2.0.5

GUI assets now install reliably across supported platforms.

  • Updated package-data and source-manifest configuration to distribute PNG and ICO assets.
  • Fixed GUI startup failures caused by icon.ico or related image assets being omitted from installed distributions.
  • Fixed package configuration so the complete dollarwave/assets image set is included in wheels and source distributions.
  • Complete GUI installation — Package distributions now include the icons and images required by the desktop interface.
  • Reliable startup — Installed applications can resolve the bundled GUI icon instead of failing because the asset is absent.

1.0.0

Initial CPI-based inflation calculations with a straightforward Python API.

  • Added annual-average fallback behavior when monthly CPI data is unavailable.
  • Added range validation for original and comparison years.
