[frontend] Built-in auto updater (#3845)

2026-04-28T18:42:23+00:00

Checks latest release and opens a dialog containing the changelog, and allow the user to select a specific build to download. After downloading, it prompts the user to open it. On Windows, this just opens up the zip in File Explorer. In the future setup files will be available. On macOS this opens up the DMG in Finder so the user can drag it to the Applications folder. Android retains the auto-update functionality from before, but updated to the new scheme. Body/View on Forgejo are not implemented, that should be in a future PR. Additionally, moved some common httplib incantations to `Common::Net`. This will serve as the common network accessor and JSON parser from here on out. TODO: - [x] android :( - [x] Search for builds based on keywords, with weights towards certain builds (e.g. macOS will search for dmg then tar.gz, windows msvc then mingw/exe then zip, etc.) - [x] remove linux leftovers - [x] don't allow asset selection on platforms w/o assets - [x] nightly changelog should be in the real FUTURE IMPLEMENTATION: - [ ] Body/View on Forgejo for Android - [ ] Setup files for Windows (Eden/nightly are separate) -- maybe portable/setup selector? - [ ] Something else I'm forgetting Signed-off-by: crueter Reviewed-on: https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/pulls/3845

[frontend] Change update checker to use new endpoints (#3879)

2026-04-24T16:40:49+00:00

Related: [RFC3870](https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/issues/3870) Nightly and stable releases are now served through `nightly.eden-emu.dev` and `stable.eden-emu.dev`, respectively. These are stored using Backblaze, and served and cached through the Cloudflare CDN. Ideally this will reduce costs, though I'll have to wait for my first invoice to be certain. These will serve as the new download locations going forward. Since we have full control over this API, we can make any adjustments we want as needed. For now, all it does is provide `tag_name`, `name`, and `body`, the latter of which will be used for the upcoming updater PR.

[frontend] Force https on bundled OpenSSL (#3843)

2026-04-08T19:27:10+00:00

For some unknown reason, bundled OpenSSL likes the `https` scheme, whereas system OpenSSL (on Gentoo at least) does not... even when the bundled OpenSSL is built exactly like the Gentoo one, certificate and all...

[common/logging] Simplify logging logic and fix issues when logging before system is created (#3688)

2026-03-12T17:29:15+00:00

- our logging code was bigger than spdlog itself, why???? just keep it simple - fix issues when logging before logging system is even started - removes the "initialized logging twice" issue - removes uneeded indirection in file logging - uses direct formatting instead of jumping hoopla-around the fmt::format() ressult - code duplication and dead code removal as usual I did explore dup2() but I think it's not worth the hassle I did try `fwopen()` but it's better if things are just kept as-is. there is a lot of noise because I removed a bunch of redundant files on logging and just put everything in one file now normally this wouldn't be a good idea, however consider: the complexity of logging; it's less than 500 lines... does it really need a whole subsystem?!?!?!
