Version 1.10.0 focuses on workflow improvements across the app. The headline change is full multi-window support, plus a more capable JSON Editor.
Multi-Window Support
DevKnife now supports multiple windows. Open another window to work on different tools side-by-side or keep a focused tool window while you continue working elsewhere.

JSON Editor Improvements
The JSON Editor adds smarter formatting and repair tools:
- Smart Format keeps short objects inline and expands nested structures.
- Auto-repair attempts to fix invalid JSON and restore a valid document.
- Tree actions let you expand/collapse nodes and copy a subtree as JSON from the context menu.

Quality Improvements
- IP Location now includes a menu link to documentation that explains where to download a compatible .mmdb database.
Wrapping Up
That’s everything in 1.10.0. Multi-window support is a major workflow unlock, and the JSON Editor improvements should remove a lot of friction when working with real-world data.
