 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. For commit guidelines, please refer to [Standard Version](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/standard-version).

+## v0.3.3
+
+  **New Features**
+  - Navigating remembers your previous scroll position when opening items and then navigating backwards.
+  - New Icons with larger selection of file types
+  - file "type" is shown on item info page.
+  - added optional non-root "filebrowser" user for docker image. See https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/251
+  - File preview supports more file types:
+    - images: jpg, bmp, gif, tiff, png, svg, heic, webp
+
+  **Notes**:
+  - The file "type" is now either "directory" or a specific mimetype such as "text/xml".
+  - update safari styling
+
+  **Bugfixes**:
+  - Delete/move file/folders sometimes wouldn't work.
+  - Possible fix for context menu not showing issue. See https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/251
+  - Fixed drag/drop not refreshing immediately to reflect changes.
+
+## v0.3.2
+
+  **New Features**
+  - Mobile search has the same features as desktop.
+
+  **Notes**:
+  - Added compression. Helpful for browsing folders with a large number of items. Considering https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/201 resolved, although future pagination support will still come.
+  - Compressed download options limited to `.zip` and `.tar.gz`
+  - right-click context menu stays in view.
+
+  **Bugfixes**:
+  - search result links when non-default baseUrl configured
+  - frontend sort bug squashed https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/230
+  - bug which caused "noauth" method not to work after v0.3.0 routes update
+
+## v0.3.1
+
+  **New Features**
+  - Adds Smart Indexing by default.
+
+  **Notes**:
+  - Optimized api request response times via improved caching and simplified actions.
+  - User information persists more reliably.
+  - Added [indexing doc](./docs/indexing.md) to explain the expectations around indexing and how it works.
+  - The index should also use less RAM than it did in v0.3.0.
+
+  **Bugfixes**:
+  - Tweaked sorting by name, fixes case sensitive and numeric sorting. https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/230
+  - Fixed unnecessary authentication status checks each route change
+  - Fix create file action issue.
+  - some small javascript related issues.
+  - Fixes pretty big bug viewing raw content in v0.3.0 (utf format message)
+
+## v0.3.0
+
+  This Release focuses on the API and making it more accessible for developers to access functions without the UI.
+
+  **New Features**:
+  - You can now long-live api tokens to interact with API from the user settings page.
+    - These tokens have the same permissions as your user.
+  - Helpful swagger page for API usage.
+  - Some API's were refactored for friendlier API usage, moving some attributes to parameters and first looking for a api token, then using the stored cookie if none is found. This allows for all api requests from swagger page to work without a token.
+  - Add file size to search preview! Should have been in last release... sorry!
+
+  **Notes**:
+  - Replaced backend http framework with go standard library.
+  - Right-click Context menu can target the item that was right-clicked. To fully address https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/214
+  - adjusted settings menu for mobile, always shows all available cards rather than grayed out cards that need to be clicked.
+  - longer and more cryptographically secure share links based on UUID rather than base64.
+
+  **Bugfixes**:
+  - Fixed ui bug with shares with password.
+  - Fixes baseurl related bugs https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/pull/228 Thanks @SimLV
+  - Fixed empty directory load issue.
+  - Fixed image preview cutoff on mobile.
+  - Fixed issue introduced in v0.2.10 where new files and folders were not showing up on ui
+  - Fixed preview issue where preview would not load after viewing video files.
+  - Fixed sorting issue where files were not sorted by name by default.
+  - Fixed copy file prompt issue
+
+## v0.2.10
+
+  **New Features**:
+  - Allows user creation command line arguments https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/196
+  - Folder sizes are always shown, leveraging the index. https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/138
+  - Searching files based on filesize is no longer slower.
+
+  **Bugfixes**:
+  - fixes file selection usage when in single-click mode https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/214
+  - Fixed displayed search context on root directory
+  - Fixed issue searching "smaller than" actually returned files "larger than"
+
+  **Notes**:
+  - Memory usage from index is reduced by ~40%
+  - Indexing time has increased 2x due to the extra processing time required to calculate directory sizes.
+  - File size calculations use 1024 base vs previous 1000 base (matching windows explorer)
+

 ```
-./filebrowser -c <filebrowser.yml or other /path/to/config.yaml>
+./filebrowser -c <config.yaml or other /path/to/config.yaml>
 ```

+## Command Line Usage
+
+There are very few commands available. There are 3 actions done via the command line:
+
+1. Running the program, as shown in the install step. The only argument used is the config file if you choose to override the default "config.yaml"
+2. Checking the version info via `./filebrowser version`
+3. Updating the DB, which currently only supports adding users via `./filebrowser set -u username,password [-a] [-s "example/scope"]`
+
+## API Usage
+
+FileBrowser Quantum allows for the creation of API tokens which can create users, access file information, and update user settings just like what can be done from the UI. You can create API tokens from the settings page via "API Management" section. This section will only show up if the user has "API" permissions, which can be granted by editing the user in user management.
+
+Regardless of whether a user has API permissions, anyone can visit the swagger page which is found at `/swagger`. This swagger page uses a short-live token (2-hour exp) that the UI uses, but allows for quick access to all the API's and their described usage and requirements:
+
+![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/12abd1f6-21d3-4437-98ed-9b0da6cf2c73)
+
+When using the API outside of swagger, you will need to set the API token as a bearer token authentication type. This means the authorization header will look like `Authorization: Bearer <token>`. For example in Postman:

-## Migration from filebrowser/filebrowser
-
-If you currently use the original opensource filebrowser 
-but want to try using this. I recommend you start fresh without
-reusing the database, but there are a few things you'll need to do if you
-must migrate:
-
-1. Create a configuration file as mentioned above.
-2. Copy your database file from the original filebrowser to the path of
-   the new one.
-3. Update the configuration file to use the database (under server in
-   filebrowser.yml)
-4. If you are using docker, update the docker-compose file or docker run
-   command to use the config file as described in the install section
-   above.
-5. If you are not using docker, just make sure you run filebrowser -c
-   filebrowser.yml and have a valid filebrowser config.
-
-
-The filebrowser Quantum application should run with the same user and rules that
-you have from the original. But keep in mind the differences that are
-mentioned at the top of this readme.
+## Migration from the original filebrowser

+If you currently use the original filebrowser but want to try using this. 
+I would recommend that you start fresh without reusing the database. However, 
+If you want to migrate your existing database to FileBrowser Quantum, 
+visit the [migration 
+readme](./docs/migration.md)
