Codex - Note-taking app for programmers and CS students

What's new in 2.0.5

As always, make backups of your save data (save.json and notes folder) before updating and regularly.
General
- Updated to Electron 32 and Node.js 20
- Added Russian localization (@wennerryle) #85
- Updated MathLive to 0.104
- This adds a new menu in the Math Editor to insert common math expressions easily, like a matrix.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where favoriting / unfavoriting pages doesn't work.
- Fixed an issue where the textContent of notes was not being saved, which is what the search bar uses to find text.
- If the search bar is not correctly finding text in your notes, you might need to go through your pages manually and re-save them to generate each page's text content for searching.
