The chevron beside every section and group was saying "clickable" a
second time next to an icon and a bold name that already said it. Gone
now: a system section folds from anywhere on its heading, and a group
folds from its folder icon while the name still opens the group's page.
No arrow on the rail.

System sections (Projects, Filters, Labels) and user groups (Work,
Home) now share one design: a bold label at menu size, a leading
folder/funnel/tag/people icon, and an always-visible fold chevron.
Groups drop their colour dot for the same folder icon, so the sidebar
reads as one consistent hierarchy instead of two visual languages.

Following the Things pass, four bits of polish:
- The fixed views carry their own colour — amber star for Today, blue tray
for the Inbox, red Upcoming, violet Waiting on others, teal Notes, indigo
Calendar — and keep it whether or not they are the active row.
- The active row was all but invisible on the dark sidebar (a half-step of
surface); it is now an accent-tinted selection that reads in both themes.
- The Projekter heading — the only place to add a project or a group — no
longer scrolls away with a long list; it is pinned to the top of the
scroller.
- The note list and the editor lift off the page: white in light, a nuance
lighter than the ground in dark, so the two read as one writing surface.
Screenshots regenerated.

Toward Things' calm: the fixed views carry icons instead of dots — a star
for Today, a calendar for Upcoming, a person for Waiting on others, a tray
for the Inbox. Areas (the user's groups) are set in bold, plainly cased, so
the eye lands on them the way it lands on an area in Things; the system
sections (Projekter, Filtre, Etiketter) stay quiet. And projects sit at the
same left margin whether or not they are in an area — one straight edge down
the sidebar rather than a staircase, with the bold heading doing the
grouping the indent used to.
Screenshots regenerated to match.

The landing page and the docs now show and describe what has landed since
the last site update:
- the delegated-task marker (an arrow to whoever has it) — visible now in
the board, list and Waiting-on-others shots
- snooze — one seeded task is parked so the board shows a card greyed at
the foot of its column
- Web Push reminders to iPhone and Mac, dated tasks in a subscribed
calendar, task durations on the calendar, and per-person note sharing
Screenshots regenerated against the current UI (PNG for docs/README, WebP
for the landing page, from the one capture). "Lately" brought current.

The landing page did not mention two things the app grew — sharing a note with a
person, and task durations — and its screenshots were all in the dark theme.
- Copy: a cell for sharing a note or a page (to a person, or by filing it in a
project, with the Shared with me group), and one for how long a task takes (drawn
to length on the calendar, dragged by its foot, kept when moved).
- Two new screenshots in the light theme, at the top of the gallery: the calendar
drawing timed tasks to their real length, and a note somebody shared gathered
under Shared with me. English throughout, like the rest of the site — the capture
account is English, so the interface is.
The generator grew the demo data these need: a handful of timed tasks with lengths
across the week, and a note the colleague shares back to the owner. Every other
screenshot was recaptured from the current build in the same pass, so the whole set
reflects what ships today (the tidied note footer, and the rest).

Landingssiden og dokumentationen læses på engelsk, og billederne var danske
hele vejen — både grænsefladen og indholdet. Kontoen bliver nu oprettet med
engelsk sprog frem for at oversætte noget her: det er sådan appen selv gør
det, og det er også dét, der får en glemt oversættelse til at stå i et
billede i stedet for at vente på en bruger.
Demodataene er skrevet om til engelsk arbejde og husholdning. Og der er en
person mere: en invitation, en konto, tre opgaver hun sidder på og en
kommentar. Halvdelen af det, appen er til for, findes først, når der er to i
den — en ansvarlig på en opgave, et navn i historikken, og "Venter på andre"
som andet end en tom side.
Tre billeder viste ikke det, teksten sagde. `detail` var en tom formular, så
opgaven har fået beskrivelse, undertasks, en fil, en påmindelse og en samtale.
`themes` viste profilfeltet over temaerne, så den ruller nu ned til dem.
`delegated` var en tom tilstand.
Noterne er kommet til — listen med en note åben, og den samme note som kilde.
Fjorten billeder i alt.
WebP'en skrives af den browser, der i forvejen står åben, frem for af cwebp:
et program mere at installere hører ikke til i et script, hvis hele pointe er,
at der ikke er noget at installere. PNG'erne ligger nu kun i docs/ og WebP'en
kun i site/, hvilket er præcis dét, de to steder læser — før lagde et kørsel
tolv usporede PNG'er i site/, som ingen brugte.

Two from use.
Section headings were small uppercase text over a hairline — a heading you have to
look for. A project with four sections is four groups, and the eye should be able
to count them without reading a word, so the heading gets a ground of its own and
the rows sit against the page. `--surface` rather than a tint of the accent: the
colour on that page belongs to the project, and a section is not a second thing to
colour. A step in lightness separates them in all five themes without anybody
measuring anything.
And the Inbox. The server names it at account creation, before anybody has seen a
settings page, so it is the one project name nobody chose — and an account made in
Danish went on saying "Indbakke" inside an English interface, which reads as a
string somebody forgot to translate. It was. `projectName()` translates it while it
still carries the name the server gave it; rename it and that is your name for it,
in every language, like any other project. The rename field keeps the raw name, or
editing a translated label would save the translation.
The screenshot set gains the list view, which is where sections read as bands
rather than as columns — and the shape most people actually work in.

They were many rounds behind — no settings, no task detail, no themes, no groups,
no colours, no calendar, no admin pages. The reason is in how they were made:
`tools/shots` needs a running instance and a session cookie pasted in by hand, so
it ran about as often as somebody felt like doing that.
`node scripts/generate-screenshots.js` starts the real binary, creates its own
account, fills it with Danish demo data and photographs eleven surfaces into both
`site/screenshots` and `docs/screenshots`. Nothing to set up and nothing to
remember.
A script rather than a test, for the same reason `generate-icons.js` is one: CI
must never rewrite a tracked binary file.
`tools/shots` stays. It is still the way to photograph an instance that is
already running rather than a fresh one.

The landing page and README now show the app rather than describing it.
The images are captured by tools/shots, which drives a headless Chrome
over the DevTools protocol — Chrome's own --screenshot flag cannot set a
session cookie, so it would only ever photograph the sign-in page. Kept
in the repository so they can be regenerated when the interface changes,
rather than being something somebody did once by hand.
The quick-add example on the site is in English, with the Danish
equivalent shown underneath — the page is read by people who do not
speak Danish, and the point being made is that both work.
Yggdrasil is stated up front rather than left to the footer: being a
Rune is what this was built for, and somebody running the panel should
learn that in the first paragraph instead of the last line.
