Spotlight

This release delivers three major initiatives that significantly expand Logseq’s capabilities:

  • Mobile Experience Overhaul - Complete redesign of the mobile interface, replacing Ionic with a custom Silk framework. This brings improved navigation, better touch interactions, and enhanced performance across iOS and Android platforms.

    Semantic Search - Introduction of local AI-powered semantic search using embedding models and HNSWLIB. Users can now search by meaning and context, not just keywords, with hybrid search combining traditional and semantic results.

  • Logseq CLI - New command-line interface offering offline search, graph querying, data export, and graph management capabilities. Developers and power users can now interact with Logseq graphs programmatically.
