QMC Utilities 3.1.0 Release Notes
3.1.0 is mostly a bug fix release for certain plugins packaged with the installer, but the minor version change is a result of some additional updates detailed below. First, the core and plugin updates.
Core Updates

devMode - Dev Mode is a flag in the config.js of QMC Utilities that turns off the Qlik Sense authentication middleware in QMC Utilities and relies upon service accounts and certificate authentication to perform operations. Great for testing!

Big News!
This will be the last QMC Utilities installer to include plugins. We are making a decision to move away from making a bundled installer including utilities because we will be releasing guidelines for creating your own plugins in the near future.
We will continue to package the QMC Utilities framework into an installer, however, plugins will be installed either through a package management system post install or manually by pulling zip files from the individual plugin repositories. The goal here is to reduce the time it takes to supply bug fixes to plugins and to encourage plugin development.
More information will be shared as well as guidelines on contributing soon. Thank you to everyone for your support on this project.
