Features update

We had a really productive evening yesterday, pushing out some new features to LiLi:
Tag display: tags are less intrusive.
Unification: the "Welcome" and the "Your Links" pages now use the same component to render links.
InstaPaste: the "Welcome" page allows you to simply paste a URL from clipboard to be added.

Two new features released

We released two features earlier this day.
Quick search on the Welcome page now includes tags when searching. All in all a Link's url, title, description and their tags will be searched.
Tag pages are a go! Click on a tag to view all Links related to it.

New feature (behind the scenes)

Signed in LiLi users now get nice Toastr system notifications when editing/saving things.

Some features (last two for today)

We added more info to the quick search bar, added a pager.
Enabled user setting "per page". Sets the number of items to show in lists (Welcome page and "Your Links" page for now).

Re-Style

We changed the way info is shown to the user, dates are now "for Humans", <blockquote>s got a fancy styling as well. Some minor changes in the background, optimizations. I feel like the blog needs some re-style too. Let's see what we can do.

OG & Behind The Scenes

The LiLi website now has OpenGraph meta data and a favicon.

For registered users:
"Your Tags" now show "special tags" seperate from regular tags. "Special tags" contain a :, like List:Python.
"Your Links" can now be filtered and searched. We also enabled "QuickPaste" on that page.

Small fixes

Added source maps for .js and .css files. Also added rel="noopener" to external links.

I am not good at maintaining a blog

Blog bugged

While the previous post was about writing blog posts I just realized that the LiLi blog is broken. Time to fix some stuff
