## Thanks for your patience
We want to thank the community for being patient with waiting for the next update.
## New Lighter Manifest
We have spent several months rewriting how RetroDECK is built from the ground up.
In doing so we have:
- Reduced the application size with 600mb.
- Building RetroDECK went from 3.30 hours to 1 hour! It makes it easier for new developers to contribute.
## Launch with RetroDECK (RetroENGINE)
You can now directly launch assign and launch game files in the Linux Desktop (Desktop Mode) with RetroDECK.
DESCRIBE AND FANCY PICTURES
## Launch with games via CLI
A sub function of this is that you can now launch games via CLI.
## Steam Rom Manager & Steam Sync
RetroDECK is now shipping with SRM-built in.
DESCRIBE AND FANCY PICTURES WITH SUGAR
## PortMaster
DESCRIBE AND FANCY PICTURES WITH SHIPS AND STUFF AND MASTERS AND MAYBE PORTS
## New RetroDECK ES-DE Theme
We got our own theme and consider it the first version of it.
## New Website
We soft launched it before, but we are considering it a part of this update! Have you found the hidden games yet?

<li>New feature for Desktop: RetroENGINE, now RetroDECK can be used as an headless engine to run your gaems. Just duouble click them!</li>
<li>New default theme: RetroDECK now got its own custom theme for ES-DE, do you like it? Feel free to give us feedback</li>
<li>We soft laucnhed our new website earlier, come to take a look at retrodeck.net!</li>
</ul>
<p>Changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Duckstation due to licensing changes is frozen at the latest possible build becoming de facto: Legacy</li>
<li>Duckstation configured to use OpenGL as Vulkan seems to be broken in some cases</li>
<li>Because of Steam Sync, Favorites collection is now enabled by default on ES-DE</li>
<li>ES-DE Updated to 3.1.1 with language support and more</li>
<li>ES-DE main menu tide up, because of our configurator there were too many entries, moved ES-DE specific configs inside a custom menu</li>
</ul>
<p>Developers, developers, developers:</p>
<ul>
<li>Manifest was completely redone, more on that on the October blog post</li>
<li>RetroDECK now is migrated to an organization on GitHub, as before, please check the October blog post</li>
<li>pre_build_automation script was reworked and additional functions are added</li>
<li>Contributing is now easier and the manifest build time is down to about 1h (was 3h30)</li>
</ul>
