Actual Server repository move
In February 2025 the actual-server repository will be merged into the Actual repository.
The reasons for this change are as follows:
- Streamlines Development: Developers will only need to clone/sync one repo instead of two.
- Improves Debugging: It makes end-to-end debugging for server/client easier as they will be in the same workspace.
- Simplifies Desktop App Packaging: Enables the desktop app to embed the sync server.
- Ensures code consistency and reduces the maintenance burden.
- Simplifies the release process
Questions:
-
Q. I use Docker Hub/Github's container registry, how do I stay up to date?
A. We will continue to push images to Docker Hub and Github's container registry as usual.
-
