🚨 ATTENTION: Breaking changes!

The config is now done in the config.ini. All values from the utils.py get lost (as before). The changes in the config.ini will persists future updates.

This discussion was created from the release v1.0.20230531.

[mr-manuel]

We are proud, that finally the next stable release is here. There are tons of changes and improvements! Also the documentation was updated and had a lot of improvements with the goal to make it as clear as possible for everyone.

We'd love to hear your feedback and thougs.

[wollew]

My thoughts are: great stuff, thank you :-)

[Becker884]

Looks great, I'm looking forward to the new float voltage function tomorrow !
