Bismuth Web 0.2.0

Bismuth Web 0.2.0 is out.

This release mainly focuses on bringing more of the CLI functionality into the web frontend, alongside a fairly large cleanup of the converter UI and accessibility.

Added publication fetch mode

The web app can now fetch and convert entire site.standard.publication collections directly from a PDS.

New functionality includes:

DID + publication rkey input
automatic PDS resolution
optional manual PDS override
batch document fetching
per-document Markdown export
download-all support

This uses the same underlying fetch logic as bismuth fetch.

The main reason for adding this was portability. Up until now, the web frontend could only convert pasted JSON. That was fine for testing, but not especially useful for inspecting or exporting existing publications already on the network.

Expanded conversion options

The converter now supports additional conversion controls that previously only existed internally or in the CLI tooling.

Pckt source DID support

blog.pckt.content conversions can now provide a source DID when resolving blob-backed extended mode content.

Without this, some Pckt documents could not be reconstructed correctly in the browser.

Custom page break separators

Leaflet conversions now support custom page separators.

This is mainly useful for:

MDX workflows
static site generators
custom Markdown pipelines
cleaner multi-page exports

UI and UX changes

The converter UI was reworked quite a bit in this release.

Changes include:

separate convert/fetch modes
loading states for long-running operations
copy-to-clipboard feedback
improved download handling
clearer error messaging
multi-document export support

The drag-and-drop upload area was also rebuilt with proper semantic form structure and accessibility support.

Internal changes

exported resolvePdsEndpoint() and listDocuments() from the shared web conversion layer
added reusable download helpers
cleaned up conversion state handling
improved type handling around fetched Standard documents
