We've released Conveyor 12.1, which has 9 bugfixes and some small documentation improvements. The bugfixes are minor and mostly concerned with better error messages and improving handling of edge cases. Thanks for all the feedback - it lets us rapidly improve the product!

The December release of Conveyor is out! This is a relatively simple release: it makes code signing (again!), adds support for Google Cloud and Azure HSMs, lets you upload to alternative S3 providers and fixes some bugs. Enjoy! hydraulic.dev/blog/24-decemb…

If you're shipping a JVM app, ProGuard can be a great way to not only reduce your download size but also speed up your app. Mike Dawson gives the numbers for the JVM app he's shipping with Conveyor: medium.com/@mike_21858/us…

Conveyor 13.1 is out with bug fixes and performance improvements. We're down to real edge cases now: "app.exe" files that are actually batch scripts? Check. Entry points that aren't Mac binaries? Check. Spurious internal server errors from Apple? Check!

Upgrade today and benefit from improved robustness and compatibility. Also remember to update your compatibility level to benefit from newer features, which sometimes won't be turned on unless you explicitly opt-in. conveyor.hydraulic.dev/13.1/release-n…

Conveyor 14 also makes it easier for JVM users to customize the certificate root store. With this feature you don't need to use ordinary CA certificates for your backends at all, and can instead self issue. hydraulic.dev/blog/25-enterp…

Conveyor 14.1 is out. This is a bugfix release. If you use URL handlers and support Linux it's worth an upgrade, otherwise if things re working well for you on 14.0 you can skip this one. conveyor.hydraulic.dev/14.1/release-n…

Conveyor's May update is here (14.2) and it's a maintenance release with a variety of bug fixes and improvements, but no new features. These changes were nearly all driven by user feedback, so upgrade and enjoy! conveyor.hydraulic.dev/14.2/release-n…

Conveyor 15 is out! This feature release adds the long awaited control API, which lets your app check for and trigger updates. The API is easy to use from Electron, JVM and native apps, and the apps scaffolded by "conveyor generate" now show how to use it conveyor.hydraulic.dev/15.0/release-n…

Conveyor 15.1 is out! There are the usual compatibility improvements, but mostly this release focuses on cost optimization when using CA-specific cloud signing solutions that charge per signature. conveyor.hydraulic.dev/15.1/release-n…

We've done a new release of the Conveyor Gradle plugin, version 1.12, which fixes compatibility with Gradle 8.10. The new Gradle unfortunately did break backwards compatibility without documenting this in the release notes, but it was not a hard fix.

Conveyor 16 is out! This is mostly bug fixes but has a few small new features too, in particular, support for creating GitHub releases as drafts. And thanks to Bonny Rivers for her contribution of TypeScript types for the Electron control API! conveyor.hydraulic.dev/16.0/release-n…

Conveyor 20 is out! This release adds a new aggressive-if-possible update mode, which lets users stay on old releses if their OS is too old for new app versions. It also improves the diagnostics experience for users with a corrupted Windows install, and has other bugfixes.
