I had to update a few things here like run destination, category, minimum OS, and the bundle identifier so that I could then push to testflight

I got very very carried away so I’ll just put a paragraph here
The first thing I did was add haptics when you open/close a sheet and when you change tabs, because these are navigation actions, so I thought it makes sense.
I also implemented TipKit to show about 10 different Tips around the app, helping the user find out how to use the app and make use of all of its features. It was quite annoying to make TipKit work because there isn’t much support online and its quite an obscure framework, as every other Apple framework seems to be 😭
Then I implemented accessibility across the app, accounting for text sizes, reduce motion, increase contrast and reduce transparency. It was actually very easy since the modifiers were really simple to use, like .accessibilityHint("This button adds this element to your bookmarks").
I also adjusted the pickers in list view to use a better background, and also added a new picker that can filter only bookmarks or just push them to the top.
I added some sheet transitions which are really nice, they make the sheet zoom out of the place where you clicked it, instead of just from the bottom of the screen, which is quite buggy but because of Apple’s api, not something I can fix.
I also had another really annoying thing where I couldn’t make the app read from the bundle, so I couldn’t load any json into it, so I had to hand-paste the massive json file into a Swift string, I finally fixed that now
And for the bookmarks I added a bookmark detail view in settings to see and delete them
I also added some progressiveblur at the top of the list view because for some reason .searchable removes all scroll edge effects and toolbar items, so it removed the auto-placed effect that keeps the time and status legible, so I had to just check if the keyboard was visible (because then the edge effect would be gone) and apply my own edge effect

i completely rewrote the quiz view, which uses apple intelligence to make and mark a quiz, and alert the user of their score, which i found quite hard because the model is quite small, and that meant my token size was small, only 4096 tokens, and also it just wasn’t very capable of following instructions, or marking questions properly (i gave it the question and right answer and user selection it still failed). i found that telling it not to do something explicitly made it do that thing, so my best option was to not talk about what not to do or else it would very much do that thing. i also added the usual transitions and animations to the questions and buttons etc. i quite like how the ai also generates the alert title and message and button, making it quite unique and unpredictable, which in this rare case is actually a good thing!

I’ve updated teh ui, and also added lens switching and better zoom. there is a slight problem with legibility and also discovering lenses reliably but ill fix them later, I’m really happy with the image space saving. i used HEIC, which is already really efficient, then applied further extreme compression to take down the size to 15kb each, allowing me to keep fps at 10 and resolution at max

i refined the charts, and added transitions and hover selection. i will add more charts later probably

added watch app, and going to start developing that

added delete account, and in the process also fixed signup and log in functionality because they were also returning mismatching types and showing an error even when it was successful

updated blur to look better at the cost of a bit of performance

after a lot of time got the cdn and server and frontend working, wace.jdqc.dev

… my currency is not pounds

these locale and currency things are really annoying

alright i made it smaller and also fixed the layout bugs that came as a result of the card getting taller etc

now i need to add price (somehow for multiple countries - maybe i need to have it as a relative scale not absolute for each currency), and other filters, and other things

fully removed all references to other devices, now I’m going to expand the information a little bit and add the actual features that will help with buying

after a very very long amount of torture I’ve decided that i can only do iphones because of the way apple’s source device iamges work, because teh iphones have scaling in photo while other devices have scaling set externally which would take me a very long time to replicate myself. so i will focus all on iphones.

this layout system is almost done, i need to fight with teh z-index a bit and then I’m done ill add more devices and properties

alright i fixed that error and another one that was complaining. Next Image props are very coconfusing and have weird quirks about autosizing and apsect ratio etc.

ok i pushed to production and added https and git push production

ok its working now i need to deploy

trying to make it draggable, proving quite hard

i think tis nearly done, it doesnt explain what it does much yet

not done yet, but better already, I’m starting to style the specifics instead of just dumping everything in.

the text is laid out badly i know but i really like these backgrounds that are really subtle like a blur or glass and with a thin border

very ugly right now

i settles on no background for navbar, think its quite clean, and will be readable since the whole website will be exactly 100vh so there isnt going to be any content udnerneath it

finished most of the data for iphones, now i will make the ui home page, then the actual timeline for the devices

first version

i decided to remove it it doesnt look good

prod server got hacked, trying to figure out what caused it

lucky i commit alot!

fixed the gap and layout between the elements and made journey its own page

started to add a “journey” section to the homepage

added sitemap and made pushing to prod easier

refactoring the whole codebase, updating css names and structures, adding formatting, renaming some components, making as many things as possible server-side.

adding in projects now

added buttons to the home screen and added hover effects across the site

updated some animations between pages

trying to make it look nice but there are so many components and labels for marking etc. also the foundation models are not very good at marking

cleaned up a few things and the revert seems successful so far, added ticks to the stepper and adjusted padding and alignment in the list view
