The last few Unison versions have contained a multitude of features and UX improvements, performance boosts, and bug fixes. Here's a summary of the important user-facing changes from 0.5.29 to the latest UCM version 0.5.33:
UCM Desktop support
Our 0.5.31 release coincided with support for UCM Desktop, a new way to interact with Unison from your desktop. UCM Desktop is a standalone application that provides a graphical interface to Unison, making it easier to navigate your codebase, inspect dependencies, and view documentation. This release reaches parity with the existing local UI. You can (and should!) download UCM Desktop from the Unison Desktop releases page. Make sure your UCM version is up to date to use this new interface.
