v5.2.0

Release Notes

v5.2.0

New Features

• Tray Quick-Actions: The system tray menu now includes a Turbo Boost toggle (shows current ON/OFF state) and a Performance Mode submenu with all four modes (Power Save, Balance, Performance, Ultra). The tray stays in sync with the app via IPC.
• Dark Mode: Added a light/dark theme toggle button in the nav bar on both pages. The selected theme is persisted to ~/.config/boostchanger/settings.json (via Electron's userData path) and applied immediately on next launch with no flash.
• CPU Temperature: Live CPU temperature display added to the dashboard and to the CPU Settings nav bar, polled every 2 seconds using systeminformation.cpuTemperature(). Shows "N/A" when sensor data is unavailable.
• Minimize to Tray: Minimizing the window now hides it completely from the taskbar. Use "Show App" in the tray icon menu to restore it.

Bug Fixes

• localStorage cache bug fixed: main.js was calling session.clearStorageData() on every launch, silently defeating the caching in dashboard.js. Static system info (OS, kernel, CPU name, RAM, disk) now loads from cache on subsequent page visits within the same session.
