Changelog
Latest updates to SmartNETWORK
Reliability Sprint 7
- Every project now has a canonical URL — unicode-only names get website-derived slugs (49 previously dead-end links fixed)
- Typo-tolerant search now catches swapped letters ("unizwpa" finds Uniswap)
- RSS feed loads ~10× faster (parallel fetches + daily cache)
- Unfiltered API calls return a lightweight directory summary instead of parsing the full search index
Fixes, Icons & Palette
- Fixed the "> > > > > >" glyph artifact on server-rendered pages (stray tag closers in the head patcher)
- All emoji replaced with a professional inline SVG icon set
- Palette hardened to pure blue / red / magenta and their intermediaries — all pink hues removed
- Project page fully responsive on phones (grid overflow root cause fixed)
- Light theme red/magenta tuned to WCAG AA contrast; live-widget snippet in API docs corrected
