Guy Sheffer has just released OctoPi 1.0.0 - big thanks to him and also to everyone who helped test the release candidates and the nightly builds that went into this and reported back!
You may want to correct the the statement above "It therefore would note be a bad idea to create a backup" to "It therefore would not be a bad idea to create a backup"
Just to be shure:
When I´m running 1.0.0 RC3, no Update to this official Ver. 1.0.0 is needed?
(And, if I´m wrong, I have to install the Image 1.0.0 from the scratch?)
Thanks much for supporting this to be available in the Raspberry Pi Imager. So easy to create an image this way! Hit 'shift+ctrl+x to bring up options to add wifi and login credentials.
Also, thanks for a solid backup option. It's so nice to create backup, create a new SD card image and just upload your backup and be right back where your setup was but on new code! Very nice!
The OctoPi that is available through OctoPrint.org - Download & Setup OctoPrint or the RPi imager is kept up to date with the latest version of OctoPrint, so you would get 1.8.7 out of the box. These builds are made here
