Version 0.25 (2025.11.18):

  1. KioskForge now also supports Ubuntu Server 24.04.3 for Raspberry Pis.
  2. A new option, visible, was added that specifies whether or not the kiosk is discoverable by KioskForge itself.
  3. Fixed the broken PipeWire audio subsystem initialization, which was broken by an Ubuntu (kernel?) update.
  4. Renamed the KioskForge apply command to prepare as it really prepares an installation medium for use.
  5. The user's password is now hashed (made unreadable) by KioskForge on the installation medium for security reasons.
  6. The user_name kiosk configuration field has been removed as KioskForge now creates two users: kiosk and shell. The kiosk user is used to launch and run the kiosk. It is not possible to log in via SSH as that user. The shell user is intended for SSH logins to the kiosk, in case you need to inspect or modify the kiosk after it has been deployed.
  7. Upgraded development and embedded Python to v3.13.7.
