Sprinted a few community requests before Frappeverse, here's the overview.

User Invites

New users can now be invited to Drive via a simple email. A new role has also been added to handle external users labelled as Drive Guest. You can read more about details in the documentation.

Activity Log

Quickly glance at the changes on a file, folder, or document. All editors of a file can view the activity log. Currently renaming, creation and permission changes are supported.

Timed Sharing

Automatically expire sharing rules on the selected date. When the said date is reached all sharing rules on a file are revoked, this may or may not contain when sharing a large folder between multiple users with shared ownership. Stop by and file some bug reports.

Per User Storage

Per user storage has been added to divvy up your entire storage between users, since the total disk space isn't scaled for each user. Storage quota management is entirely manual. Refer to the documentation to set this up.

File Tagging

File tagging has been refactored and re-introduced for a better UX out of the box. Tags are shared between all users and all pages support filtering by tags.

Highlight Changes

When reverting to an older version of your document. You can now highlight the changes to quickly evaluate all the differences.

Other Changes

  • Routing Fixes: Routing and error page handling has been refactored to transition more smoothly into pages. Drive Guest permissions have been added to routes they aren't allowed to visit.

  • Printing: PDF's, images, docs, and the document editor. All have a print option present in the navbar menu now. Printing requires "Allow Download" to be permitted when sharing.

  • Storage Limit UI: Self hosted users can now add or edit the disk storage limit directly from desk instead of the config file. Refer to the documentation to see how to do this.

Beautiful read, and an insight into an individual I respect and have learned a lot from. Am inspired to trust the process and never give up.

I must say this is a really amazing post, and for some of my friends who provide Best British Assignment Help, I must recommend this post to them.
