May 2025 monthly summary for Class-Widgets/Class-Widgets. Key features delivered include a cross-platform packaging workflow based on PyInstaller for Windows, Debian 10 Linux, and macOS, featuring matrix builds, Python environment setup, dependency management, packaging, artifact uploads, and conditional Windows signing to streamline the build and release process. Window top-most behavior improvements for floating widgets and dialogs were implemented with Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint/Qt.Tool flags and a timer-based mechanism, delivering more reliable on-screen stacking, with robust Windows handling. A weather alert display feature was added to the weather widget, including UI elements, animations, and a DB integration to fetch alert titles, along with a view toggle between temperature and alerts. Automatic color mode switching based on system theme was introduced via a DarkModeWatcher to keep the app appearance in sync with user preferences.
