Makes my wayland session crash

[alfdupont]

I tried running carbon-now on a random .go file from my Sway session, it opened an instance of chromium, and my Wayland session closed immediately. I didn't have time to see an error message.

As I’m finalizing the huge v2 release, I’ve decided to run a small beta of it. 🙂

v2 is a complete rewrite that now uses Playwright instead of Puppeteer. Playwright supports real file downloads and is well maintained, leading to a more stable UX in the future. Most issues opened in carbon-now-cli were due to Puppeteer’s inability to actually wait for the file to download and many other OS inconsistencies & hiccups.

To install the v2 beta run

npm i carbon-now-cli@beta -g

Docs 🚀 for v2 can be found here. 🙂 There are tons of new features and breaking changes, so make sure to re-read the docs if you’ve read them previously.

Happy testing and using! Looking forward to your feedback!
v2 will officially drop any day now. 🥳

P. S: I’m almost embarrassed about how long it took me to start working on v2, but at least once I did, I shipped it quite fast. 🙃 No more activity slumps in the future, though. 🤞
