I FINISHED THE USER SYSTEM after a ton of uhh.. Pain and suffering! :D

JK, it wasn’t too bad. I did, however encounter a loop of failing code that I couldn’t figure out! Turns out, my localStorage thingy was broken! I accidentally set it wrong!
Anyway, after finally fixing that, I kept going!
I removed the DB from github too lol.
Unfortunately I’ve made no UI changes yet, so there’s really nothing interesting to see.

AI usage:
I debugged a few errors using Gemini, finding the solution. Still no AI code was used.
I found that I could use return functions with $effect runes, which I somehow missed before! That came in handy with the fancy system I added to not entirely break the website if you leave during a stream. :)

For some reason, the page is UNBELIEVABLY slow to initially load on development mode, so that sucks… It works instantly on release though, so that’s great!
I added a few new messages to the main screen. Some backups too, one of which is visible below. It tells you instantly what profile you’re on.
I’ll consider varying that each time like most AI websites do, but I’ll make sure to keep it as small as possible.
I have a LOT to do on my Trello board still, which is ironic. The more work I do, the more issues I find! The board gets longer each devlog T_T

Somewhat interesting update:
I’m gonna add some docs (likely on Github, unless I feel inclined to code them!) in which there’ll be an error code section. I’m making my own error codes, specific to the website. :)

Currently got:
A1: user error (not logged in, corrupt data, etc.)
U1: unknown error
M1: unavailable model
P1: invalid prompt

I plan to maybe add profanity filtering to the prompt validity checker (which I’ve also yet to implement)!

I can also make a nice customisable theme across pages.

Exciting devlog, because now I can get back onto the FUN STUFF!!!
No more ‘why account no work T_T’ stuff!

Thanks for reading, happy coding!
