Stuped v0.5.1 — Mini-Map, Global Search, Live Reload, and More
Since the initial release five days ago, Stuped has shipped four more versions. Here's a summary of what changed in v0.3.0 through v0.5.1.
v0.3.0 — Mini-Map, Recent Files, Dot Files
The biggest addition is a mini-map: a scaled-down overview of the full document sits on the right edge of the editor. Click or drag it to jump anywhere in the file. Toggle it with ⌘⇧M.
A Recent Files popup (⌘R) works like a command palette: it shows open tabs sorted by recency alongside macOS file history. Type to filter, use arrow keys to navigate, press Enter or click to open. Pressing ⌘R again while the popup is open moves the selection down one row.
You can now toggle dot files in the sidebar with ⌘⇧H — useful when you need to see .env, .gitignore, or .claude/ without them cluttering the tree the rest of the time. The setting persists across launches.
v0.4.0 — Global Search and Live File Reload
Global file search (⌘⇧F) searches every file in the open folder — by name, by contents, or both. Results include the file name, relative path, and a preview of the matching line with its line number. Navigate with arrow keys, open with Enter, dismiss with Escape. A filter prefix (ext:swift, for example) narrows results by file extension.
Live file reload means that when another process writes to an open, unmodified tab, Stuped picks up the change immediately. Tabs with unsaved edits are left untouched.
v0.5.0 — Appearance Override, Fullscreen, View Options
The appearance override in the View menu lets you lock Stuped to Light or Dark mode, or let it follow the system setting — independent of what macOS is set to. The choice persists across launches.
The green zoom button now enters native macOS fullscreen. Dark mode gets a pure black editor and gutter background.
A new View Options toolbar menu (the sliders icon) consolidates Word Wrap, Mini-Map, Show Dot Files, Reveal in File Tree, Recent Files, and Search Files into one dropdown. Reveal in File Tree (⌘⇧J) expands the sidebar to the active file's location — also available via tab right-click. View mode shortcuts Cmd+1/2/3 switch between Edit, Split, and Preview.
The global search dialog is now a native resizable NSPanel with a title bar, close button, drag-to-resize, and position memory. The results and preview panes are separated by a draggable split view.
The file tree now uses lazy loading — only expanded directories are scanned, which keeps startup fast on large projects.
v0.5.1 — Bug Fixes
Clicking a folder in the sidebar now correctly expands or collapses it instead of opening a bogus editor tab. Markdown and split preview render correctly again after switching to files in subdirectories — the bundled Mermaid library no longer relies on blocked file-URL access.
The release CI now builds on macos-26 with Xcode 26.4; the app itself still requires macOS 15 or later.
