The update, in brief
Bases turns local notes into database-style views using properties, filters and formulas. Data stays in Markdown files and YAML properties, with view definitions stored in .base files.
Availability details
The release changes legacy property names tag, alias and cssclass to their plural forms; the Format converter offers migration.
Questions this record can answer
What compatibility change should existing vault owners check?
Desktop 1.9.10 removes tag, alias and cssclass in favor of list-valued tags, aliases and cssclasses. Its Format converter can migrate the older names and incorrect formats. Inspect these properties when evaluating this release for an existing vault.
