Website versions

Changed

• Dates follow the language of the page by default instead of the browser. "System" is still available in the settings.

Fixed

• The note on the DinoPulse card now leads to the help question on a second click too.
• In older browsers only "On this page" stays in place on the right, the download card scrolls.

Added

• You can download DinoPulse: a new card with the download, the systems and the release on GitHub.
• In the "Latest versions" box DinoPulse now shines instead of hammering.

Changed

• Snowflakes keep their distance from the text in winter.

Added

• A jump menu with pictures replaces the list and the bar on the settings page, on phones too.
• A custom accent colour from a colour wheel that only offers easy-to-read colours.

Changed

• The settings start with reading and controls, the fun comes further down.
• Clearer texts on the settings page, in German and English.
• Pink and purple are gone as accent colours, anyone who picked them sees green again.

Added

• A small animation welcomes you on your first visit to the start page. You can skip it and watch it again in the settings.

Changed

• The "On this page" list in the settings has its small dashes back.

Changed

• "On this page" in the settings now sits above the preview and no longer jumps when you point at something.
• A setting that has no effect right now is paler and tells you why.
• Hearts and slideshow have named lines for their buttons.
• "Preview" is now a quiet link next to the name of a setting.
• The preview card now says "Follows the mouse" and "Stays put", and before and after only appear when there is a difference.

Fixed

• The section bar of the settings now always shows the current section.

Fixed

• With large text on narrow phones, the version in the "Latest versions" box now moves below the name of the app instead of breaking the name letter by letter.

Fixed

• If the site stays open past midnight, it now moves into winter and out again by itself.
• The preview card for "Snowflakes" now says when no snow is falling.

Added

• It snows in winter: from 1 December to the end of February flakes fall behind the content, little heaps of snow lie on the boxes, and the meadow in the sidebar is covered in snow.
• From 1 December to 6 January the dinos on the start page wear Santa hats.
• The settings have a new "Season" group for this: you can choose how many flakes fall and switch each part or all of it off. With "Reduce motion" no snow falls.

Changed

• When you move the mouse away from the dinos, the speech bubbles float up and fade instead of just vanishing.

Fixed

• On narrower screens with the sidebar open, "Welcome" no longer breaks in the middle of the word: the title fits the space, and the dinos get smaller when it gets tight.
• The dinos' speech bubbles are now fully visible with the small welcome, the dyslexia-friendly font and the compact view too. With large text the app tiles stand one below the other on narrow screens.

Added

• The dinos on the start page now talk to each other: point at them and one says something, the other answers in a bubble of its own, more lovingly than before and with little text emojis.
• The hearts on click circle the dinos like a ring around Saturn. Under "Hearts on click" you can let them fly free again.

Changed

• DinoPulse now has the hammer in the "Latest versions" box too, as it is being actively worked on.

Changed

• The hammer in the "Latest versions" box now strikes more steeply from above and just taps the number instead of covering its first digit.

Added

• On the German pages the commands and versions of Green Dino and the versions of DinoPulse are now in German, in the news and in the settings preview too.
• Below the pictures a sentence says when an app does not speak the language of the page yet: Green Dino on the German page, DinoMark on the English one.

Changed

• Instead of the turning line, an arrow to the right of "Apps" shows whether the apps are open (pointing down) or folded away (pointing right). "Apps" has the same slash again as every other line.

Changed

• The line after "Apps" is now one drawn line that turns in even steps, instead of four different characters taking turns.

Added

• The apps in the sidebar fold away with a click on "Apps", and the slash spins once as they do. The site remembers it, and the settings have it under "Apps in the sidebar".

Changed

• The browser tab now says SnuggleDino.dev, on its own on the start page, otherwise after the name of the page.
• When you share a link, the card shows the name of the page as its title, and the start page says "Welcome to SnuggleDino.dev".

Changed

• When you share a link on Discord, its card now has a green edge. Some phone browsers colour their top bar the same way.

Added

• Sharing a link to the site shows a large card in Discord, X and WhatsApp, with the app's logo for apps and their news, otherwise with the site's name and the dino pair.

Fixed

• A slideshow that only runs by hand uses the chosen speed when you play it.
• A pet counter you reset stays at zero, even with the start page open in another tab.
• Without JavaScript you can switch the language in the settings.
• "Underline links" leaves out language buttons, command chips and cards.
• A link to a folded command group unfolds it.
• With the time of day on automatic, the preview card no longer starts over every minute.
• "See what is stored" also shows changes made afterwards.

Fixed

• Without JavaScript, the sidebar on phones also closes with a tap on the dimmed page.
• With the sidebar open on phones, the Tab key no longer reaches "Skip to content" behind it.
• A paused slideshow no longer keeps working in the background.

Fixed

• On phones, the sidebar now slides in from the side chosen in the settings.

Added

• Green Dino now has a "Planned" tab.

Added

• On every news entry, the card on the right lists more entries about the same project.

Changed

• Cards now show their project in a slanted label instead of a stripe along the edge.

Added

• DinoMark shows its versions, on its own page under "Versions" and in the "Latest versions" box.

Changed

• The hammer in the "Latest versions" box now sits next to the number of apps that are still in development.

Added

• A new design: a sidebar on the left with the name in rainbow colours and a dino meadow, a big welcome with the dino pair, tiles for the apps and a box with the newest versions.
• Settings on a page of their own: 42 settings in eight groups, with a preview card, a dyslexia-friendly font and text size from 80 to 130 percent.
• You can also switch the language at the bottom of the sidebar, with flags.
• The website now has a version number. Clicking it shows this list.

Changed

• The start page shows five news items with their lead, the newest across the full width.
• Every app page has an "At a glance" card, and the pictures open as a slideshow.
