Nothing like forgetting to do a release for 2 months amirite? This will be another big one, and some of the changes were already live for a while. Sorry.

Also, if you are an experienced web developer - please get in contact with me. I'm actually losing my hair trying to fix a caching issue.

New features:

  • Added an option to replace new lines with spaces in custom text mode
  • PWA support (offline mode). You can now install the website as a progressive web app, meaning it can now be accessible when offline. An "Install" button will appear in the address bar for chromium-based browsers. After installing, you will be able to access all content (themes, languages, quotes) offline, that you have accessed at least once while online. This means that some content might fail to load if you are offline
  • Added public stats panel to the about page. You can now view the total time typing, total started and completed tests, and a histogram of all time 60 personal bests (based on the all time english leaderboard) (mrbrianevans)
  • Multi funbox. You can now activate multiple funboxes at the same time. Not all funboxes are compatible with each other, so go out there and find some fun and challenging combinations (Miodec, egorguslyan)
