This commit refactors SCSS to resolve deprecation warnings related to
mixed declaration after nested rules.
Sass is changing how it processes declarations that appear after nested
rules to align with CSS standards. Previously, Sass would hoist
declarations to avoid duplicating selectors, However, this behavior will
soon change to make declarations apply in the order they appear, as per
CSS standards.
This commit addresses an issue in Chromium on Linux and Windows where
the appearance of a vertical scrollbar causes unexpected horizontal
layout shifts. This behavior typically occurs when the window is
resized, a card is opened or a script is selected, resulting in content
being pushed to the left.
The solution implemented involves using `scrollbar-gutter: stable` to
ensure space is always allocated for the scrollbar, thus preventing any
shift in the page layout. This fix primarily affects Chromium-based
browsers on Linux and Windows. It has no impact on Firefox on any
platform, or any browser on macOS (including Chromium). Because these
render the scrollbar as an overlay, and do not suffer from this issue.
Steps to reproduce the issue using Chromium browser on Linux/Windows:
1. Open the app with a height large enough where a vertical scrollbar is
not visible.
2. Resize the window to a height that triggers a vertical scrollbar.
3. Notice the layout shift as the body content moves to the right.
Changes:
- Add a CSS mixin to handle scrollbar gutter allocation with a fallback.
- Add support for modal dialog background lock to handle
`scrollbar-gutter: stable;` in calculations to avoid layout shift when
a modal is open.
- Add E2E test to avoid regression.
- Update DevToolkit to accommodate new scrollbar spacing.
This commit improves UI consistency. It also improves maintainability by
removing "magic values" in favor of standardized spacing throughout the
application.
- Adjust spacing variables to match the convention.
- Add `_spacing.scss` to define a centralized set of spacing variables, both
absolute and relative, to standardize the spacing throughout the application.
This new approach ensures a consistent spacing logic across all components and
layouts, facilitating easier maintenance and scalability of the styling codebase.
- Update various SCSS styles to utilize the new spacing variables. This change
harmonizes the spacing across different parts of the application, aligning with
the new design system's principles.
- Slightly adjust existing padding/margin/gaps for better consistency.
Other supporting changes per component:
- RatingCircle: Update style names to match convention and simplify
hacky way to inject circle width value through CSS variables. Add
tests for the new behavior and refactor existing tests for easier
extensibility.
- TheFooter: Add small gap when footer items wrap.
- HiearchicalTreeNode: Refactor variables to separate caret size clearly
from padding applied.
- App: Make padding responsive as initial behavior of v0.13.0 before
5d940b57ef.
- ModalDialog: Use responsive absolute values instead of percentage.
- HorizontalResizeSlider:
- Use `v-bind` instead of hacky way to inject SCSS values through variables.
- Remove `verticalMargin` property to simplify its styling.
- Move `src/presentation/assets/styles/components/_card.scss` closer to
components that it styles. Update structure documentation.
The centralization of spacing definitions will aid in future design
adjustments, ensuring that updates to spacing can be made swiftly and
uniformly across the application. It's a step towards a more maintainable
and scalable frontend architecture.
This commit fixes inconsistent tooltip styling by setting the font
explicitly on the tooltip container to ensure uniform tooltip fonts.
As tooltip is rendered inside the parent elements' DOM, styling parent
element's font was also styling the font's font due to style
propogation, but setting fonts explicitly on tooltip ensure this does
not happen.
This commit centralizes the styling of key UI elements across the
project to ensure:
- Consistent look and feel.
- Enhanced code reusability.
- Simpified maintenance, improving development speed.
It establishes a uniform foundation that can be leveraged across
different parts of the project, even enabling the styling to be shared
across different websites (supporting issue #49).
Key changes:
- Apply the following shared styles globally:
* Styling of code, blockquotes, superscripts, horizontal rules and
anchors.
* Vertical and horizontal spacing.
- Segregate base styling into dedicated SCSS files for clearer structure
and increased maintainability.
- Remove custom styling from affected components, enabling global style
reuse for visual uniformity, reduced redundancy, and enhanced
semantics.
Other supporting changes:
- Rename `globals.scss` to `base.scss` for better clarity.
