Devlog #5: Grid Scaling & Snack Logic Optimization What’s up, Hackers, We are back for devlog five! Now that the core system is up and running, I’ve been analyzing how the data handles actual savings scenarios. I found a couple of logical gaps in the tracking mechanics and went under the hood to clean up the code.Here is exactly what is live in the codebase right now:1. The “Zero-Week” Loop Fix The biggest logic update is inside the automated Snack Advice Engine. Previously, if a user was already on track to finish their goal quickly, the system would sometimes display a tip telling them they could save “0 weeks” by cutting back on snacks. That looked goofy.The Change: I added a structural check (weeksSaved > 0) to the condition. Now, advice boxes only trigger if cutting down on snacks actually makes a real, measurable difference to your timeline.2. Canvas Trajectory Mapping The HTML5 Canvas architecture is fully dialed in. Each tracking card renders a dedicated dynamic area chart (chart-${item.id}). It plots out your progress from “Now” directly to your target, filled with a clean semi-transparent sky-blue gradient (rgba(56, 189, 248, 0.1)).3. Clean Architecture Implementation the layout utilizes a structured form block (.box) for item creation that pipes data into a master fluid grid (.wishlist-container). For tracking progress, users have two straightforward actions per card:An input field coupled with a single standalone purple + Add Cash button for manual lump-sum injections.A green 📈 + Log Week button to advance the timeline by your fixed weekly pocket money savings rate.Now, if you do want to actually add that subtract feature to your code so you can fix typos when you write too much money, let me know! I will add it too.
