Introducing FLECS 3.3.0-Hedgehog: What’s New and Exciting?

June 7, 2024

We are thrilled to announce the release of FLECS 3.3.0-Hedgehog! This version brings a host of new features and improvements designed to enhance your experience and streamline your workflows. Here’s what’s new:


Key Updates in FLECS 3.3.0-Hedgehog

1. Device-Based Licensing: Our licensing model has been revamped. Licenses are now tied to devices rather than individual users. This means once a device is activated by User A, it will also be recognized as activated for User B. This change simplifies the activation process and ensures seamless transitions between users.

2. App Labeling in Manifest: You can now assign labels to apps within the manifest. This feature allows for better organization and categorization of your apps, making it easier to manage and navigate your app library.

3. Environment Management via WebApp: Manage your Docker container environments directly from the FLECS WebApp. Set, change, and delete environments without needing to use the command line or pre-configure settings. This provides greater flexibility and control over your app management. For more details, please refer to our documentation.

4. NET_RAW Capability for Apps: Apps can now utilize the NET_RAW capability. This addition enhances the networking functionalities available to your apps, allowing for more advanced networking operations.

5. Direct Purchase of App Licenses: Purchasing app licenses has never been easier. You can now jump directly to the purchase page from within the WebApp, streamlining the process of acquiring new licenses and expanding your app capabilities.
