Revamps the default layout for a more app-like experience, including improved meta tags, loading indicators, and accessibility. Updates custom CSS for modern theming, glass effects, and responsive design. Replaces lazy-load.js with a feature-rich PWA/app shell script supporting touch feedback, offline notifications, install banners, and accessibility improvements. Expands manifest.json with new fields, categories, and shortcuts for better PWA support. Upgrades the service worker for robust caching, cache busting, and resource management.
Removed app loader and touch feedback for a simpler, faster UI. Updated footer, enhanced link cards for accessibility, and streamlined CSS for better consistency and dark mode support. JavaScript was refactored to remove PWA install prompts, touch feedback, and performance optimizations, focusing on lazy loading, network status, and accessibility.
Removed unnecessary wrapper divs and classes from default.html, streamlining the main content structure. Updated custom.css to consolidate and simplify container, body, and responsive styles, improving maintainability and alignment with the Jekyll structure.
Refactored the link card layout to display icons on the left and text on the right, improving readability and alignment. Updated CSS variables for glass background and border to use darker, more opaque values for better contrast. Adjusted container and card spacing, added responsive styles for link cards, and reduced footer spacing.
Removed unnecessary Primer classes from the links list and link items in links.html, streamlining the markup. Overhauled link card CSS to more aggressively override Primer styles, ensure consistent appearance, and improve responsiveness across breakpoints. Added !important to many style rules for specificity and included fallback styles for browsers without backdrop-filter support.
Removed 'user-scalable=no' from the viewport meta tag for better accessibility. Updated CSS to simplify padding and margin, center link card content, and adjust container and card sizing for various screen widths to enhance mobile responsiveness and visual consistency.
