v3.0-beta

🚀 Palmr. v3.0-beta is here!

We're thrilled to announce the v3.0.0-beta release of Palmr., a major leap forward that makes the project lighter, more flexible, and easier to self-host than ever before.

This update focuses on drastically simplifying the architecture, reducing dependencies, and unlocking powerful new features that take the experience to the next level — all while keeping Palmr. 100% open-source and self-hosted.

🔥 What’s New in v3.0.0-beta

• 🛠️ Database switch: PostgreSQL → MySQL
  Now using MySQL by default, making it easier to self-host with fewer moving parts and lighter containers.

• 🐳 Tiny Dockerfile, Huge Gains
  Completely reworked Dockerfile — now over 4x smaller than before, with a much faster and cleaner build process.

  MinIO is no longer required! Palmr. now uses filesystem storage by default, with support for any S3-compatible object storage if you want to scale.

  Enterprise-friendly SSO is now built-in, letting you connect your favorite OpenID provider with just a few lines of config.

• 🐳 Run without Docker Compose
  You can now run Palmr. directly with Docker — Compose is optional.

• 📚 Cleaner Docs, Smoother Setup
  The installation docs have been rewritten and simplified, making it a breeze to get started.

• 🌍 Multi-language Support
  We’ve added new languages to make Palmr. accessible to more people around the world.

• 🎨 Improved UI & Accessibility
  Subtle visual improvements and color adjustments to make the interface more readable and accessible.

• 🔁 Password Recovery Without SMTP
  No SMTP config? No problem. You can now reset passwords directly via terminal.

  A bunch of small bugs squashed and under-the-hood enhancements.
