BetterStandby

Added a bunch more stuff!
I implemented the other pages, added a ‘customisation’ page (settings) where the user can change the styling and screen, and added a bunch more improvements across pages.
This isn’t all I added, but I’m trying to keep the devlog short to not be boring.

Plans:

Fix some things with Safari, fix the location fetching for weather data, and revamp the UI for the customisation page.
Also add tons more screens and animations (I still haven’t! XD).

I also need to fix a bug where the dark mode is somewhat inconsistent.
Thanks for reading, happy coding!

I added tons of cool stuff! I modified and improved the ‘intro’ experience, adding styling pages, alongside a tutorial page for customisation!

I also added a system for styling, which looks really nice IMHO! I’d love to hear your feedback on it.

I very slightly modified the icons on the first page, but not significantly aside from adding the actual views, rather than placeholders.

I added an image of the final page showing the user how to enter the customisation menu, although I plan to modify that a LOT! XD

After you click on that, it takes you to the main home page, where I added a CSS-based system protecting against screen burn! (I chose CSS because it’s more reliable against memory leaks and animations are widely supported with very little overhead! :D)

There’s a LOT I plan to add still! I want to make the customisation menu, massively improve the UI, and add tons of nice animations and details (like I said I’d do in the previous entry)

If you’re interested, I’m using a Trello board to keep track of things! I find it really helpful to organise everything into an ‘ideas’, ‘to-do’, ‘improve’ and ‘done’. :D

Thanks for reading my (probably excessively long) devlog! Happy hacking! :)

Hey! Excited to make my first devlog! I worked for a few untracked hours on the UI in Figma. I also plotted a nice intro/disclaimer message for the user about screen burn. I’m really happy with the intro page, although I plan to modify the customisation page. :)

After that I started coding! I’ve managed to get a working version of the UI for the first two screens, which are both visible below.
I’ve added some basic animations, but plan to go quite big on the nice zoom-ey ones for the buttons and stuff, in case anyone (like the people testing!) use a PC. :D

Thanks for reading the devlog! Have fun. :D
