Changelog

Quick fix: consistent validation for adding and editing project tags. . is now a valid a tag constituent.

• new tutorial project for new users
• nicer loading animations for not yet loaded mini cards and for card detail view
• clicking on milestones wihtin the calendar lets you edit them

A new release with plenty of improvements!

All new milestone inspector

The old way of browsing and inspecting your next milestones always felt a bit clunky. So we thought of something new!

You now are able to visualise your milestones in a simple time line. A much nicer representation of time. This also gave us enough room for displaying all the cards of a milestone below.

You can access the old calendar view from your deck library.

More features and fixes

• 30% less javascript loaded to open a url for a card - resulting in a faster load time
• Nicer looks of the search panel
• you now can attach a file to a card by dragging the file onto the mini card
• conversation notification emails will now actually be sent within 10 minutes
• much less jank with those sticky boxes while scrolling
• restyled settings panels and much nicer design for the subscriptions tab
• should you not be able to connect to the server or should the app crash, we’ll let you know
• and a lot more

• Make IE useable again!
• Reopen websocket for real time updates once they’ve been closed by a (typically) 60 minute timeout

Such excite! After almost 2 years of work, we’re very happy to finally be able to release Codecks to the public.

Here’s the last batch of changes:

Fancy Metrics

Micha, our designer, is definitely worth the little money we pay him! The charts and graphs now are a lot nicer to look at!

Move user invite into user management

One less button on the dashboard by moving user invitation to a place where it makes just as much sense.

You’ll be receiving an email shortly to celebrate the moment. 🎊

Account Dashboard

• Much prettier and hopefully more useful project tiles!
• Put projects and user activity view side by side (given your screen is big enough)
• User activity entries are now grouped by user and time intervals
• Card title within the activity entries are colour coded by a card’s current state

Others

• A lot of confirmation messages got a unified UI and are shown as blue overlay messages in the bottom left.
• Deck and milestone inspector got a prettier header
• Prettify the deck selector when moving cards to a different deck
• When performing a search, the active search pills is shown directly on the card panel, not in the header
• Milestone calender got a fresh look as well 🍸

• Optimistic updates: certain actions like creating and updating cards and decks should feel quicker, since we now don’t always wait for the server to send us all the data. This also means that dismissing notifications now should be a more pleasant affair!
• Redesigned the search box to show up in an overlay rather than a panel to get rid of some glitches related to scrollbars. A more polished design is already prepared by Micha, so stay tuned!
• Metrics: The burndown chart and cumulative flow diagram now are always up to date and you won’t need to wait up to 6 hours no more.
• The milestone overview now moved to the left and is collapsible. We’re also very excited about much broader changes to the milestone section. More on that soon!
• The color extraction algorithm now prefers colourful colours over gray and especially white! 🌈

• Improved layout and copy within your subscription settings
• Welcome messages for new accounts
• Improved copy of invoices
• Bug fix: Notifications didn’t open the corresponding card when in deck library
• Don’t unsnooze card if you move it to a different deck or assign milestone

The Big One

Oooof. No, we weren’t sleeping on the job (well, not all the time) – we were just doing a lot of behind the scenes work to prepare our release 1.0 (public) 😱 which is now a matter of a few weeks.

Subscriptions

tl;dr subscriptions are not live yet, but most of the code necessary is implemented, still needing some design tweaks

The bulk of the work we did was implementing all the subscription and payment related code. It was a mammoth task, and we’re relieved that it’s finally in.

We’ve already spoken about how our subscription model will work and if you missed it take a look at our post on this topic. We’ll also have a complete FAQ on this very soon.

Small release while were fiddling with subscriptions and VAT and all that jazz in the background:

• Newsletter Option: Newsletters! Newsletters! Everyone loves Newsletters. Everyone should get newsletters! We’ve tried to come up with the most attention grabbing ways to grab your attention for you to subscribe to our newsletter love. Go ahead. You know we need you to need it!
• Some subtle fixes to get rid of exceptions when clicking on the wrong areas within a card 🤓
• Clicking on card content to edit the card will put your edit cursor to the end of that paragraph (again).
