Planned

2

Decided, without dates yet.

First public release
A downloadable installer on this site, with its checksum and release notes. No date yet.

Known gaps

4

Found in testing. Not promises.

Windows 10
WorkTool is built for Windows 10 too, but hasn't been tested on it.
Dragging files out to File Explorer
Dropping files in works; dragging them out doesn't yet. Copy and paste works both ways.
Snap layouts menu
The custom title bar doesn't show Windows 11's snap layouts menu on the maximize button.
Real Google and Microsoft sign-ins
The popup mechanism they use is tested; real sign-ins with accounts haven't been.
