So for this one we've got a few bug fixes coupled with a menu redesign. This was triggered by some key input from one of our two stakeholders. The redesign was mostly headed up by her, I merely coded it up.

Much better than my "bare-minimum/good-enough" first version.
Features:

  • New menu bar UI with better search box
  • Started using aurelia-google-analytics to log traffic. Working with them to help it meet our needs a bit better. Made a couple pull requests and we'll see what happens
  • Reformatting dates. Using MomentJS now
  • Backend work to dashboard to track a logged in user. Makes commenting easier for us and people will know it's us because we'll be the only ones with a profile picture next to our comments! No more pretending to be us!
  • Related to the last one, you can now change the post author!
  • Changed initial loading font to reduct number of fonts loaded.

Fixes:

  • Align profile picture top with post picture top
  • CSS cleanup. Constant struggle.
  • Now shows up a bit better when shared on Facebook. Curse you OpenGraph!
  • Gzipping all Flask traffic, because that wasn't happening already.
