This UI generally loads very fast, thanks to the CDN cache, so the flash of skeleton content is more distracting than anything else! We still show it quickly after 300ms, but good network connections should reliably get it loaded before then.
I haven't seen anything come in from prod yet, and it's hard to trigger one, maybe because the integration is React-specific? Or maybe it's... not working :p
I can send errors from dev! But just haven't _seeeen_ a prod error come in yet.
Maybe we're just squeaky clean tho :3
This has been bothering me for a long time, but I couldn't really figure out what to do about it. But tweaking the site bg color a smidge has helped us really add texture to the cards I want to have pop out, like the outfit polaroids!
I kinda went all-in in a burst, but tbh I think it looks great :3
I haven't really touched the wardrobe page with it yet though, that'll probably need some tweaking... for now I'm overriding it to keep the old background!
Looks like there was some kind of runtime conflict when running @emotion/css and @emotion/react at the same time in this app? Some styles would just get clobbered, making things look all weird.
Here, I've removed our @emotion/css dependency, and use the `<ClassNames>` utility element from `@emotion/react` instead. I'm not thrilled about the solution, but it seems okay for now...
...one other thing I tried was passing a `css` prop to Chakra elements, which seemed to work, but to clobber the element's own Emotion-based styles. I assumed that the Babel macro wouldn't help us, and wouldn't convert css props to className props for non-HTML elements... but I suppose I'm not sure!
Anyway, I don't love this syntax... but I'm happy for the site to be working again. I wonder if we can find something better.
I noticed that, if you're _reading_ the beta callout it's obviously a feedback link, but it's easy to glaze over "Tell us what you think". Here, I've added the word "feedback" to make it stand out on scanning the page, while adding "Got ideas?" to keep it feeling colloquial.
Oops, I shipped with the images.neopets.com TODO undone! Also, the white background was intersecting with the close X for the feedback form.
In this change, we move the xwee image into our bundle instead of depending on images.neopets.com, and we edit it to have a transparent background, which looks nicer for dark mode. (And we do a srcset!)
Not 100% sure on the copy, but I like that it's a bit clearer about the value prop. I tried to work in customization for SEO, but it feels too clunky in a sentence, might need to put it elsewhere in the copy!
Fading the whole preview to a black overlay for the loading state was feeling aggressive, especially since loading delay wasn't working correctly!
In this change, I fix loading delay, and I add a nice subtle "corner" variant for outfit preview spinners :)
(the permissioning happens on the backend in the prev change! but yeah we send the auth token in the headers, so the backend knows who you are and whether to show you private data)
(also it is just owned items not in any list!)
Hey wow this was not so hard, just set some global styles, removed some hardcoded colors, and walked through the remaining hardcoded colors to pick a dark mode variant :) neat!!
Using the newly extracted OutfitPreview! I'm really happy with how this turned out :3
It also makes the pageload after clicking Start super smooth, no spinner! Thanks Apollo cache!!
