The panel dropped the eight feature tiles and the self-hosted line — they read
as a spec sheet on a screen whose job is to get you in. What is left is the
mark, the tagline and one line of copy, centred over the map, each with a soft
dark halo so the dots cannot eat the type. The tagline and subtitle never wrap:
they scale with the panel instead, since it is a fixed share of the viewport.
The takeoff after sign-in used to tell a different story than the screen it
came from — cloud ellipses, a lone plane, a contrail. It now picks the panel up
and escalates it: the same map, every route departing at once, the logo landing
as the network completes, then a soft hand-off into the app.
Replaces the drifting plane silhouettes with the thing TREK actually does:
routes lighting up between cities across a dot map of the world. Arcs leave a
city, a light travels the curve, the destination lands, and the arc retires to
make room for the next.
The map is drawn once into an offscreen layer and blitted per frame, so only
the handful of live arcs cost anything — no shadowBlur in the frame path. The
same component covers the sign-in moment via `variant="takeoff"`, where the
network fires as one cascade and stays lit instead of cycling.
Reduced motion gets the map as a still frame.
The login screen is unauthenticated, so it cannot call the Atlas endpoint the
rest of the app uses for country geometry. This is that same admin-0 bundle,
sampled along the coastlines onto a 300x150 grid and delta-encoded — 15 KB
instead of a 28 MB fetch nobody is allowed to make yet.
The page still described Vacay as strictly January to December and never
mentioned half days at all, so both new features would have shipped
undocumented.
Windows for all three year types, the fallbacks (anniversary without a hire
date, a day the month cannot have), usage counted across the calendar-year
boundary, carry-over chained over periods rather than years, deleteYear over a
shifted period, and the reads with and without a viewer.
For comp: excluded from usage, a half comp day still costing nothing,
converting a vacation day back, and comp_used reported on its own.
The half-day button carried a ½ glyph and comp/flex a clock, neither of which
appears anywhere on the calendar. Both now show what a click actually puts on
the day: the orange dot for a half day, a hatched disc in the selected person's
colour for comp.
The digit on an all-comp cell also needed help. The hatch lets the surface
through between its stripes, so a white number sank into it — a shadow carries
the contrast now and every logged day keeps the same digit colour. Mixed days
still have a solid segment under the number and get none.
The server has returned comp_used since the leave type landed, but nothing
showed it — comp days simply vanished from the sidebar. They now sit beside
the tiles rather than inside the used/left arithmetic, which is the point of
them.
Carry-over is labelled from the window the server counted that row over, not
from the viewer's own setting, so a fused plan with mixed leave years does not
tell one member their days came "from 2025" when they came from a period that
started in July.
The card also folds now. It is the longest thing in the sidebar once several
people are fused in, and the state belongs to the person looking at it, so it
lives in localStorage rather than on the plan.
Calendar, fiscal (month + day) or from the hire date, per user — it sits with
the plan settings but belongs to the person, so fused members each keep their
own and the grid follows whoever is looking at it.
Both grids render twelve months from the window start with year rollover
instead of a fixed Jan–Dec, and the mobile month navigation moves through slots
of that window, so stepping past December lands in January of the same period
rather than jumping back to the start of the calendar year. The month effect
keys on the window's shape rather than the settings object, which the store
replaces with an equal copy on every refresh — otherwise any sync would throw
away the month the user had open.
Known edge for a start day past the 1st: the cards are month-aligned, so the
first days of the start month are drawn but count toward the previous period.
Counting stays day-exact.
The server owns the arithmetic entitlements are computed with, but the grid has
to render the same twelve months and the overlays have to filter against the
same range, so the window resolves on both sides. yearWindow.ts is that mirror,
including the Feb-29 clamp and the anniversary-without-a-hire-date fallback.
The store loads the settings before the year list picks a default — with a
shifted year the current period is not necessarily the current calendar year.
Holidays are fetched per calendar year the window touches and clipped back to
what the grid draws; a school break straddling New Year comes back from both
fetches, so markers are de-duplicated per day. The label is part of that
identity, otherwise two calendars left on the same colour collapse into one.
Adds GET/PUT /addons/vacay/year-settings and makes the reads window-aware, so
the backend from the previous commit is actually reachable.