- Add `.editorconfig` for `.scss` files to ensure consistent whitespace
usage.
- Remove `2` file from the project root, that was included in the source
code by mistake.
- Remove unused font-face imports
Key changes:
- Change main font to Roboto Slab for enhanced readability.
- Change code font to 'Source Code Pro' for consistent monospace code
rendering.
- Import and set code font explicitly for uniform appearance across
platforms.
- Update Slabo 27px (logo font) version from v6 to v14.
- Update Yesteryear (cursive font) version from v8 to v18.
- Drop support for historic browser-specific formats, retaining only
WOFF2 for modern and TTF for legacy browsers.
- Use `font-display: swap` to improve perceived load times and minimize
layout shifts.
Supporting changes:
- Simplify font-weight usage to 'normal' and 'bold' for consistency.
- Adjust inline code padding for better scalability and prevent
overflow.
- Introduce `$font-main` as main font variable.
- Remove specification of main font as it's best practice to rely on the
default font defined on `body` style.
- Specify font in code area to ensure it uses the code font consistently
as the rest of the application.
- Remove local font search through `local` to simplify the import logic
and prioritize consistency over performance.
- Import bold font explicitly (`font-weight: 700`) for smooth and
consistent rendering.
- Move `font-family` definitions to `_typography.scss` to better adhere
to the common standards and conventions.
- Refactor font variables to have `font-family-` prefix instead of
`font-` to improve clarity and differentiation between `font-size`
variables.
- Rename 'artistic' font to 'cursive' for preciseness and clarity.
- Use smaller font sizes to match the new main font size, as Roboto Slab
is relatively larger.
- Add missing fallbacks for serif fonts to improve fault tolerance.
- Change padding slightly on toggle switch for revert buttons to align
well with new main font and its sizing.
This commit introduces 'Revert: None - Selected' toggle, enabling users
to revert all reversible scripts with a single action, improving user
safety and control over script effects.
This feature addresses user-reported concerns about the ease of
reverting script changes. This feature should enhance the user experience
by streamlining the revert process along with providing essential
information about script reversibility.
Key changes:
- Add buttons to revert all selected scripts or setting all selected
scripts to non-revert state.
- Add tooltips with detailed explanations about consequences of
modifying revert states, includinginformation about irreversible
script changes.
Supporting changes:
- Align items on top menu vertically for better visual consistency.
- Rename `SelectionType` to `RecommendationStatusType` for more clarity.
- Rename `IReverter` to `Reverter` to move away from `I` prefix
convention.
- The `.script` CSS class was duplicated in `TheScriptsView.vue` and
`TheScriptsArea.vue`, leading to style collisions in the development
environment. The class has been renamed to component-specific classes
to avoid such issues in the future.
This commit improves markdown rendering to convert reference labels
(e.g., `[1]`) to superscripts, improving document readability without
cluttering the text. This improvement applies documentation of all
scripts and categories.
Changes:
- Implement superscript conversion for reference labels within markdown
content, ensuring a cleaner presentation of textual references.
- Enable HTML content within markdown, necessary for inserting `<sup>`
elements due to limitations in `markdown-it`, see
markdown-it/markdown-it#999 for details.
- Refactor markdown rendering process for improved testability and
adherence to the Single Responsibility Principle.
- Create `_typography.scss` with font size definitions, facilitating
better control over text presentation.
- Adjust external URL indicator icon sizing for consistency, aligning
images with the top of the text to maintain a uniform appearence.
- Use normal font-size explicitly for documentation text to ensure
consistency.
- Remove text size specification in `markdown-styles` mixin, using `1em`
for spacing to simplify styling.
- Rename font sizing variables for clarity, distinguishing between
absolute and relative units.
- Change `font-size-relative-smaller` to be `80%`, browser default for
`font-size: smaller;` CSS style and use it with `<sup>` elements.
- Improve the logic for converting plain URLs to hyperlinks, removing
trailing whitespace for cleaner link generation.
- Fix plain URL to hyperlink (autolinking) logic removing trailing
whitespace from the original markdown content. This was revealed by
tests after separating its logic.
- Increase test coverage with more tests.
- Add types for `markdown-it` through `@types/markdown-it` package for
better editor support and maintainability.
