Custom styles no longer need @version 1; at the top: the language
version already lives beside the text, so new and converted stylesheets
leave it out, the editor hides it in older ones, and the compiler
ignores it. The validity status and inline diagnostics are gone too:
whatever applies shows in the preview and anything else is left out.
Scrolling the Design panel over the template cards jumped it back:
browser scroll anchoring misfired in the editor's panel scroller, so it
is off there. The panel was also one scroller shared by every mode, so
Design opened at Write's scroll position; each mode now gets its own.
In-page URL updates (mode, filters, open sheet) no longer ask the router
to reset or restore scroll.
The write panel is narrow, so an entry's fields now take the whole
column. Start and end dates still share a line and now span it, with
Present below. A new entry's badge just says Draft.
The drawer took a mouse press anywhere outside Drawer.Content as the
start of a swipe and captured the pointer, so switches and buttons in a
bottom sheet never received the click. The sheet's children now sit in
Drawer.Content; touch swipes still dismiss from anywhere.
Motion's reducedMotion="user" only drops transforms, so opacity fades
still ran and could be caught half-faded (axe flagged the assistant).
The design makes every duration instant under reduced motion, as the
CSS tokens already do.
The phone entry screen pushes in from the end edge and slides back out on
Back, reversing mid-push. The Design sheet keeps its full height and moves
by translate instead of animating height, and rises from the tab bar when
Design opens. The selection bar rises and fades in.
Sheet is now backed by Base UI Drawer: bottom sheets follow a downward
swipe, dismiss on a flick or a drag past half their height, and settle back
otherwise. Side and top sheets are unchanged.
On phones, Settings rows push the section in from the end and the back link
returns the list from the start, layered on the page view transition.
Views that replace each other (new-document steps, auth post-submit
screens, ATS checker states, consent, social sign-in, new API key) now
fade up 4px as they arrive. The ATS lenses both stay mounted so switching
back never re-reads the PDF, and the 1024-1279 assistant swap crossfades
in the panel's cell (instant on Cmd+J).
Things that used to push layout no longer move what the user is reading:
the bulk-selection bar floats at the bottom of the list, the rich text
toolbar sits under the text, and the letter draft bar takes the Stop
button's place under the draft. The drop-to-import frame, follow-up
nudge, job-match panel, public-link options, and rare save states fade in.
Adds a Swap primitive so copy buttons crossfade Copy -> Copied at a fixed
width, and POP_CLASS for status icons (progress checks, tool status,
proposal Applied, the public download icon).
Loaded content now settles in: library cards and rows, checker issue rows,
assistant suggestions and past conversations rise in with a short stagger on
first appearance only; new assistant messages and "Thinking…" rise in while
history stays put; a newly made document fades up from 96% with its accent
ring fading in.
Resume thumbnails keep the last drawn page of the same resume up while a new
one renders, so edits and return visits no longer drop to a placeholder. The
builder's first preview render paints hidden under the placeholder pages and
fades in; the PDF viewer reserves an A4 slot and holds its overlay until a
page has painted. The ATS checker ring fills on first reveal, ring colour
blends across the threshold, and report and insights bars grow from their
baseline.
Hand-rolled pulsing placeholders become the static Skeleton, shaped like the
view that is loading (documents grid or list, applications views, insights,
API keys). ENTER_CLASS and stagger() live in libs/motion.ts.
Menus, popovers and combobox lists now slide in from their trigger on
whichever side they open (data-side aware, RTL-correct), and submenus
open in 120ms and close in 84ms. The combobox list exits at 0.7x like
every other popup, and tooltips scale from their trigger.
Toasts keep travelling in the swipe direction when dismissed, ease back
on a cancelled swipe, and a replaced toast drops out before the new one
has finished rising.
The tabs indicator uses the movement curve and now also draws the line
variant's underline, so it slides instead of teleporting. Hotkey mode
switches in the resume and letter builders land instantly. Radio dots
and checkbox ticks grow in instead of popping or only fading.
Add a Collapsible primitive to @reactive-resume/ui wrapping Base UI's
collapsible, styled like the accordion panel: height grows over 200ms and
folds over 140ms on ease-enter, reversing mid-animation.
Use it for entry cards, section rows, Basics, Check categories,
Design > Advanced, More options, AI provider rows and ATS checker findings,
so content no longer teleports while the chevron rotates. Chevrons at those
sites now share duration-standard ease-enter.
Opening an entry scrolls it back into view once the previous one has folded
away if it slid above the panel, and the page-to-panel reveal re-aims its
scroll after the panels settle. Advanced's open state moves up to the
Design panel so its nav pill can open it; the e2e fixture drives the new
trigger via aria-expanded.
Builder sections and entries, keyword chips and layout pages now shuffle and
drop with the shared DRAG_SETTLE timing (200ms, ease-in-out-strong). Dragged
builder rows lift on a raised surface with a shadow instead of fading to 40%.
Chips get a drop animation instead of vanishing, and both drag overlays skip
the drop flight under reduced motion.
The board now shows a dropped card in its target column in the same
render the drag ends, via a one-card override that clears once the list
query catches up or rolls back, so the card no longer blinks back to its
old column. The overlay then settles into the card's new slot (or back
home) with a 200ms on-screen-movement drop animation, skipped under
reduced motion. The floating card lifts in on pickup, flattens while it
lands, and shows a grabbing cursor.
