Grapefruit

I improved how tasks are made, making the task overlay centred instead of to the side, changed “reasoning” into “goals” which is easier to understand and still useful, reduced the number of qualities and added some new ones similar to the old reasoning (e.g. ‘obligation’ & ‘reward’), came up with MUCH better sample tasks and fixed a small issue with the bottom bar!

I did a bunch of work on the settings and added a “theme”! (Different variations of the base colour - which is now changeable in the settings!)
I also used HSLuv instead of just HSL (which I tried before and thought it didn’t do much but now I realise it did help make everything nicer).
I also added an effect so when you press on buttons it decreases the border radius a bit!

And lastly I thought I’d fix some issues super quick due to the increased layout diversity from the settings but ended up spending much longer on them than expected, those being the jumpyness of the settings dropdowns (so I removed the animations and fixed it up a bit more and also fixed the flowlayout because it turns out everything is broken), fixed scrollbars inside other scrollbars, and probably more I forgot.

Tweaked the colours lots and I’m now quite happy with how it’s at!
Added auto generating colours for everything I didn’t before (the calendar, settings, importance and some buttons in overlays)
Saved the dark/light theme to a settings file
And fixed a bug with the confirm and move overlays being a strange fixed width!

Added dynamic colours! Don’t worry that it looks kinda bad right now, I had to learn UI design from scratch for this, and I will improve it soon.

Made all the colours (well, most of them for now) generate based on a base colour and added a light and dark theme!

I also made the Android navigation icons and the svgs change between light and dark properly.

I spent quite some time trying to implement HSLuv or HCT in the hopes it would improve the colours but ended up scrapping that due to many reasons, including too much extra stuff, wasn’t making much (or any) difference, and my HCT implementation was just so broken and I wasn’t bothered to try and fix it.

Also some parts are now extra broken, I’ll fix them soon too don’t worry! I had to devlog this in case I went over 10h by accident, hopefully will be resolved before the next one

Improved some UI layouts, clarified a sentence or two in the conversation, reordered the tasks page, made selecting the title in the task overlay hide the buttons (to make it easier to see), fixed some visual bugs (maybe?), improved some icons, changed ‘today’ to ‘starred’ (and made it not clear at the end of the day; I wanted to plan for the future) and last but not least I made the grey background for some of the overlays reach past the navigation AT LAST! So now the title bar doesn’t look off when the overlays are open!

Added an app icon and FINALLY got around to actually drawing the Grapefruit character! Also improved some parts of the conversation a bit more, improved the default tasks, improved the date importance calculations a smidge and fixed many tiny issues. It should now be DONE!

I thought I was done but turns out I forgot to add scrolling to the tasks list, so it would cause large issues if there were many tasks (or if the screen height was very low, as it does get on mobile when the keyboard is up)

Improved the “X weeks away” text (which was just wrong before) and added a today toggle and category button!

Did various small improvements, including: Many many bugfixes, rearranging the task and settings display to have buttons on the bottom (from user feedback), a help screen, a ‘move task to another category’ button and dialogue (which I cannot believe I forgot about until now) and added another purpose in the conversation for the user designated reason (so it actually gets shown sometimes)!

Added all sorts of cool things, including info in the settings page, bullet points to the text edits, changed the preset times and tasks, extra conversation features (failsafes and external functions), and improved the conversation some more (because it was fun)!

Finished the conversation! (It may change/get improved more later, but for now I’m happy with it!) I made many changes to some terrible phrasing choices I made previously (e.g. “But why won’t you do xyz? It’s super fun!” -> “You don’t have to do it if you don’t want to”), rewriting huge chunks of it and adding other huge chunks. (I hope you appreciate the dialogue, I’ve apparently spent 20 hours by now JUST on that, not even the code behind it)
Also changed times to use +...m as well as +...h and included a preset range of times which are more on the short side to incentavise shorter tasks.

Added buttons to insert new lines above/below, saving information to an external file automatically and trimming whitespace off of some things (a small convenience when on mobile)

Finalised the connection between the task engine and the conversation including adding variety, conversation suggestions knowing about the qualities and reasons, a significantly improved conversation (that’s almost done!!), a lot of conversation backend (including a custom parser for recursive synonym choices) and heaps more!

Spent pretty much the entire time working on the conversation choices and options (yes it’s that difficult). Also made some improvements to the backend (extra features making it easier/possible to do some things, fixed bugs). Still not done the conversation, will be another long stretch until I finish it but it’s nearly there!

Worked on the conversation, improving the quality of texts and options, and added some new options and features! Also added some cool mathy functions for determining task urgency/load!

Added the beginnings to the task importance system and implemented a cool task bottom text including progress, and also included that task progress in the task overlay popup at the bottom!

Implemented a bunch of small improvements and fixes to the calendar popup and date highlight!

Spent the whole time working on a date selector! Also added text about the due date, e.g. “was due yesterday”, “due next Monday (in 5 days)”, etc.

Implemented many extremely minor things brought up from user feedback, including: adding titles to the category and task list, using e.g. +2.5h instead of #E for counting time, improved the importance selection layout, ordering tasks, improving done task formatting (with tick and strikethrough) and other even more minor things!

Added a qualities screen to add qualities to tasks by clicking on the buttons and a lot of backend work to make everything run smoother and easier to code!

Added an importance slider, an info text and some minor things to the task overlay

Fixed a lot of bugs in the tasks area; including resizing issues, inability to scroll, and wrapping problems.

Added task groups and an add, rename, and delete task group button that do things! Deleting, naming collisions and other problems are also handled with dialogues! Also added a slightly better colour scheme

Added a basic scene!!

Dramatically improved the backend for the conversation, adding many new features!

Added a parser for conversation backend data and an options list and text box to display it in!

Added a bottom bar to the task input including some utility functions like move up and down, a sample highlight that can get modified with the + and - timer buttons and a scrollbar!

Added an item input field with a bottom bar with utilities in it!

Added more to the UI layout, including a settings (with accordian sections) and new tasks (currently empty) page!

Added the very basic interface! The reason it took so long was because I had zero idea how to compile anything and took way too long figuring that out. But it can compile for desktop or mobile now! (although desktop is only for testing)
