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 addresses a UI issue observed on small screens, particularly
during text searches involving nested nodes.
Implementing word-breaking for the improved display of script/category
titles and their documentation prevents content overflow. This change
ensures that both the header (including the node title and documentation
icon) and the documentation text stay fully visible without overflowing.
Additionally, this fix replaces ID-based styling (`#node`) with
class-based styling, using clear, descriptive names. This enhances CSS
and JavaScript reusability and maintainability.
This commit upgrades TypeScript to the latest version 5.3 and introduces
`verbatimModuleSyntax` in line with the official Vue guide
recommendatinos (vuejs/docs#2592).
By enforcing `import type` for type-only imports, this commit improves
code clarity and supports tooling optimization, ensuring imports are
only bundled when necessary for runtime.
Changes:
- Bump TypeScript to 5.3.3 across the project.
- Adjust import statements to utilize `import type` where applicable,
promoting cleaner and more efficient code.
This commit improves the user experience by adding smooth transitions
for expanding and collapsing tree node items and documentation sections.
The introduction of these animations makes the interface feel more
dynamic and responsive to user interactions.
Key changes:
- Implement a new `ExpandCollapseTransition` component to wrap UI
elements requiring expand/collapse animations.
- Utiliz the `ExpandCollapseTransition` in tree view nodes and
documentation sections to animate visibility changes.
- Refactor CSS to remove obsolete transition mixins, leveraging Vue's
transition system for consistency and maintainability.
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.

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:

- 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

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.

interface's flexibility in displaying content.
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 fixes a UI bug where the circle icon of the revertbutton was
unresponsive to clicks. The solution involves replacing the
pseudo-element (`:before`) with an actual HTML element, enabling direct
event binding.
Additional improvements include:
- Removal of redundant `z-index` properties to simplify click event
handling and reduce complexity.
- Programmatic toggle of `isChecked` on click, providing more controlled
and explicit behavior and avoiding issues with native checkbox
behavior, especially when overlaid on a pseudo-element.
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 addresses incorrect URL rendering within documentation text
by improving auto-linkified URL labels, handling `+` symbols as spaces,
enhancing readability of encoded path segments and manually updating
some of the documetation.
Key improvements:
- Parse `+` as whitespace in URLs for accurate script labeling.
- Interpret multiple whitespaces as single for robustness.
- Decode path segments for clearer links.
- Refactor markdown renderer.
- Expand unit tests for comprehensive coverage.
Documentation has been updated to fix inline URL references and improve
linkification across several scripts, ensuring more readable and
user-friendly content.
Affected files and documentation sections have been adjusted
accordingly, including script and category names for consistency and
clarity.

Styling of codeblocks:
- Uniform margins as other documentation elements.
- Add small margin for inline code-blocks.
- Use different background color for inline code-blocks.
- Introduce `inline-code` and `code-block` mixins for clarity in
styling.
Overflowing of codeblocks:
- Improve flex layout of the tree component to be handle overflowing
content and providing maximum available width. To be able to correctly
provide maximum available width in card content, card expansion layout
is changed so both close button and the content gets their full width.
- Other refactorings to support this:
- Introduce separate Vue component for checkboxes of nodes for better
separation of concerns and improved maintainability.
- Refactor `LeafTreeNode` to make it simpler, separating layout concerns
from other styling.
- `ScriptsTree.vue`: Prefer `<div>`s instead of `<span>`s as they
represent large content.
