The team also pushed PEP 783 to stan…

  6. One App, More Than One Native Window

    Codename One now supports true native desktop windows via a new `Window` class that separates per‑surface state (paint queue, input routing, native peers) from the global `Display`. The change adds a `PaintSurface` abstraction, platform‑specific window back‑ends (AWT/Swing, Direct2D, GTK, UIWindowScene), and a migration path for components that assumed a single `Form`. Initial release has some UI…
