FullPageOS 0.10.0 Production version Released

FullPageOS 0.10.0 Production version Released

This release is targeted at Raspberry Pi 3 A+ and B+, but should work on any ARMv7 device supporting the Raspbian Stretch release from April 8th, 2019. Raspberry Pi 4 runs on ARMv8, so we will issue a separate release for it soon.

Many users have reported better performance in Chromium on Raspberry Pi with GPU acceleration disabled, so we have release 2 variants of this version of FullPageOS. Please use the one that works best with your web app.

We have also added support for Raspberry Pi 3 A+ out of the box.

Setup instructions have been published on our website in a mobile friendly format. We have added a QR code on the welcome screen that lets you read setup instructions from your phone while setting up the system.

Please let us know if there are any new features you would like to see in future releases.

Cheers,
Guy Sheffer, Tailor Vijay and OTOT, the FullPageOS team.
