Oxen Weekly Dev Update #169
Oxen released Weekly Dev Update #169 about new Session App desktop release, Testing and improving UX of calls on Sessions mobile clients & more.
🔹Oxen Core
Further updates to wallet3 work https://github.com/oxen-io/oxen-core/pull/1490
🔹Lokinet
This past week saw them focus on improving the interface for the embedded version of Lokinet (AKA “liblokinet”), developing language bindings for nodejs aimed at allowing for initial Lokinet testing and development in the desktop version of Session. They also remedied an issue with systemd support on slightly older Linux distributions, developed a new Windows route handler (to help fix IPv6 connectivity leaks on Windows), and developed a new RPC call which allows the new Lokinet GUI code to more efficiently interact with Lokinet.
