Thomas Hallock	6f89d9e274	fix(levels): increase animation speed to 10ms for 10th Dan Update animation speed progression to be more dramatic, reaching 10ms (0.01 seconds) at 10th Dan instead of 50ms. Speed progression now runs from 1st Dan to 10th Dan (not from Pre-1st Dan). Speed progression: - Kyu levels: 500ms (constant) - Pre-1st Dan: 500ms - 1st Dan: 500ms - 10th Dan: 10ms - Linear interpolation between 1st and 10th Dan This creates an extremely fast blur effect at the highest mastery level, better representing the extraordinary calculation speed expected at 10th Dan. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:58:59 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	9dff3e7b7b	feat(levels): progressive animation speed for Dan levels Increase abacus animation speed as Dan levels advance, creating a visual representation of increasing mastery and speed. Animation interval changes from 500ms at Kyu/Pre-1st Dan to 50ms at 10th Dan. Changes: - Kyu levels (10th-1st): constant 500ms animation interval - Dan levels: linear interpolation from 500ms to 50ms - Pre-1st Dan (index 10): 500ms - 10th Dan (index 20): 50ms - Effect now depends on currentIndex to update interval dynamically - Add getAnimationInterval() helper for calculating speed This creates a dramatic visual effect where the abacus becomes a blur of movement at the highest mastery levels. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:57:31 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	1e90d6c620	fix(levels): improve slider tick spacing to use full width Remove horizontal padding (90px) from tick marks container to allow emoji tick marks to spread across the full width of the slider. This provides better visual distribution of level indicators. Changes: - Change px from '90px' to '0' on tick marks container - Tick marks now use space-between across full slider width 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:52:56 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	41eaed24fc	feat(levels): add auto-advance slider with hover pause Add automatic slider progression that advances one level every 3 seconds, cycling back to the start when reaching the end. The auto-advance pauses when the user's mouse is over the pane containing the slider and abacus, allowing for manual exploration without interruption. Changes: - Add isPaneHovered state to track mouse position - Add auto-advance effect with 3-second interval - Pause auto-advance when isPaneHovered is true - Add onMouseEnter/onMouseLeave handlers to pane container - Cycle position back to 0 when reaching the last level 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:48:22 -05:00

Thomas Hallock	e5ffe3927e	fix(levels): adjust slider text positioning to prevent emoji overlap Move level text further down (bottom: -80px) to prevent it from overlapping with emoji characters. Previous positioning (-60px) was too close for Dan level emojis, causing the text to cover the characters' chins. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2025-10-20 10:45:09 -05:00

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
