- website wordmarks (logo.png/logo-dark.png) drop the black/white frame:
the girl alone on transparency, black for light navbar / white for dark
(docusaurus srcDark stays)
- BrandMark marks are now the app-icon squircle itself (transparent
corners, 824px safe-zone composition) instead of plain tiles; the
components no longer paint a tile/rounding
- generated icon outputs are NOT committed anymore: all 35 targets are
gitignored and regenerated on demand by the consuming pipelines via the
new scripts/generate-icons.mjs (website prebuild, desktop prebuild+dev,
installer prebuild, web prebuild)
- freshness lane switched from byte-compare to structural verification
(sizes, squircle corner transparency, ICO frame sets via header parse) —
no more windows/ubuntu byte drift dance
- marks saved as 8-bit palette PNGs (FASTOCTREE quantize keeps per-index
alpha tRNS -> 2.5KB, AA edges preserved); compose_svg renders in the
background's native space so resvg scales per output size
The icon pipeline now composes all 35 targets from two source axes instead
of a single hand-edited master:
- girl art: assets/nous-girl-black.svg / nous-girl-white.svg (brand kit)
- backgrounds: assets/backgrounds/ (squircle light/dark, logo frames,
BrandMark tiles)
assets/icon-master*.svg are generated artifacts (squircle background + girl
nested in the 824px HIG content safe zone). New dark-appearance artifacts
(icon-dark.* containers, appx *-dark logos, logo-dark wordmark,
nous-logo-dark) land everywhere a surface consumes them: docusaurus navbar
srcDark, BrandMark dark tile (keyed off renderedMode).
nous-girl.jpg jpgs are replaced by lossless 8-bit palette PNGs saved with
compress_level=0 (stored deflate blocks, byte-identical across hosts for
the CI freshness lane).
Includes the temp linux-truth harvest step in icons-freshness-check.yml so
the committed compressed bytes can be refreshed from the ubuntu regen.
- Updated the README to include a new banner image and changed the title emoji from 🦋 to ⚕.
- Modified various CLI outputs and scripts to reflect the new branding, ensuring consistency in the use of the ⚕ emoji.
- Added a new banner image asset for enhanced visual appeal during installation and setup processes.
