## Why
|
|
|
|
The current UI is functional but unstyled — default Tailwind colors, no visual
|
|
identity, no typography system. As features mature (route coloring, no-go areas,
|
|
multiplayer), the app needs a design language that matches the quality of the
|
|
interactions. Early testers find the tool powerful but visually generic.
|
|
|
|
A design exploration produced a "Trail Worn warmth + Nordic Precision lightness"
|
|
direction: warm off-whites, sage green accent, earthy overnight markers, Outfit
|
|
font, Geist Mono for stats. The reference mockup lives at
|
|
`mockup.html` (desktop + mobile views).
|
|
|
|
## What Changes
|
|
|
|
- **Design system**: CSS custom properties for colors, typography, spacing.
|
|
Tailwind config extended with project tokens. Outfit (body) + Geist Mono
|
|
(stats) fonts.
|
|
- **Topbar redesign**: Logo with mountain mark, segmented color mode toggle,
|
|
participant avatars with names, "+ Invite" button, Export GPX right-aligned
|
|
- **Sidebar redesign**: Route summary header (name, stats, duration), collapsible
|
|
day breakdown (aspirational, "SOON" badge), waypoints nested inside days,
|
|
overnight badges on stop waypoints, waypoint notes
|
|
- **Map marker styling**: Olive/dark numbered circles instead of blue, "NIGHT"
|
|
badges on overnight stops, day segment labels on route
|
|
- **Elevation chart**: Day dividers as dashed vertical lines, elevation gradient
|
|
matching route colors, km hover label, min/max elevation labels
|
|
- **Mobile responsive**: Bottom sheet pattern replacing hidden sidebar, simplified
|
|
header, swipeable tabs (Days/Waypoints/Notes)
|
|
