@ -72,4 +72,5 @@ The v1 client presents one reader screen:
- The reader can tag bookmarks and sites. A tag exists only while something carries it, so adding a tag and making one are the same act; `mews:tags` lists every tag in use and what carries it, and following a tag narrows the list it belongs to. There is no renaming and no empty tag.
- Each library page carries a search box that narrows it by title or address, and each row carries its own actions: remove a bookmark, leave a site or check it now, forget a page. History lists one row per address, headed by the most recent visit, rather than repeating a page once per visit. Clearing history takes a second step on a page the reader can simply leave, since it cannot be undone.
- A change is a link too: following `mews:do/<verb>` applies it and rerenders the page in place without adding a history entry. Only a link followed from one of the client's own pages is honored, so a fetched page cannot clear history or change a setting on the reader's behalf (spec 8.1). A form on one of these pages is routed the same way rather than sent to the network.
- Fonts are bundled, and v1 ships Atkinson Hyperlegible. Adding a font is one TTF in `app/assets/fonts/`, one `fonts` entry in `app/pubspec.yaml`, one option on the settings page, and one label in `app/locales/en-US/main.ftl`.
- Our own pages are built from the same blocks as a page but are interface, not an article, so the renderer lays them out differently: wider before they stop growing, denser, rows divided by a line instead of bulleted, section headings quieter, a note under a row set smaller and dimmer, links carried by weight rather than an underline, and a one-field form on a single line.
- Fonts are bundled, and v1 ships Atkinson Hyperlegible. The reader's typeface applies to the whole app, chrome included, so the address bar and the page below it are one face. Adding a font is one TTF in `app/assets/fonts/`, one `fonts` entry in `app/pubspec.yaml`, one option on the settings page, and one label in `app/locales/en-US/main.ftl`.
