Search Engine View Goes Hard
Links, Fast Upload, a waitlist, click through dates, better calendar, delete from grid, one click chrome extension, the search engine view, related entries
Thanks to Buffer, I'm able to post on Twitter without going to Twitter to post. I miss posting here first, but it increases likelihood of strangers seeing the work, I guess. And I'll still have audio guides here!
(New Feature) Links are useful, especially when creating a body of knowledge, But they don't embed well, since they are effectively pointers. So I added a structure for them in the metadata! pic.twitter.com/KAItFOXF8U

(New Feature) ya gotta be able to search and add from anywhere on the companion! Cmd+K now routes you to search from anywhere on site and focuses the search bar. Cmd+U opens a fast uploader modal, also anywhere on the site. pic.twitter.com/fD62y4vyGS

I got a waitlist page up. It's not a landing page (yet), but it's a good start. pic.twitter.com/I0cRz7i8Do

(New Feature) Click through dates. See everything you added to yCb that day from clicking on the date in the metadata. A great way to see where your head was at during a day. pic.twitter.com/di0eChgtNe

(Upgrade) The Garden page now has a way better use of the React Calendar library. This makes it way more clear as to what day you're looking at. pic.twitter.com/IzmZVrPQTa

(New Feature) You can now delete records from the Grid page! Using `Delete Selected Record` (still bugged to do state reload, so you have to reload the page to see the propagated edit) pic.twitter.com/wJCTbhDq4j

(Feature Upgrade) The Chrome Extension is way easier to use now. One left click on any website and it automatically lands in yCb. The tradeoff is that aliasing becomes a lot more focused on the gardening workflow than the initial consumption. This can be a good thing, I suppose.. pic.twitter.com/ZKWpFnbrbk

So I decided to move to a more traditional "search engine" model. This will keep results and entry pages separate. This also makes it easier to lazy load/add some other features pic.twitter.com/Ab5UGjmYTS

Search page updates coming along nicely! pic.twitter.com/fW3kBQTFyA

Added Related Entries (automatically run /search on the data of an Entry page) and I'm liking the result, really drives up the usability of the Entry Page pic.twitter.com/dawJ1FUwRZ
