Note that + we did not test MacOS (anyone got a free Macbook lying around?! :-); seriously: if you work on MacOS + we'd be happy about some feedback!) + - the QGis connector plugin is now in the public + [QGis plugin directory](https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/avaframeConnector/) + and installable via the QGis plugin manager. This allows you to run the standard operational + workflow from within QGis. + - see our [installation instructions](https://docs.avaframe.org/en/latest/installation.html) for more information + +- Our testing / code coverage has improved considerably. We are still long ways away from perfect, but this is an + ongoing process. As a side-note: we switched from codecoverage to codeclimate as service provider, since we felt we + gain more insights this way. + +- Modules with the most substantial changes are: + - *com1DFA*: + - any resolution is possible (also see the new [FAQ](https://docs.avaframe.org/en/latest/FAQ.html)) + - option to track particles by ID and know which parent particle they originate from. + - include entrainment thickness from shapefiles + - new option for the initialisation of particle mass + - *ana3AIMEC*: adjust raster cellsize (for different resolutions) and mass analysis plots + +- And as always: many more functional changes under the hood, see the main ones in our + [release notes](https://docs.avaframe.org/en/latest/releaseNotes.html). + +We invite you to give this version a try, especially the *standard installation using QGis*.
