wildlife's Issues

User Dashboard

• today's birthdays
• upcoming events?
• current fish/bugs/sea to catch

Logging in message while loading

Shrink landing page card

On landing page and dashboard, we don't show much content. Should add a max width so the main card doesn't look so stretched out.
Also increase list of critters in carousel.

Friends page

shell with sections for:

• friends list
• add friend
• friend requests

Link preview

There is no preview image when linking from sites like Twitter

Add logging for errors

Case sensitive username creation/updates 4Head

Hover over card header to see full name

Users cannot update their hemisphere

landing page

Integrate Discord bot

Just get a basic prototype working to see if it can live on the same heroku dyno

Personality and Species filters for Villagers

Only show alert banner on mobile devices

Add alert banner for service outage

linking the discord would be a good idea
you a dev? feel free to reach out in "#code-stuff"

Delete friend

build not processing

Mobile collapse menu bar after selection

The menu bar should collapse on mobile as soon as a selection is made

Custom notes

Add a file with custom notes for different objects, such as:

• explanations for fake artwork
• additional notes for fish locations
• reactions (ex. must participate in yoga)
• achievements (ex. pirate gulliver not counting)

Adjust footer

Should be more inconspicuous (sp?)

• some sort of feedback (twitter)
• like it? github sponsor
• watch me build it

maybe a bigger footer with smaller links

Deleted friend requests are showing up in friend request response

the getfriendrequests endpoint should probably check if the friend request actually exists before returning it

Try the INTL API for listing villagers

Sounds like the INTL api can help with formatting lists into strings with an oxford comma, let's try it where we list out villagers on Reaction cards

Login cookie not being sent to server on iOS Chrome/FF

Migrate auth to backend

Migrate away from Auth0 React library and just use Auth0 API with Node/Express

Figure out upcoming events

Events:

• bug/fish competition
• season start/end
• nintendo direct
• kk slider
• etc

Could be manual?

• env variable update in netlify or heroku
• ongoing/ever-growing list that just keeps extending, reminder to update once a quarter

Auto?

• probably no APIs but worth checking around
• some sort of AC calendar

Account creation allows usernames that are taken

Implement MUI Navbar

This will add increased fluidity and mobile responsiveness in the navbar

https://mui.com/components/app-bar/
https://mui.com/components/app-bar/#ResponsiveAppBar.tsx

Add external link to fake art

Add an external link to a fake art comparison article for when the internal images aren't clear enough

only check for existing profile with username if user is changing their username

Currently we check to make sure the username is not taken, this check should only be made if the username has actually changed, otherwise other settings cannot be updated without changing the username

Achievement totals incorrect

Seems to only be totaling the number of achievements where at least 1 tier is complete

Should total the number of tiers complete across all achievements

Widen dashboard elements on mobile

Dashboard cards should be as wide as possible on mobile

Profile pages

Each user should have their own public profile page

• totals
• icon/username
• logged in? add friend

Art total remaining is incorrect

Remaining total for Art on the /totals page does not correctly match up with actual Art progress

This shows only 1 remaining when there are actually 6 left unchecked

See if item in friends' collections

Fix all header font issues

Fix all h1's and the like to just be regular p or div but with increased font size
I think bold causes issues too

Remove recent additions

Remove recent additions section

Friend requests cannot send

Auth0 currently using dev key

Auth0 is using a dev key and should be upgraded to a (probably rotating) production key

Create working client

Add "Available Now!" tag to cards

Add "Available Now!" and remove bells cost (or move somewhere else)

Ideas:

• transform bells cost into a badge with a symbol in the bottom right, add new tag to bottom left?
• completely remove the bells cost

Non-sequential achievements are never hidden

When the Hide Done switch is on, non-sequential achievements are never hidden even when they are 100% complete

Hide collected toggle

Toggle switch to hide things we've already collected

Add discord link to footer

Login cookie not being set in production

Users unable to login

Server is logging users in just fine, no session cookie is being sent with the profile request after redirect to the frontend

Month availability should reflect user's hemisphere

Currently the month availability of fish defaults to the northern hemisphere, this should be changed to reflect the user's saved hemisphere selection in account settings

Set your current villagers

As a user I'd like to set my current villagers on my profile in a dropdown similar to the profile picture one, then I can:

• see my friends' villagers (in the future)
• see a popup if one of their birthdays is coming up
• see if any of them can give me any of the reactions I'm missing

Calendar view for events

Add custom hook for toast notifs
