Version 1.0.0 is here. jschan is mature enough and there's no need to go to version 0.999, but this does not mean it is perfect or complete!
I want to keep improving jschan and there are plenty of new features and changes planned for versions 2, 3, and beyond.
Version 1.0.0 is here. jschan is stable and mature enough and has been for a while. There's no need to go to version 0.9999.9999 and I am comfortable enough to call it "Version 1".
Of course, that doesn't mean jschan is perfect or finished by any means. I want to keep improving jschan and there are plenty of new features and changes planned for versions 2, 3, and beyond.
Thank you so much to all the jschan site admins, users & contributors for your help along the way. Your contributions have been invaluable to making this software great.
Special shoutout to l29utp0 & loynet (ptchan.org), Homicide (94chan.org) and some_random_guy (trashchan.xyz).

Now, back to the program. Here are the changes for 1.0.0, with one especially notable feature:
- Multiple language support. jschan now supports language packs. There is a global and board-level language setting which completely translates the interface to another language. No javascript required.
- An effort has been made to translate everything, but given there is almost 4 years of code, some things may have slipped through the cracks. If something isn't translated, please report it on gitgud.
- 1.0.0 includes three* language packs: English (en-GB) and Portuguese (pt-PT) (Russian machine translation is also included, but may not be accurate).
- Huge credit to the ptchan.org admins for providing the Portuguese translation.
- Contributions for new language packs or improvements to existing ones are very welcome! Reach out via email/IRC to discuss imbursement for contributing language packs.
- Note: "global" pages e.g. overboards will adhere to global language setting. In a future iteration, these will be updated to (optionally, with global setting) support adhering to users browser language header for better UX going between a non-global language board and global pages.
- Improve the css and markup to only show the appropriate wording e.g "tap" or "click" in tooltips depending if you are on mobile/desktop.

- **Multiple language support.**
jschan now supports language packs. There is a global and board-level language setting which completely translates the interface to another language. Using server side rendering and logic, so it remains noscript compatible.
