Releases: BurntToasters/driverWeb
5.0.0 - Rewritten: Re-imagined.
DriverWeb V5
Welcome to the next MAJOR release of DriverWeb. A website and DB for common windows 10/11 drivers.
V5 is the biggest change in all of driverWeb / driverhub.win's history.
The entire UI has been re-written and gone is the old style of V1-V4. See below for all the major changes
- Homepage:
- The homepage now shows currently updated drivers from the driverWeb-data repo list.
- A new Recommendation Wizard has been added to select drivers with specific filters.
- A new search bar has been added that globally searches DriverWeb
- Major visual facelift and redesign using tailwindcss version 3.
- Graphics Drivers:
- The Graphics Drivers page has been fully redesigned to support filtering.
- Compare - Select multiple drivers to compare their versions!
- More driver details are now available due to driverWeb-data's 2.0 SCHEMA!
- And even more!
- API:
- The entire JSON schema has been updated from the original (now called v1) to V2. The driverWeb repo interacts with the driverWeb-data repo locally via npm with scripts in driverWeb that allow for easy CLI updating of driver lists and caches the changes in driverWeb and updates the changes in DriverWeb-data. The cached version in DriverWeb is only used if the site fails to communicate with github's API.
- Network/Audio:
Gone since V1, the network/audio page is back (kind of)- Current both pages serve common drivers that point to the windows catalog. This will change in the future.
There is probably a lot I forgot to add, but I'm hopefully you all will enjoy this big QOL release :)

As a side note, driverWeb is migrating from my rexxit.net project collective to rosie.run. This isn't a major change or anything mainly just the parent project name.