Adds a shared DRAG_SETTLE dnd-kit timing to libs/motion.
The PDF canvas now stretches its last bitmap while the page's size changes
and redraws once the new scale has held for 150ms, rendering off-screen and
copying over in one step so the page never blanks during the assistant
column's resize, zoom clicks or window resizes. New documents and pages still
render at once.
The assistant column closes in 70% of its open time, keeps its content at the
open width so it travels in with the column edge, and fades that content in
and out instead of unmounting it at once. The tablet drawer slides in from the
end edge and the phone screen rises from the bottom. Cmd+J switches all of
them without a transition via a new assistantInstant store flag.
Sheets and dialogs were closed by nulling the data they render, so they
went blank, flipped titles or tabs, or dropped rows on the first frame
of their exit. Add useClosingValue, which holds the last value until
Base UI's onOpenChangeComplete(false), and move same-tick resets into
onOpenChangeComplete. The edit-provider dialog and stylesheet color
picker stay mounted so their exit transition runs.
Buttons (every variant except link, skipped while loading), chips, tiles,
nav items, rail and tab-bar icons now dip to 0.97 on press; document,
template, application and suggestion cards dip to 0.98. Full-width settings
and conversation rows darken to the press colour instead of shrinking.
Joined button groups cancel the scale so their seams stay closed, and the
switch thumb stretches toward its travel while held.
Document and template cards transitioned transform, but Tailwind v4 lifts
with the translate property, so their hover lift jumped; they now list
translate and scale. A new document card keeps its accent ring while
hovered, and letter template cards lift like resume template cards.
Pathname changes after the first load now run a typed `page` view transition: the old page fades out over 140ms and the new one fades up 6px over 200ms on the house tokens. Search-param and hash changes, the first load and browsers without view-transition types stay instant. The app nav, settings nav and auth logo are named so they hold still.
The auth card's load-time entrance is removed. Applications views, the Documents grid/list switch and Calendar month changes now enter with a short fade (months slide from the direction of travel), only after the user switches.
Root beforeLoad now reads the session and flags through the query cache
instead of refetching them on every navigation and preload. A signed-in
session is reused for a minute, a signed-out one is always re-checked,
and every sign-in, profile and 2FA change invalidates the cached session
before re-running route guards. The active Lingui locale is no longer
re-activated per navigation.
Links now preload on intent with TanStack Query deciding freshness, the
pending loader shows after 300ms and holds for 300ms, and it fades in on
in-app navigations while still taking over the HTML loader without a
blink on first load.
Set Tailwind's default transition duration and curve to --d1/--ease so
bare transition-* utilities run quick on the house curve. Mirror the
motion tokens in libs/motion.ts (EASE, EASE_MOVE, D1-D3, EXIT) and move
app UI off ease-out-strong and hand-typed 150/300ms durations; the
landing page keeps --ease-out-strong.
Give snapping hover and focus states a transition, slide progress fills
with translate instead of animating width, keep selection outlines'
width and style constant so they fade from transparent instead of
flashing dark, and drop the unused agent-prompt-marquee keyframes.
Forme gives an absolute box no height from its top and bottom offsets,
so the bar that react-pdf stretched down each section's items vanished.
The converter now draws such a bar as the left border of a box around
the other children, which is as tall as they are and is painted on
every page the section reaches.
Removes useCallback, useMemo and memo from the 27 files the compiler compiles without bailing. Files it bails on (destructuring defaults, try/finally, refs read during render) keep their manual memoization.
RichInput, the full-toolbar editor only notes used, is gone with its tests; the editor extensions it defined move to rich-text-extensions.ts, which the rich text editor already used.
The preview cross-fades each new render with motion, which animates in JavaScript and ignores the CSS reduced-motion rule. A render landing from the PDF worker while a sheet was open could leave a page half-faded, so its caption read at low contrast (and moved for users who asked for less motion).
Resumes no longer hold cover-letter sections. A migration saves every
letter a resume carried as a letter linked to that resume's details and
design, hands a resume's only letter to its only letter-less application,
then removes the sections from resumes and their layouts. rollback.sql
puts them back.
Every resume write on the server moves any letter it still carries into
a saved letter in the same transaction, so stale tabs, older files, API
clients and restored versions keep working without duplicating letters.
The resume editor no longer adds or imports letters, the resume download
drops its Cover letter tab, and resume PDF downloads (API, signed links,
MCP) no longer take a cover-letter target. copy_embedded_cover_letter and
POST /cover-letters/from-resume are removed.
The expand steps of the redesign kept older app versions and API clients
working. This removes those compatibility paths:
- Entry date text (period/date) is written from the structured dates on
every save; an edit to the text alone is overwritten.
- application.archived is dropped; archived rows close first. CSV import
still reads the flag from older exports.
- resume_version.label is dropped; versions are named by kind and name.
- rejected is no longer accepted as a stage; remaining rows and history
close first. CSV import still maps it to closed.
BREAKING CHANGE: older app versions and API clients that read or write
archived, version labels, the rejected stage or date text alone no
longer work. migrations/20260929063245_contract_redesign_legacy_fields
has a rollback.sql that restores the dropped columns.
