Progress and Update on the Desktop App and new Platform (Patreon)
Content
It pleases me to show you some actual work in progress for the new automated platform and desktop/mobile apps, this time towards something concrete.
PS: I request and recommend all our donators to join our discord so they can get early access to the Beta of the app and provide their valuable feedback and suggestions.

The home screen showing new larger tile format, with titles at bottom
Anime Details or anime page when you select a anime from home or any of the screens, it has most of the necessary details about the anime. We will later add related and similar anime below the download/files block and creators, currently trying to get a working Beta of the app ready.
Unfortunately, unlike AOT, all files are now stored and categorized under a single folder of the anime only, as such there won't be separate posts or pages or blocks for 720p or 1080p, instead all files for that anime will be listed together, sorted alphabatically so first eps on top, latest/last eps on bottom.
Further, we have made it so the app reads the filename and detects if there is 1080p tag in it, if it is, it shows that Yellow/Gold highlight to let you know if the file is 1080p or plain HQ (which is anything that is not 1080p, so can be 720p or lower)
Furthermore, to make it look more appealing, we only show a shorter form of the filename in the list, but when you hover it, you will see fullname of the file so you can check for yourself which subgroup it is, its quality and other info
Similarly we also show you the date it was last modified or updated in the DB, which can let users know if a reported file or broken file or file with problems was recently updated
Let me know your thoughts and again, please join us on discord to see and be part of the development of the new app-based platform.