- Simplify implementation of adding custom anchor attributes in
`markdown-it` using latest documentation.
This commit standardizes the visual styling of inline code and code
blocks, ensuring consistency across macOS, Android, Linux and Windows
platforms.
The discrepancies observed in font rendering on macOS, which caused the
inline code font to appear larger, have been addressed. This behavior
was only observed on macOS using different browsers such as Firefox,
Safari, Chromium-based browsers including Electron.
Key changes:
- Standardize font size relative to the parent element.
- Remove font-weight for uniformity, especially when the specific weight
is not included with the application.
- Add a consistent background color to inline codes, aligning their look
with code blocks.
- Refactor code styling into a separate SCSS file for improved
modularity and maintainability.
- Update the documentation to reflect these visual design choices for
privacy.sexy's UI.
These changes enhance the overall user experience by providing a
consistent look and feel for code elements within the UI, regardless of
the user's platform or browser.
This commit standardizes font sizes across components for a uniform
look. The icon sizes, font weights and line heights are also adjusted
accordingly for better standardization and simplicity.
- Introduce variables for standard font sizes, enhancing
maintainability.
- Remove explicit pixel values, replaced with scalable units based on
root size.
- Remove workaround for line-height adoptation of bigger font-size.
- Use consistent small font-size for the code area.
- Adjust checkbox tick to scale with font size.
- Refine tooltip documentation with clearer information.
- Introduce privacy ranking indicator for intuitive user guidance.
- Adopt a consistent format throughout documentation.
- Switch from emojis to icons to maintain visual uniformity.
This commit fixes layout shifts experienced in macOS Safari when
hovering over top menu items. Instead of making text bold — which was
causing layout shifts — the hover effect now changes the text color.
This ensures a consistent UI across different browsers and platforms.
Additionally, this commit fixes the styling of the privacy button
located in the bottom right corner. Previously styled as an `<a>`
element, it is now correctly represented as a `<button>`.
Furthermore, the commit enhances HTML conformity and accessibility by
correctly using `<button>` and `<a>` tags instead of relying on click
interactions on `<span>` elements.
This commit introduces `FlatButton` Vue component and a new
`flat-button` mixin. These centralize button usage and link styles,
aligning the hover/touch reactions of buttons across the application,
thereby creating a more consistent user interface.
This commit resolves issues with the touch highlight behavior on tree
nodes in touch-enabled Chromium browsers (such as Google Chrome).
The fix addresses two issues:
1. Dual color transition issue during tapping actions on tree nodes.
2. Not highlighting full visible width of the node on keyboard focus.
Other changes include:
- Create `InteractableNode.vue` to centralize click styling and logic.
- Remove redundant click/hover/touch styling from `LeafTreeNode.vue` and
`HierarchicalTreeNode.vue`.
This commit addresses issues with the tree view not fully utilizing the
available width (appearing squeezed on the left) on bigger screens, and
inconsistent padding during searches.
The changes centralize padding and script tree rendering logic to
enforce consistency and prevent regression.
Changes:
- Fix tree view width utilization.
- Refactor SCSS variables for better IDE support.
- Unify padding and tree background color logic for consistent padding
and coloring around the tree component.
- Fix no padding around the tree in tree view.
- Centralize color SCSS variable for script background for consistent
application theming.
This commit fixes layout shifts that occur on card list part of the page
when the page is initially loaded.
- Resolve issue where card list starts with minimal width, leading
to jumps in UI until correct width is calculated on medium and
big screens.
- Dispose of existing `ResizeObserver` properly before creating a new
one. This prevents leaks and incorrect width calculations if
`containerElement` changes.
- Throttle resize events to minimize width/height calculation changes,
enhancing performance and reducing the chances for layout shifts.
Supporting CI/CD improvements:
- Enable artifact upload in CI/CD even if E2E tests fail.
- Distinguish uploaded artifacts by operating system for clarity.
- Migrate from "Vue 2.X" to "Vue 3.X"
- Migrate from "Vue Test Utils v1" to "Vue Test Utils v2"
Changes in detail:
- Change `inserted` to `mounted`.
- Change `::v-deep` to `:deep`.
- Change to Vue 3.0 `v-modal` syntax.
