rc).
