Thomas Hallock	4f4c73577a	feat(levels): add animated calculation effect to abacus display Add visual animation to the levels page abacus that simulates ongoing calculations by randomly changing 1-3 adjacent columns every 0.5 seconds. This creates a more dynamic, engaging visual that shows the abacus "working" as users explore different skill levels. Changes: - Add animatedDigits state to track current digit values - Initialize random digits when level changes - Add interval effect to update 1-3 adjacent columns every 500ms - Use animated digits instead of static pattern for AbacusReact display - Adjacent column grouping simulates realistic calculation movements 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:40:42 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	477a0b367e	feat(levels): add hover tracking to slider for real-time level preview Added mouse hover functionality to the slider so it responds as you move your mouse across the track: - Calculates hover position based on mouse X coordinate - Updates slider value in real-time as you hover - Tracks hover state with isHovering flag - Slider thumb follows your mouse smoothly with CSS transitions Now you can explore levels by simply hovering across the slider track, in addition to clicking emoji tick marks or dragging the thumb. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:34:25 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	07c783a794	feat(levels): make emoji tick marks clickable and remove redundant UI - Added click handlers to emoji tick marks so you can click any emoji to jump to that level - Added hover effects (opacity 0.6) and pointer cursor to tick marks - Enabled pointer events on tick marks (parent has pointerEvents: 'none') - Removed redundant "Drag or click the beads" instruction text - Removed duplicated level info text below slider (info now only shows on slider thumb) This simplifies the UI and makes the slider more interactive - you can now click, drag, or hover over any emoji to explore different levels. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:31:40 -05:00
Thomas Hallock	ca8cef1c36	fix(levels): add smooth CSS transitions for slider thumb movement Fixed slider transitions to be smooth but responsive: - Balanced animation speeds (scale: tension 350/friction 45, emoji: 120ms) - Added 0.3s CSS transition specifically for thumb position (left property) - Removed complex React Spring state management that wasn't triggering re-renders - Simplified to basic state management with CSS handling the smoothness This gives a nice gliding effect when clicking between levels while keeping the interface snappy and responsive. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:31:40 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	1e5467fad4	perf(levels): speed up slider animations for more responsive feel Reduced animation timing across the board to make the slider feel snappier: - Scale factor animation: increased tension (280→400), reduced friction (60→40) - Emoji cross-fade: reduced duration from 150ms to 80ms - Thumb hover: reduced transition from 0.2s to 0.1s with ease-out This addresses user feedback that the slider felt sluggish. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:23:46 -05:00