- Remove old Vue 2.0 transition name, keep the ones for Vue 3.0.
- Use new global mounting API `createApp`.
- Change `destroy` to `unmount`.
- Bootstrapping:
- Move `provide`s for global dependencies to a bootsrapper from
`App.vue`.
- Remove `productionTip` setting (not in Vue 3).
- Change `IVueBootstrapper` for simplicity and Vue 3 compatible API.
- Add missing tests.
- Remove `.text` access on `VNode` as it's now internal API of Vue.
- Import `CSSProperties` from `vue` instead of `jsx` package.
- Shims:
- Remove unused `shims-tsx.d.ts`.
- Remove `shims-vue.d.ts` that's missing in quickstart template.
- Unit tests:
- Remove old typing workaround for mounting components.
- Rename `propsData` to `props`.
- Remove unneeded `any` cast workarounds.
- Move stubs and `provide`s under `global` object.
Other changes:
- Add `dmg-license` dependency explicitly due to failing electron builds
on macOS (electron-userland/electron-builder#6520,
electron-userland/electron-builder#6489). This was a side-effect of
updating dependencies for this commit.
- Introduce a new UI component for tooltips.
- Fix tooltip arrow misalignment issues in code download/execution
instructions dialogs.
Reasons for dropping `v-tooltip` dependency:
- Lack of support for Vue 3.0, which blocks migration to Vue 3.0 (see
#230).
- Inability to render HTML content that's required for privacy.sexy.
- Inefficient, adding an extra 162.48 KB to the production bundle for
web distribution (tested using `npm run build -- --mode production`).
Advantages of adopting `floating-ui` (Floating UI):
- Compatibility across multiple Vue versions including 2.0, 2.7, and 3.0.
- Reduced boilerplate resulting in cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Efficient position recalculations without reinventing the wheel.
Key highlights:
- Written from scratch to cater specifically to privacy.sexy's
needs and requirements.
- The visual look mimics the previous component with minimal changes,
but its internal code is completely rewritten.
- Lays groundwork for future functionalities like the "expand all"
button a flat view mode as discussed in #158.
- Facilitates the transition to Vue 3 by omitting the Vue 2.0 dependent
`liquour-tree` as part of #230.
Improvements and features:
- Caching for quicker node queries.
- Gradual rendering of nodes that introduces a noticable boost in
performance, particularly during search/filtering.
- `TreeView` solely governs the check states of branch nodes.
Changes:
- Keyboard interactions now alter the background color to highlight the
focused item. Previously, it was changing the color of the text.
- Better state management with clear separation of concerns:
- `TreeView` exclusively manages indeterminate states.
- `TreeView` solely governs the check states of branch nodes.
- Introduce transaction pattern to update state in batches to minimize
amount of events handled.
- Improve keyboard focus, style background instead of foreground. Use
hover/touch color on keyboard focus.
- `SelectableTree` has been removed. Instead, `TreeView` is now directly
integrated with `ScriptsTree`.
- `ScriptsTree` has been refactored to incorporate hooks for clearer
code and separation of duties.
- Adopt Vue-idiomatic bindings instead of keeping a reference of the
tree component.
- Simplify and change filter event management.
- Abandon global styles in favor of class-scoped styles.
- Use global mixins with descriptive names to clarify indended
functionality.
This commit changes the web application's build, transpilation and
minification process from Vue CLI to Vite. This shift paves the way for
a full migration to Vite as the primary build tool (#230).
Configuration changes:
- `.vscode/extensions.json`: Update recommended plugins, replacing
unmaintained ones with official recommendations.
- Legacy browser support:
- Use `@vitejs/plugin-legacy` to transpile for older browsers.
- Remove `core-js` dependency and `babel.config.cjs` configuration as
they're now handled by the legacy plugin.
- Delete `@babel/preset-typescript` and `@babel/preset-typescript`
dependencies as legacy plugin handles babel dependencies by default.
- Add `terser` dependency that's used by the legacy plugin for
minification, as per Vite's official documentation.
- `tsconfig.json`:
- Remove obsolete `webpack-env` types.
- Add `"resolveJsonModule": true` to be able to read JSON files in
right way.
- Use correct casing as configuration values.
