The first round of post-launch polish: giving the results screen more personality, adding a proper stats dashboard, and cleaning up a handful of things that were quietly bugging me.
- The rank reveal got some animation — a mint-to-purple background transition, a spring-bounce on the rank emoji, and the result card children fading in staggered. Felt much more satisfying than just a result appearing. Each test also got rank-aware taunts, so the copy you see after finishing changes depending on how well (or badly) you did.
- Share text got the same treatment — braggy if you scored well, self-deprecating if you didn't. Small thing but it makes shares feel less generic.
- A personal stats dashboard went in: last 10 scores per test stored in the browser, trend lines, a "My Stats" nav link that dims itself if there's no data yet. Claude suggested using localStorage for this rather than any kind of backend, which avoided building any account system. Stats page at /stats.html.
- The stats strip on the homepage — the row of your recent scores above the test cards — started off only showing when you had data. Changed it to always be visible, with no-data cards dimmed and linking directly to the relevant test. Less of a ghost feature.
- A Windows rendering bug where emoji icons showed as grey boxes got fixed by adding a proper font stack. Not glamorous but important — Windows is probably a big chunk of the audience for a click speed test site.
- A few other things that got done in the same stretch: the logo colour changed so only "Click" is highlighted in coral (rest is charcoal), and a mouse SVG favicon went in to replace the browser default.
