Hey everyone, I'm really happy to announce that AoS Reminders can now handle Azyr PDFs! This took me a LOT of time and effort to figure out, but I think the result is pretty darn cool. Just export your list from Azyr and then drop it in - it will be automatically parsed, and your reminders will be ready for you

Pretty cool, right?

If you come across any bugs or any wonky behavior please let me know! I wrote a ton of tests, but there are so many ways to configure armies in AoS that I'm sure I missed a case.

You can find the full changelog here: https://github.com/daviseford/aos-reminders/releases/tag/v2.3.0

I've copy pasted it below:

Added Azyr PDF import functionality (!!!!!!)

Added Google Analytics events to track errors and usage of this feature
Added 47 test PDFs for broad test coverage
Added unit tests for PDF parsing
Added source detection - the same dropzone handles Warscroll Builder text/pdf files, and Azyr pdf files
Generalized PDF import logic between Warscroll Builder and Azyr
Added `PDF.js` (from Mozilla) dependency in order to parse Azyr files

Select menus now stay open until closed (by exonian)
Improved mobile formatting on smaller screens
