# 15.16.0: Connect to Cypress Cloud in fewer clicks

ReleasedReleased on May 25, 2026

You can now sign up for Cypress Cloud directly from the desktop app, not just log in. Both the sign-up and log-in modals start browser authentication the moment they open, so the extra click is gone. This release also fixes a silent install failure on Node 24.16+ and 26.1+, and updates `esbuild` to `^0.28.0` to fix an issue with TLS certificate validation during session resumption.
