Library empty state ("Your icebox")
- Replace the single "Make your first deck" button with two quick-action
cards: "Create interactive test" (primary, ice-gradient icon + subtle
accent border) and "Help me with my homework" (glass card, sparkles
icon). Stacked on phones, side by side from 640px up; both >=44px tall.
/create
- Replace the "Got homework instead of notes?" banner with a two-card mode
switcher above "1. Add your notes": "Study Deck & Quizzes" (the current
view — aria-current, accent tint, ice icon) and "Homework Solver" (a
shortcut to /homework). Icon-on-top tiles on phones, inline rows from
640px up; glass tokens + backdrop blur in both themes.
Strings
- New keys in both dictionaries: emptyStateCreateDeck, emptyStateHomework,
actionStudyDeck, actionHomework. Drop the now-unused homework.entry and
library.makeFirst keys.
Drive-by AA fix (light mode, /create only)
- The "New folder" dashed button and the difficulty blurbs move from
frost-500 to frost-600 (4.0:1 -> ~6:1). Dark mode is unchanged.
Service worker: freezmo-v8.
Verified: redesign suite 32/32 (stacked/side-by-side layouts, 360/390/1280,
dark+light, en+cs, >=44px targets, both cards navigate, no overflow, axe
contrast), mobile 49/49, i18n 27/27, desktop regression 73/73. Lint + build
clean.
Phones (<=639px) only for layout/gestures; the theme-level fixes apply
everywhere, as they are token/design changes.
Settings sheet
- Swipe-to-dismiss reusing the InstallSheet gesture: the sheet follows the
finger, closes past ~90px or on a fast flick, snaps back otherwise. Drag
starts only from the handle/header and only while the body is scrolled to
the top. Backdrop tap still closes.
- Fixed header + scrollable body: pb-safe + spacer, so nothing is clipped;
a scroll cue (chevron) fades in while more content is below and out at
the end.
- Show/Save stack under the field at 44px on phones; close, Test connection
and Remove key are 44px too. Remove key is now a rose destructive action
with a confirmation that the full-screen key setup comes back.
- API key note split into a short privacy line plus a collapsible
'Using the local daemon?' tip (OLLAMA_AUTH=local / .env.local / signin).
- Fixed the missing space in the English tip ('ollama signin instead.').
- Health: kept the auto-check and banner; added a loading row and a
'Checked just now' / 'Checked at HH:MM' freshness label (also for errors).
Ice scene / readability
- Verified the orbs were never above content (fixed z-index:-1 layer,
pointer-events:none); they were just shining through the glass. Phones get
lower blob/orb opacity and orbs tucked to the edges; the bottom-right orb
is moved out from under the tab bar and the tab bar paints a more opaque
surface so its labels hold contrast.
Contrast / themes
- Dark --text-subtle raised to #9db1d0 (8.6:1 page, 7.2:1 glass); helper
text now uses the tokens.
- Disabled buttons are a visible muted chip (.btn-disabled) instead of a
40%-opacity ghost.
- One ice primary gradient in both themes; danger/success now actually show
their colour (bg-none strips the primary background-image that used to
paint over !bg-rose-600).
- Light mode: cool card rims instead of white-on-white, stronger shadow.
Redundancy / touch
- Removed only the header gear; the hamburger drawer (folders, Settings,
theme) and the tab-bar Settings stay.
- Theme toggle is a bordered chip with an action aria-label (drawer row too).
- Empty library hides the folder pills, demotes Import to a quiet link and
keeps a single primary CTA. 44px targets for nav rows, segmented control
and folder pills on phones.
- Fixed a pre-existing 16px horizontal overflow (header -mx-4 vs a
padding-less parent) and let info values wrap instead of truncating.
Verified: mobile suite 47/47 (EN+CS, 360/390px), pixel-sampled contrast
audit 0 runs below WCAG AA (8 runs, both themes/locales; axe marks the glass
'incomplete'), i18n 27/27, desktop regression 72/72, lint + build clean.
Service worker cache bumped to freezmo-v5.