- Simplify `lib` to align with Vite and Vue starter configuration.
- Add `"skipLibCheck": true` as `npm run build` now runs `tsc` which
fails on inconsistent typings inside `node_modules` due to npm's
weak dependency resoultion.
- PostCSS:
- Add `autoprefixer` as dependency, no longer installed by Vue CLI.
- Epxlicitly added `postcss` as dependency to anticipate potential
peer dependency changes.
- Remove related `@vue/cli` dependencies.
- Remove `sass-loader` as Vite has native CSS preprocessing support.
- Run integration tests with `jsdom` environment so `window` object can
be used.
Client-side changes:
- Abstract build tool specific environment variable population.
Environment variables were previously populated by Vue CLI and now by
Vite but not having an abstraction caused issues. This abstraction
solves build errors and allows easier future migrations and testing.
- Change Vue CLI-specific `~@` aliases to `@` to be able to compile with
Vite.
- Update types in LiquorTree to satisfy `tsc`.
- Remove Vue CLI-specific workaround from `src/presentation/main.ts`.
Restructuring:
- Move `public/` to `presentation/` to align with the layered structure,
which was not possible with Vue CLI.
- Move `index.html` to web root instead of having it inside `public/` to
align with official recommended structure.
- Move logic shared by both integration and unit tests to
`tests/shared`.
- Move logo creation script to `scripts/` and its npm command to include
`build` to align with rest of the structure.
Introduce a brand new lightweight and efficient modal component. It is
designed to be visually similar to the previous one to not introduce a
change in feel of the application in a patch release, but behind the
scenes it features:
- Enhanced application speed and reduced bundle size.
- New flexbox-driven layout, eliminating JS calculations.
- Composition API ready for Vue 3.0 #230.
Other changes:
- Adopt idiomatic Vue via `v-modal` binding.
- Add unit tests for both the modal and dialog.
- Remove `vue-js-modal` dependency in favor of the new implementation.
- Adjust modal shadow color to better match theme.
- Add `@vue/test-utils` for unit testing.
Remove uppercase text transformation from node titles (script and
categories) and "no results found" text when searching. It increases the
readability giving it a clean look.
Rework documentation URLs as inline markdown.
Redesign documentations with markdown text.
Redesign way to document scripts/categories and present the
documentation.
Documentation is showed in an expandable box instead of tooltip. This is
to allow writing longer documentation (tooltips are meant to be used for
short text) and have better experience on mobile.
If a node (script/category) has documentation it's now shown with single
information icon (ℹ) aligned to right.
Add support for rendering documentation as markdown. It automatically
converts plain URLs to URLs with display names (e.g.
https://docs.microsoft.com/..) will be rendered automatically like
"docs.microsoft.com - Windows 11 Privacy...".
Disable selecting clickables as text. Selecting buttons leads to
unintended selection. This is seen when touching on clickables using
mobile devices.
Prevent blue highlight when touching on clickables. This is seen on
mobile webkit browsers. It looks ugly and the visual clue provided is
not needed beacuse all clickables on mobile already have visual clues.
This commit improves mobile support. `:hover` CSS selector is not mobile
friendly because there is typically no mouse support on mobile. This
commit make hover behavior to become active during touch on mobile.
`:hover` selector is emulated on mobile devices. But this emulated
behavior is not desired. When emulated, the CSS style gets attached when
starting touching but does not get removed after stopping touching. This
sticky behavior is undesired.
This commit solve this issue by using Saas mixing that uses `:active`
selector instead of `:hover` when `:hover` is not really supported but
emulated.
- Add more documentation.
- Use `main.scss` instead of importing components individually. This
improves productivity without compilation errors due to missing
imports and allows for easier future file/folder changes and
refactorings inside `./styles`.
- Use partials with underscored naming. Because it documents that the
files should not be individually imported.
- Introduce `third-party-extensions` folder to group styles that
overwrites third party components.
- Refactor variable names from generic to specific.
- Use Sass modules (`@use` and `@forward`) over depreciated `@import`
syntax.
- Separate font assets from Sass files (`styles/`). Create `assets/`
folder that will contain both.
- Create `_globals.css` for global styling of common element instead of
using `App.vue`.
