I am happy to announce the release of Portfolio 1.0.0! This new release is the first step in the modernization process to GTK 4 and Libadwaita. It’s also a continuation to my efforts of bringing a minimalist file manager to the mobile Linux community, with a few important bug fixes.

As a starting point for the modernization process, this new version of Portfolio preserves the exact same design, in a GTK 4 flavor. A few reasons for that.

First, although I wish everyone was distributing applications using Flatpak, I want to reduce friction for the mobile Linux distributions, by sticking to currently available APIs. Second, I want to spend more time experimenting with newer Libadwaita widgets, specially with the ones from the upcoming 1.4 release, as these could require redesigning a few aspects of Portfolio’s graphical interface.