Entries and shared calendars now load over the caller's window instead of a
date prefix — a shifted year spans two calendar years and the prefix silently
dropped the second half. Reads are month-aligned (the grid draws month cards),
while entitlement stays day-exact; the two coincide for every window starting
on the 1st, which is all of calendar. deleteYear clears entries per author over
that author's period, and company holidays only over the range every member
shares, so one member deleting a period cannot reach into another's live one.
getStats reports the window it counted, and getOwnPlan seeds the period today
falls into rather than the calendar year.
A start day the month cannot have (Feb 29 from a hire date, a stored Feb 31)
is clamped to one every year has — otherwise the boundary string matches no
date and the whole window slides. Anniversary before a hire date is entered
resolves to the calendar year instead of borrowing a month a previous fiscal
setting left behind.
MCP reads pass their user through; without one the range stays the plain
calendar year, so plan-scoped callers are unchanged.
The kind column changed four things the tests still asserted the old way:
toggleEntry gained a parameter, the toolbar gained the comp modifier, shared
calendar rows carry kind, and a multi-person cell is now segment overlays
instead of one split gradient. splitBackground went with it — nothing but the
test still referenced it.
The toolbar tests picked the half-day button by index, which the new button
shifted; they select by name now so the next modifier does not break them.
Comp/Flex days (#1074) — complete. A second leave type that does not deduct from the vacation entitlement (flextime / overtime offset). New kind column on vacay_entries, excluded from usedDays via a CASE sum; toggleEntry carries kind through service/nest/store with change-detection; desktop and mobile get a comp toolbar toggle next to the half-day one (orthogonal, so a half comp day is free); comp segments render as a diagonal hatch of the person colour, per-segment for split days (Version B). comp_used is surfaced separately in getStats. Translated into all 23 locales.
Configurable vacation year (#737) — backend only. Per-user vacay_user_settings (calendar / fiscal / anniversary), resolveYearWindow, and usedDays / compUsedDays / getStats / carry-over now computed over the leave-year [start,end) window. 'calendar' resolves byte-identically to the old date-prefix behaviour, so nothing changes for existing users and the feature is inert until the settings UI lands. Frontend (settings selector + calendar window rollover), the settings endpoint, window-aware getEntries and holiday loading are still to do — see the PR description.
The always-on card picker is gone — travelers are assigned in the booking and transport modals now, matching mobile. The card shows assigned travelers read-only as pills in the grey field box, TravelerChips is replaced by a shared TravelerPicker, and the toolbar filter gets gradient avatars with an accent ring and check badge.
Gemini reached through the OpenAI-compatible endpoint returns
JavaScript-object-literal output — single-quoted strings, unquoted keys,
trailing commas — which strict JSON.parse rejects. The reservation list
then came back empty and the booking-import UI showed nothing (#1638).
Add a shared parseLenientJson() that tries strict JSON first and falls
back to JSON5 (which accepts exactly that relaxed superset), and route
both the OpenAI-compatible and Ollama-native parse paths through it,
replacing the two identical strict parsers.
A multi-leg flight imported "as one flight with a layover" is detached
from sync by design — AirTrail has no single flight to round-trip a
layover chain to, so it is created with sync_enabled=0 (#1535). The
reservations badge collapsed every sync_enabled=0 AirTrail row into "Not
synced" with the tooltip "This flight was removed in AirTrail", which is
false for a merged booking that was never removed (#1646).
Give the multi-leg case (metadata.legs.length > 1) its own state: show
the normal AirTrail badge with a truthful tooltip explaining it stays a
one-time import. A genuinely removed single-leg flight still shows "Not
synced". Adds reservations.airtrail.layoverHint across all locales.
The admin "user defaults" merge kept any user value that was merely
present, so an empty string shadowed the system-wide default. The
client's Settings save always writes every field — a blank Mapbox token
included — so a user who ever opened Map Settings got '' instead of the
admin token, and clearing their own token could never restore the
fallback (#1634).
Treat an empty/null user value for a defaultable key as "not set" when an
admin default exists, so it falls through. Non-defaultable keys and keys
without an admin default keep their exact stored value.
- The finale condenses out of light: ~1000 particles rise from the world and
gather into the anthem's letterforms before the crisp DOM text takes over;
the language cascade waits for the word to settle.
- Replaced fear-act lines decay letter by letter — the words of fear fall
apart instead of vanishing.
