131# Intiface Engine v2.0.0 (2024/01/21)
132
133## Breaking Changes
134
135- Removed sentry/crash reporting
136 - This is now a library AND a CLI. If someone is using the CLI, they're using it in their own
137 setup they can wrap it in whatever crash reporter they want. Moving crash reporting up to Intiface Central.
138- Removed logging for library instances
139 - Intiface was originally built as a CLI and meant to be run only as such. Now that it's a CLI and
140 a library, we need to let applications handle their own logging. The CLI build still has logging features, but library now just exposes a log/tracing interface.
141- Removed Websocket Frontend
142 - This was used when we were letting other programs run the CLI. Now that there's a library mode,
143 we expect applications to just attach directly. This makes things more secure overall, and if users want it back, they can implement their own frontend using the trait.
144- All above changes will mostly be reflected externally in either missing CLI arguments, or updates
145 to the EngineOptions struct.
146- The v2 line may be fairly short, as the engine will once again have a major revision once Buttplug
147 moves to its new spec and therefore new major revision.
148
