Obscure - Devlog 4

Making it feel better

This update was mostly about making Obscure nicer to actually use.

I added a custom search engine dropdown that matches the current theme, along with controls for the background box and text length. The dropdown also got a few fixes after I found some problems with it not closing properly and text becoming hard to read.

Small details

The favicon now changes with the selected theme, so even the browser tab matches the page.

I also added local caching for the APOD response, so the same day’s image doesn’t need to be fetched again every time the page is opened.

What now

I am probably going to work on my other projects unless I need to finish off tasks here. One glaringly obvious update I need to do is to update the weather API. Also the logging I made in the console straight up doxxes the api keys.