- The climax boom rocks the whole frame for half a second, in sync with the
sub impact and the border shatter.
- Hope-act lines reveal sentence by sentence, in speech rhythm.
- The standing anthem breathes — a barely-there scale and glow pulse.
- Beacon corners now use the dashboard tool widgets' --r-xl radius.
The show now ends standing: KEINE ANGST with the full 23-language cascade
stays up over the lit world, music carrying on until the traveler closes it —
no credits hand-off. Skip jumps straight to that standing frame.
Beacon: dismiss × removed, copy block centered on the canvas, the title gets
its quiet jewelry treatment — ivory-to-gold fill, a traveling sheen and a slow
breathing glow.
The overlay now portals to document.body: the sticky dashboard sidebar forms
its own stacking context, so the fixed navbar (z-200 at root) used to float
above the show regardless of the overlay's z-index.
The transition out of the fear act was too brutal: the silence now arrives as
a fast pull-away with the hall tail ringing out instead of a 100ms kill, the
pivot line trades its impact boom for a slow warm A1 swell (the first calm
breath), and the line itself breathes in over 3.4s.
Audio review fixes: the wind's swell LFO moves to a series tremolo stage so
the release can actually silence it before the cut (it used to warble through
the silence and click on stop); the heartbeat's noise layer becomes the
intended high-passed click instead of a dull lowpassed thud; dispose() pulls
the master to zero before the deferred context close so leaving the show
cannot pop.
Copy sits centered on the night-world canvas over a corner-pooling scrim; the
title grows monumental tracking, a gold sheen and a soft glow; the text CTA
becomes a slowly pulsing golden play circle that fills on hover. The version
eyebrow and the red live dot are gone — title, one line, play. Nothing else.
- Lines get a layered soft glow plus a radial pool of darkness under the text
zone, so they hold up over the burning border map without a hard box.
- Arc heads now interpolate fractionally along the curve with ease-out growth
(the whole-segment quantization read as stutter), in the show and the beacon
teaser alike.
- The score gains a convolution reverb with a procedurally generated impulse
response; the fear act trades raw saws for an organic bed (sine sub,
drifting fifth, breathing noise rumble, a semitone grind in the dread act),
the shimmer runs through a feedback echo, impact tails bloom in the hall,
the heartbeat stays close and dry.
The beacon is now a dark cinema card: a small canvas paints a breathing
night-world with golden travel arcs on loop, colored glows drift over it, the
title carries a gold sheen sweep and the copy sits on a bottom scrim. Core
colors ride inline so no dashboard widget CSS can wash the card out again.
Visual: city lights now come alive in the opening and die one by one while the
borders burn; three staccato words strobe with the heartbeat before the cut;
at the climax the borders no longer fade — they shatter into drifting sparks.
The traveler's own places ignite gold in the release act, with their real
numbers in the line ('{p} places. {c} countries. And not once did the world
hurt you.'). All heavy geometry is decimated to a vertex budget and pre-baked
into offscreen layers, so the frame path is a handful of drawImage calls — the
per-frame border stroke that dropped the show to ~1 fps is gone.
Sound: heartbeat with a click transient, wind textures, a doubled noise riser,
cue-driven sub-bass impacts and a gliding D–A–f#m–E progression with a sub
root under the anthem instead of the static pad.
Also: dashboard FAB hidden behind the show, suspended-AudioContext recovery
(Safari), tab-hidden pause for clock and audio, aborted geo fetch on close,
valid beacon markup (dismiss as sibling button), RTL-aware beacon, real
reduced-motion static frame, and native-speaker fixes for nl/sv/br/fr/it/es/
tr/gr copy.
A one-release statement against racism, hatred and fascism, told the way TREK
knows the world: through travel. A pulsing beacon in the dashboard sidebar
(desktop only, dismissible) opens a ~80s full-screen show — the world as a map
of dots whose borders burn red and then dissolve under a growing web of travel
connections, driven by a fully procedural Web Audio score (heartbeat, drone,
A-major release; no audio assets, no copyrighted material) and hard-cut lines
in all 23 TREK languages, closing on the anthem cascade and a credit to the
song that sparked it (Danger Dan — Keine Angst).
Self-contained in components/FourZero (own copy dictionary, no shared i18n
churn); wired into the dashboard with two marked lines. Removing the folder
plus those two lines retires the moment after the release.
