Puranjay Savar Mattas 0da26e0fed Merge pull request 'fix(about): About Outpost opens Settings' About section, no popup window' (#10) from fix/about-menu-no-popup into main

Puranjay Savar Mattas 6ffba3be02 fix(about): About Outpost opens Settings' About section, no popup window
"About Outpost" in the app menu used to open a separate standalone
window (Window(id: "about") wrapping AboutView). Now just opens Settings
and jumps straight to the About section instead — same content
(AboutInfoView, unchanged), one less window/code path to maintain.

Also removed the "Check for Updates…" button — deferred per explicit
instruction, not deleted for a real reason beyond "not now." A simple
button can come back later; no update-checking logic was ever built; ,
nothing else to clean up alongside it.

Puranjay Savar Mattas 410049d161 docs: fix wiki links, they need a trailing .- to resolve correctly
Confirmed live against the actual Gitea wiki — hyperlinks to
hyphenated wiki page names 404 without a trailing .-, e.g.
.../wiki/Privacy-Policy needs to be .../wiki/Privacy-Policy.-

Puranjay Savar Mattas fe275ac17c docs: README — logo, real TestFlight link, drop Status, expand Privacy
- Logo and a TestFlight download badge at the top.
- Removed the Status/phase checklist — CLAUDE.md already tracks this,
  duplicating it in the README just goes stale.
- Requirements corrected to what the project actually targets right
  now (Xcode 27+, macOS 27+) instead of stale Xcode 16/iOS 17 numbers.
- Privacy section expanded with a real inline summary, linking out to
  the wiki for the full Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and Data
  Processing Statement rather than duplicating them as repo files.

A native Apple ecosystem client for [Outline](https://github.com/outline/outline) — built for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS from a single SwiftUI codebase, aiming for full editing parity with Outline's web app, including realtime collaborative editing.
> **Early alpha — macOS only for now.** Expect missing features and rough edges. iOS/iPadOS support is planned but not in the current build. See the [releases page](https://git.psmattas.com/psmattas/Outpost/releases) for changelogs, and [open an issue](https://git.psmattas.com/psmattas/Outpost/issues) if you hit anything.
## Why
Outline's web app is great, but there's no native Apple client with full editing parity. This project connects to a self-hosted Outline instance over its REST API and realtime collaboration socket to provide a proper native experience across the Apple ecosystem.
## Status
Early development. See `CLAUDE.md` for the current architecture and phased build plan.
- [ ] Phase 1 — Auth, browse, search, REST-only editing
- [ ] Phase 2 — Realtime collaborative editing (Yjs/Hocuspocus)
- [ ] Phase 3 — Offline cache, tables, embeds, comments, macOS polish
## Requirements
- Xcode 16+
- iOS 17+ / iPadOS 17+ / macOS 14+
- Xcode 27+ (currently developed against an Xcode 27 beta — this is a hard minimum, not a suggestion)
- macOS 27+. iOS/iPadOS support is planned but not in the current build (see the alpha note above) — same 27+ minimum will apply once it lands
- A self-hosted (or hosted) Outline instance with API access
> They will be updated. These are old requirements.
## Setup
1. Clone the repo and open the `.xcodeproj` in Xcode.

## Privacy
Outpost collects nothing about you — no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting of its own, no age or demographic data, nothing. The only thing stored locally is your Outline server URL and API token (in the device Keychain) and, optionally, a local offline cache of what you've viewed. Everything else goes straight from your device to whatever Outline server you configure — there's no backend in between, and the developer has no access to your data or your server.