English stays the default; Czech is a full translation. Only the app chrome
is translated - notes and generated decks keep their own language, which is a
core feature, not a setting.
i18n
- lib/i18n-dict.ts: flat en/cs dictionaries (441 keys each), translate() and
translatePlural() with real Czech plural rules (1 sada / 2-4 sady / 5+ sad).
English is the default and the fallback for a missing key.
- lib/i18n.ts: browser store (freezmo.locale.v1), useI18n() hook, and the
x-freezmo-locale header. The hook's t/plural are bound to the locale React
is rendering with, so the first client render matches the server HTML and
then re-renders in the stored language; module-level t is only for event
handlers and non-React helpers.
- <html lang> follows the choice (inline script + setLocale).
UI
- Settings -> Language segmented control (English / Cestina), plus an EN/CS
button on the key gate for first run.
- Every screen translated: sidebar, header, tab bar, library, deck cards,
folder bar, create flow, all seven activities, study chrome, results,
settings + health panel, API-key gate and help, install sheet, offline and
the deck-not-found page.
- Plural-aware counts everywhere (decks, folders, activities, runs, photos,
documents, pages, words, wrong attempts).
Server
- API routes and guards (generate, grade, health, http-guard, rate-limit,
ollama error mapping) answer in the request's language, so error cards and
the health panel never fall back to English mid-sentence.
Fixes
- A hydration mismatch when a non-default locale was stored silently dropped
the .dark class after hydration; render-time t() is now bound to the
hook's locale (UploadScreen.describeExtraction, ResultsScreen.answerFor,
DeckCard's folder fallback).
- Bumped the service worker cache to freezmo-v4 for this deploy.
Tests: i18n 27/27 (gate toggle, persistence, html lang, Czech plurals,
settings switch) and a rebuilt regression suite 72/72 (English default,
library, create, all 7 activity types, results, settings, install sheet,
offline, PWA, security, Czech smoke).
Rebuilds the look around the spec: an ice scene, one shared glass
recipe, icy accents and glass on every large surface. Visual only —
layout, behaviour, copy and functionality are untouched.
Background
- .ice-scene: fixed, z-index -1, pointer-events none. Navy base
(#070b16 to #0c1426) in dark, pale (#f4f9ff to #e6f1fb) in light,
four drifting glacier blobs (#38bdf8/#60a5fa/#818cf8, 30-60s
transform-only loops), five glossy ice orbs (40-220px radial
gradients with a highlight at 30% 25% and a blue shadow) placed so the
glass blurs them, and an SVG feTurbulence grain at 4-5%.
- prefers-reduced-motion stops the drift; phones get two blobs and two
orbs fewer.
Glass
- One shared recipe (.glass-panel, .card, .sidebar-surface,
.study-chrome, .tabbar, .glass, .gate-card): rgba(255,255,255,.06)
dark / .55 light, blur(24px) saturate(140%) (16px on phones), a bright
1px rim, an inset top highlight and a blue-tinted outer shadow.
- Nested glass (chips, inputs, secondary buttons) is more opaque and
never adds a second blur layer. @supports fallback for no
backdrop-filter. Radii: 24-28px cards/sheets, 14px inputs/buttons,
pills for chips. Cards hover brighter + cyan rim + 2px lift, 180ms.
Colour and type
- Accent is glacier cyan (#38bdf8) to ice blue (#0ea5e9); progress bars
and selected states use the gradient; the active sidebar item is a
frosted highlight with a cyan rim.
- Primary CTA: icy gradient — white to #bfe3ff with ink text in dark,
deep blue in light (biased so the label sits on the darker half and
keeps 5.6:1).
- Leftover slate/black greys replaced with navy-tinted frost tokens.
- Headings are semibold with tighter tracking.
Screens
- Dashboard: the sidebar is one tall inset rounded glass panel; deck
cards are glass.
- Gate: one centred glass card over the scene, orbs visible behind it.
- Sheets/modals: glass over the dimmed, lightly blurred backdrop.
- Study view: question card more opaque (.glass-solid); top bar and
pager are slim glass pills.
