# Changelog

All notable changes to the New Optic website will be documented in this file.

## Unreleased

### Changed

- Added a New York-style display font stack for large latin headings while keeping SF-style UI text.
- Switched the latin typography to an SF Pro-style system font stack for a more Apple-like feel.
- Removed the desktop liquid glass WebGL layer from navbar and CTA controls so text remains readable and glass surfaces do not show dark rendering artifacts while scrolling.
- Replaced the mobile hamburger dropdown with a fast, solid menu animation without bounce or stretch effects.
- Kept the language switcher visible in the mobile top navigation bar.
- Added cursor-reactive stretch motion to desktop nav links and matched the glossy dark WhatsApp CTA style on mobile.
- Corrected the French 2004 trust wording to use "depuis" without "autour de".
- Tightened mobile sizing for the WhatsApp nav pill and hero trust badge.
- Balanced mobile navbar controls so the language switcher, WhatsApp CTA, and menu do not bunch up on the right.
- Reduced the mobile gap between the reputation section and contact panel.
- Let the mobile WhatsApp nav CTA stretch into available navbar space.
- Restored mobile glass blur and premium highlight layers instead of flattening glass surfaces.
- Added a dedicated stronger blur treatment for the mobile top navigation bar.

### Changed

- Fixed desktop hero image visibility by removing liquid glass from image-bearing containers, while applying liquid glass to navbar/buttons and adding a stronger CSS glass fallback.
- Re-enabled liquid glass on desktop PCs using user-agent and pointer capability detection, while keeping it disabled on phones and tablets.
- Changed trust stat label accent from blue to a softer neutral white tone.
- Refined contact and trust UI: stat labels are now accented above values, French WhatsApp CTA says "Discuter sur WhatsApp", hours information is emphasized, and mobile navbar shows WhatsApp without opening the menu.
- Updated customer-corrected business facts: New Optic is active since around 2004, does not offer eye exams, and offers contact lenses plus colored contact lenses.
- Optimized mobile rendering by disabling heavy blur, fixed backgrounds, ambient animations, and WebGL glass below desktop widths.
- Changed mobile CSS to reference only the compressed mobile background by default, keeping the full PNG desktop-only.
- Added mobile `content-visibility` containment so offscreen sections do less rendering work on low-end devices.
- Removed the WebGL liquid glass layer from the contact QR panel so the QR code renders immediately and remains scannable.
- Reworked collection cards from abstract placeholders to image-led product cards.
- Improved dark-section heading contrast.
