    contentfeature

    Path 7 (AI Agents) + News + Resources + Tools + Compare + SEO

    Major content + SEO expansion: 7th learning path AI Agents (10 lessons on ReAct, tool use, planning, MCP, memory, multi-agent, safety, evaluation). New sections: /news (curated AI industry news with NewsArticle JSON-LD), /resources (~30 curated papers/books/blogs/talks), /tools (40+ AI tools categorized — APIs, vector DBs, agent frameworks, eval, serving), /compare/models (frontier models side-by-side: pricing, context, capabilities, when-to-use). SEO: llms.txt at the root for AI/LLM crawlers, LearningResource JSON-LD on every lesson, breadcrumb schemas across new pages, sitemap covering all of it. Footer reorganized into 5 columns (Learn / Careers / Discover / Company / Legal). Cmd+K palette indexes 250+ targets now.

    featurefix

    Lesson outline sidebar + 3 production bugs fixed via tests

    On xl+ screens the lesson runner now shows a jumpable beat outline in the right margin (icon per kind, completion check, IntersectionObserver-driven active highlight). Vitest suite grew to 58 tests with a data-integrity check (every path → real lessons, every career → real paths, every glossary cross-link resolves). Caught and fixed three production bugs: getProgress() was returning the mutable DEFAULT_PROGRESS constant (state leakage); gradeCard could grow interval past Date's representable range on long easy streaks (capped at 365d); pushRecent couldn't recover from a corrupt JSON blob.

  3. Apr 30, 2026

    content

    /skills index + 2 more blog articles

    New /skills page maps every skill across the catalog to which careers want it (with weight bars in each role's accent gradient) and which paths cover it. Two new launch articles: "Eval discipline" and "When NOT to build a RAG". Five blog posts total now.

  4. Apr 30, 2026

    contentfeature

    Blog with 3 launch articles + RSS feed

    /blog index, prerendered detail pages with BlogPosting JSON-LD, three substantive articles ('From prompt to production', 'Why "Duolingo for AI" doesn't work', 'Six AI careers in 2026'), and an RSS 2.0 feed at /blog/feed.xml auto-discovered via the layout's <link rel="alternate">. Hero gets a 4-up stats strip (62 lessons · 6 paths · 10 careers · 50 glossary terms).

  5. Apr 30, 2026

    securityperf

    Security headers, route-level loading, recent + OG polish

    Strict CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy on every response. Route-level loading.tsx for /app/* so the dashboard skeleton paints before any chunk loads. Per-career dynamic OG images. "Recently viewed" lessons widget on the dashboard.

  6. Apr 30, 2026

    feature

    Real Python in 5 more lessons

    Pyodide-powered python-run beats added to aef-02 (vectors), aef-03 (matrices → real linear-layer forward pass), aef-04 (softmax with temperature), aef-05 (gradient descent on a 2D paraboloid), and rag-02 (batched cosine similarity). Each one sits next to the JS demo so you see the same idea in both languages.

  7. Apr 30, 2026

    feature

    SVG streak ring on the dashboard

    Replaces the plain streak tile. The ring closes around your day's progress, recolors based on state (emerald = done today, amber = open, gray = no streak), and shows current count + a Flame in the center.

  8. Apr 30, 2026

    featurefix

    Keyboard polish — Enter advances, focus restores after modals

    Pressing Enter in the lesson runner now advances when no input is focused (skips when typing in textareas, prompt challenges, or Mira). All three modals (Mira, Notes, Cmd+K) now restore focus to whatever was focused before the modal opened — a real WCAG 2.4.3 compliance fix.

  9. Apr 29, 2026

    featureperf

    Production hardening — error boundary, toast system, structured error logging

    Branded app/error.tsx for any uncaught render error (logs to PostHog and console). Tiny pub/sub toast store with success / error / info / warning helpers. Lesson completion now fires a celebration toast in addition to the XP animation. Replaced inline alert() calls.

  10. Apr 29, 2026

    featureperf

    Service worker + offline reading

    Real offline support — lessons you've opened on a device read without a connection. Cache-first on build assets, network-first with cache fallback for HTML, untouched on /api and /auth. /offline page + an offline indicator pill at the bottom when navigator.onLine flips.

  11. Apr 29, 2026

    feature

    Cmd+K command palette

    137 jump-to-anywhere targets across pages, paths, careers, lessons, and glossary terms. Lazy-loaded index keeps marketing-page bundles at 111 kB. Keyboard nav (↑↓ Enter Esc); mouse hover updates active row.

  12. Apr 29, 2026

    feature

    Per-lesson notes + notes index

    Floating "Notes" button in every lesson runner — auto-saves to localStorage, debounced. New /app/notes page lists every lesson you've annotated.

  13. Apr 28, 2026

    content

    10 careers with a filterable explorer

    Catalog grew from 6 → 10. Added AI Product Manager, Data Engineer (AI-focused), Computer Vision Engineer, AI Solutions Architect. /careers is now searchable by role or skill, filterable by demand, sortable by salary or A-Z.

  14. Apr 28, 2026

    fix

    Mobile responsive pass

    Skill tree falls back to a vertical list on phones (React Flow doesn't fit). Hero, sections, lesson runner, Mira button all tightened. Bottom-bar padding fixed so the last beat isn't cropped on iOS.

  15. Apr 28, 2026

    feature

    Free during launch

    Subscription pricing UI removed everywhere. Mira tutor: unlimited and free. Stripe code kept in the repo for re-enable.

  19. Apr 28, 2026

    feature

    Cross-device progress sync

    Local-first: localStorage stays the source of truth. When authenticated, debounced upserts to Supabase (profiles, user_stats, lesson_progress, review_cards). Pulls remote → local on sign-in.

  20. Apr 28, 2026

    feature