Perf: measured on a phone viewport with 4x CPU throttling. The animated
blobs' filter: blur() was the whole cost (150ms vs 33ms per frame), so
they are soft radial gradients with no filter now; idle 60fps, ~17ms
median while scrolling.
Tests updated for the new tokens: contrast 18/18 AA, deck chrome 15/15,
key gate 49/49, install sheet 64/64, deck fixes 15/15, retry 14/14,
zoom 6/6, final ux 12/12, security 8/8, pwa 16/16.
Layout (desktop / lg+ only):
- 40px top padding above the page title.
- Deck grid uses minmax(320px, 1fr), so two cards fill the content width
and share a right edge with the header (same max-width container).
- Group headings only render once real folders exist; with none, a single
quiet "All decks" label replaces "Unorganized".
- Import JSON becomes a plain text button (mobile keeps the pill).
Deck cards (desktop):
- The whole card is a link; Study is a compact secondary button instead
of a full-width solid pill.
- The ... control is a 32px ghost button with a real ellipsis icon,
aligned to the title's centre.
- Meta line always shows the same fields (activities · runs / Not played
yet); the score is a separate quiet "Best 53%" stat.
- 12px rhythm between title/meta/tags/summary, 16px before the actions.
- Hover: lighter surface, stronger border, soft shadow and a 2px lift in
light mode (pointer devices only, so touch has no sticky hover).
Sidebar (desktop rail):
- All decks + Unorganized are views above the FOLDERS label; only
user-created folders sit under it.
- Count only on All decks. The mobile drawer is unchanged.
Theme:
- Dark: sidebar is a step darker (#181818 to #141414 vs #212121 page).
- Light: cards get a slightly stronger border (#e2e2e2) and a soft
shadow; the sidebar divider and edge shadow are stronger too.
- Medium difficulty darkened to #7a5300 (6.2:1 on the light chip).
Mobile is untouched: layout changes are behind lg: (or the desktop prop);
theme tweaks are shared tokens.
Verified: key-gate 49/49, install sheet 64/64, retry 14/14, zoom 6/6,
deck chrome 15/15, deck fixes 15/15, final ux 12/12, contrast 20/20,
security 8/8, pwa 16/16.
In user-key mode a browser with no stored Ollama key now gets a polished
gate instead of the app shell: one masked input with a show/hide toggle,
a single Continue button, inline validation errors, and a "?" help sheet
with the steps to a free key.
- Validates the draft key through /api/health (real 1-token probe) before
saving; invalid-key and network failures read differently.
- Key still lives only in this browser's localStorage; nothing server-side.
- Gate wraps /, /create and deck study; server-key and local-daemon modes
skip it; removing the key in Settings brings it back.
- Removes the now-redundant dashboard/create API-key banner.
- Monochrome corner glows (dark near-black / light near-white), 24px card,
48px field and button, gentle fade/slide-in, reduced-motion aware.
- Help modal: centred dialog on desktop, bottom sheet on mobile, closes via
X, Escape or backdrop.
- README and browser suites updated (34 gate checks, 15 key-flow checks,
12 shipped-default checks; ui/folders/docs/pwa/security/contrast green).
Next.js 15 app that turns photos, PDFs, DOCX/PPTX and text into a swipeable
feed of AI-generated activities (flashcards, multiple choice, true/false,
fill-in-the-blank, matching, ordering, short answer) using the user's own
Ollama models.
Highlights:
- All AI calls run in server route handlers; the browser never talks to Ollama.
- Bring-your-own-key mode (default): the key lives only in the browser and is
sent per-request; server, local-daemon and shared-key modes also supported.
- Client-side document extraction (pdf.js, mammoth, jszip) with scanned-PDF
page rendering for the vision model; notes stay in their original language.
- ChatGPT-style shell: collapsible sidebar / mobile drawer, neutral token-based
light + dark themes, folder organisation, PWA (manifest, SW, offline page).
- Strict JSON validation with zod + auto-repair, rate limiting, and request
guards (cross-origin, body-size, API-key sanitising).
- setup.sh bootstraps deps, .env.local and a production build.
Gitignore excludes .env*, the generated pdf.js worker and local scratch files.
