Spün 365 - Day 9: Finally Fixed It

Day 9 was fun.

I finally fixed the UI bug that had been annoying me for the past few days. 😭

The problem was that somewhere along the way, black and white had gotten mixed up.

Button text that was supposed to be black was rendering as white, and the Avatar Builder was having a complete meltdown whenever I selected black.

Sometimes it would render as white.

Sometimes it wouldn’t render at all.

I was soooooooo pissed. 🤧

I tried reverting updates.

I tried working backwards from versions where everything had been fine.

Nothing.

The problem just refused to disappear.

Turns out, it wasn’t even my code

Eventually, I figured out what was happening.

It was a browser rendering issue.

My phone is currently using a dark theme, and the browser was trying to interfere with the UI’s colors by adapting parts of the page to brighter colors.

Which, obviously, was not what I wanted.

So after all that debugging, the culprit turned out to be the browser trying to be helpful.

Thanks. 😐

Thankfully, it’s finally resolved.

Everything is rendering properly again, and I can now comfortably get back to polishing Spün Auth without having to worry about black randomly becoming white.

Back to polishing

This was one of those bugs that was incredibly frustrating while I was dealing with it, but feels incredibly satisfying once it’s gone.

Now I can finally continue with the UI polish and start getting Spün Auth closer to where I want it.

Also, apologies for the late update.

I had a lot going on yesterday and completely forgot to update you guys. I wasn’t even online for most of the day.

Please bear with me. 🥲

Anyway…

9 days down.

356 days remaining.

Back to work. 🤝
