nextDash v1.26.0 gives questions, notices and tips one place to wait, a notifications bell in the navigation bar. It adds a large clock with a greeting by name, a Clock widget with a face, AdGuard Home and Pi-hole widgets, and a much lighter start.
Every theme in nextDash now has a backdrop drawn for it: 266 recipes in the theme's own colours, and a picker to browse them. The release also adds Tabs, Clock and Countdown widgets, a calculator in search and a list of what you changed from the defaults.
nextDash can now follow the RSS feeds of the sites you save, with news on the row, in the preview card and in a news window of its own.
The action bar, the five views and Config now look like the rest of your theme under every Signature material.
v1.22.0 redraws the dashboard: a surface for every material, backdrops chosen per theme and Aurora Glass as the default. The cheat sheet can be searched, and the bookmark form shows a live preview.
A new default theme and 24 colour-burst themes, more control over how a theme is drawn, a Server tab in Statistics, and a rebuilt nextdash.cc with its own docs.
Categories, widgets and collections can be moved anywhere on the dashboard — wide, with the keyboard, or to another page, with Undo. Plus one grouped categories table, Reset all in the look studio, and a roomier What's new.
A theme in nextDash was thirteen colours. Nothing in it said whether those colours belonged on lacquer, on paper or on a terminal, so 218 of the 242 built-in themes were drawn…
The largest release so far, and most of it answers one question: where does a thing live. The header is one row, the buttons that floated over the grid have somewhere to stand, config opens on tiles, the bookmark list is a workbench, and a fresh install starts on a new look - with a one-minute tour for everyone who already knew where things were.
