After a long time of development, we have big news today: Version 0.3.0 is now available, and we changed our organization-name 🎉.
You can download this version for the following platforms:
New Name, New Project, New Me?
We, the team behind audapolis changed our name. We are now named "The Vegan Bug Bakery", no longer "the audapolis team". This has a simple reason: We grew and started another project – transcribee 🐝.
Transcribee is based on a lot of feedback we got from audapolis. Mainly the need of many people to have an easy-to-use transcription software. With a new funding from the prototype fund – who also funded the audapolis development – we now try to meet this need.
If you are interested in transcribee, you can take a look at the transcribee github repo. Transcribee is a collaborative web-platform that is intended to be hosted by organizations (e.g. universities) and solely focuses on transcription and transcript correction. With this, it can provide much better out of the box transcripts and experience editing the transcripts at the cost of not having the editing features of audapolis.
If you want to learn more about our work, you can follow our twitter, mastodon or github profiles.
What's Changed
But just because we have a new project, doesn't mean we don't work on audapolis anymore. Instead, we added some bigger (and a whole lot of smaller) changes to this new version.
In total, we added 118 commits with 12,343 additions and 6,794 deletions.
Special thanks to @lucaswerkmeister and @phlmn, who did their first contributions to audapolis in this release.
New Fileformat
The biggest change is probably invisible to most of you: We changed the internal file format that audapolis uses to store the data. We hope that this new format allows us to improve the performance of audapolis in many places and reduce some bugs. For the first time, we also wrote a longer document describing this file format, so other apps can use it too.
Document Filter
Have you ever wanted to create a supercut of every time someone says "apple" in a meeting?
Or you need all paragraphs that contain a certain phrase? Now you can do this is no time with the new "Document Filter" action. This action can be found in the menu under "Edit" or by pressing ShiftCtrlF / Shift⌘F.
This feature was inspired by the incredible videogrep project.
Export Debug Logs
While we try to keep audapolis as bug-free as possible, sometimes we miss something. This is why we introduce better logging. Users can now export debug logs from the "Help" menu, which help us better understand some bugs.
UX Improvements
We fixed a number of small annoyances we and other users found when using audapolis:
Transcript Correction
You can now edit the text of the transcript more easily by pressing i / o to change the word left/right of the cursor. If you select parts of the text and press either key, you can edit a longer chunk of text at once.
Documentation
We didn't just work on the code, but also on the surrounding documentation.
We added contribution guidelines and a code of conduct. The contribution guidelines now explain how you can contribute to audapolis, be it through reporting bugs or unclear documentation, suggesting new features or writing code. The code of conduct explains what kind of community we want to create with audapolis and which behavior we find acceptable – and which not.
We also added information on how you can support us financially, so we can spend more time on audapolis.
🚧 Punctuation Reconstruction
We added an optional setting to enable punctuation reconstruction, i.e. trying to guess where periods, commas etc. were in the spoken text. This feature is still very experimental. If you find any bugs, please report them to us.
Auto Updates
Starting with v0.2.2-pre2, audapolis checks if a new version was released and then asks you if this new version should be installed.
Miscellaneous
We fixed some bugs
We updated our dependencies
We updated some internal tools
We fought with our CI
We changed the name of the github orga:
And last but not least, we released this new version
