A manifest with a 192, a 512 and a maskable icon, and a hand-written service
worker built beside the app by a small vite plugin: it keeps index.html, the
logo, the entry with its imports and the latin fonts, keeps each hashed asset
once fetched, asks the server for pages first and answers from the cache when
it is down, and never touches /api. The CSP names worker-src and manifest-src.
The share target posts to /share, which the worker catches: the text waits in
a cache and becomes a scratchpad note once someone is logged in, with the
drawer down on it. On a touch screen one guard entry in the history makes back
let go of one thing at a time — a prompt, the line, a sheet, the drawer, the
editor, a tile, then a folder up — and leave only at a space's root. The bar
and the band grow by the safe-area insets. The login no longer says the server
is unreachable once it answers again with the session gone.
A `!` now means force or everything and nothing else (`:w!`, `:search!`,
`:export!`, `:logout!`). A command that did a second thing behind its bang
takes a word for it instead: `:space new|name|rm`, `:list name|rm`,
`:task [add]|edit`, `:upload seal`, `:import zip [/]`. `:card` while reading
a document makes a card about it, so `:card!` is gone.
Merged: `:export` downloads what has focus, a file as it is or a document as
markdown (`:download` folded in); `:share [off|new]` replaces `:unshare` and
`:link`, and the list's `s` and `y` give way to it and the info sheet;
`:noh` replaces `:clear`; `:vault [unlock|lock|passwd]` replaces `:unlock`,
`:lock` and `:passwd`; Esc in the list puts down what `m` picked up before it
closes the document, replacing `:unmark`.
The old spellings run as their new lines for one release through a table in
commands.ts; help and Tab leave them out, and the wiki lists them.
A settings sheet (`,` or `:settings`) holds the options, the vault, the
backup, the signed-in browsers, ssh keys and capture tokens. Each row runs
the command a line would. Bare `:set`, `:vault`, `:backup`, `:sessions`,
`:sshkey` and `:token` open it at their part.
`?` shows the keys and commands to start with, flagged in the keymap and the
command table; a second `?` (or `:help all`) shows all of them, and a filter
always searches all of them. Help rows are keyed by key and description, as
two contexts can share a label.
A note now leaves the scratchpad by becoming something else: `K` keeps it
as a document, as before; `C` makes it a card where `:card` would put one,
the first line its title; `A` opens `:append` with the document on screen
filled in, Tab completing any other title, and puts the note at its end.
`/api/capture` takes `to: "note"` and `to: "document"` (named as a link
names it), and `note`, the scratch note the text came from, dropped once
the text has landed. Appending keeps the revision before it and indexes
links and media, as a save does.
Migration 0028 adds `scratch_fts`; `GET /api/scratch?q=` searches it, and
`/` lists note hits under "notes" after the cards, Enter lowering the
drawer at the note.
The `c` capture line cycles its target with Tab: a card, a note, or a
timed line in today's entry, which `:today <text>` now writes.
The README grew a section per feature and is a good reference, but nothing
said where to begin. docs/wiki now has a getting-started page, a guide that
walks through one day with the workspace and explains each part where it comes
up, and a page per part of the app, each with screenshots of what it
describes.
Three pages are read out of the code rather than written, so they cannot drift
from it: the keys and commands from Help.svelte and commands.ts, the same lists
`:help` draws; the settings from .env.example, which gains a heading for the
vault, trash and history settings so they no longer sit under mail; and the
API from the README's table. `make wiki` writes them, and `--check` fails when
one is stale or a link between pages leads nowhere. `--publish` lays the pages
out for a GitHub wiki: links without `.md`, images beside them, `[[` escaped so
the wiki does not take a command's help text for a link to a page.
The screenshots are taken by `make screenshots`: the debug binary on a
temporary data directory, with a password made up for the run, filled with an
example workspace over the API, and a headless Chromium driven over the
DevTools protocol through the views the docs show. Nothing outside the
temporary directory is touched but docs/images, and the pictures are cut to
256 colours, a third of their size, which a dark UI does not show.
The README opens with the banner, a CI badge, the guide, the features grouped
by what they are for, and six of the screenshots.
