  WarpEngine Store 1.3.0 Stable

  mr.zero released this 2026-08-18 13:30:23 +00:00 | 14 commits to master since this release

  WarpEngine Store 1.3.0

  TypeScript, in layers. The client was one main.js, one preload.js, three files
  in lib/ and one renderer script. It is now a typed application with the dependency
  rule pointing inward: domain (models, ports, errors) knows nothing about Electron,
  Node or Python; application orchestrates it through those ports; infrastructure
  holds the adapters — the Python CLI, HTTP, the filesystem, Electron itself — and the
  hosts (main, preload, renderer) sit on top. STRUCTURE.md is
  the map: every layer, every pattern in use, and the naming rules, written to be read
  before adding anything.

  Nothing about the window changed. Same side menu, same categories, same switcher, same
  two languages — this release is the inside of the app.

  Two properties came out of the move, and both are worth having:

  • The catalog can be driven with no window and no Electron at all. make smoke
    assembles the same services against the same ports in a plain Node process. It was a
    script that reimplemented the bridge before; now it is a second composition root.
  • The window never receives a filesystem path. A title crosses the bridge without
    one, and launching is asked for by name — the main process resolves what that means
    from the store's own state. Nothing in the renderer can be talked into opening a path.

  A strict linter, and types everywhere. strict plus
  noUncheckedIndexedAccess, exactOptionalPropertyTypes, noImplicitOverride,
  noPropertyAccessFromIndexSignature and friends; typescript-eslint's
  strictTypeChecked and stylisticTypeChecked sets; explicit return types, parameter
  types and property types required even where inference would manage; exhaustive
  switches; no any, no !, no casts on foreign data — engine output and the registry
  go through readers that turn unknown into typed values. The naming patterns are
  enforced by naming-convention rather than trusted.

  Two things the types now catch that a person used to: a translation with a missing key
  does not compile, and a channel the preload does not implement does not compile.

  New make targets: make build, make typecheck, make lint, make lint-fix and
  make check — the gate, which runs the type-check, the linter and both test suites in
  that order, cheapest failure first. Every script that runs the app builds first, so a
  stale bundle cannot be tested.

  Opening it on macOS

  Ad-hoc signed, not notarised, so macOS asks first:

  xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/WarpEngine Store.app"
  

  Open Anyway under System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security works as well.

  What is attached

  macOS arm64 only, the machine this was built and verified on. Windows and Linux
  packages need a build on those platforms (make dist-win / make dist-linux).

  Verified

  make check is clean: no type errors, no lint findings, the smoke test green against
  the real store and against a sandbox one, and the window test green with one store and
  with two — where it clicks the store that is not open and checks that the bar, the grid
  and the categories follow. The window was photographed before and after the refactor
  and the two are the same picture. The packaged app was run from the built bundle, not
  from a dev launch.
