A Videos page, the point glyphs in every figure, and the layers anatomy rebuilt
The figures now draw the rule the canvas follows: a solid disc is free, a ring
with a dot slides along its host, a hollow ring is calculated. The glider's
green halo and the intersection's crosshair are gone, since the glyph says it.
A circle's divisions are drawn as sliders, a segment's and an arc's as hollow,
which is the distinction the code makes. The struck arc now ends in open space,
because ending both ends on crossings implied an arc has to.
Constructed geometry is green rather than accent blue on the lines, circles,
ellipses, arcs, primer and rectangle figures. Blue means POINT in the data-types
legend, and a blue constructed line beside dark points told the reader the
wrong thing.
The layers panel anatomy is rebuilt. Its object names come from the app's own
prefix table, so the figure and the page above it finally agree: Grp1, Cir1,
Seg1. Its thirteen callouts are legible again after the canvas was trimmed to
what is actually drawn.
New page: Videos. The tutorial playlist with each video matched to the pages it
covers, and the two tutorial files linked under the videos they belong to.
Linked from Home as the first thing a newcomer sees, from the sidebar, from the
footer, and through the Getting Started chain.
Alt text follows the figures on points, lines, point on object, selection and
both divide pages. The divide alt now distinguishes a circle's divisions, which
you can turn, from a segment's, which you cannot.
A Credits page for the open-source work Locus is built on
Sixteen libraries, grouped from what the reader touches to what holds the app
up, a sentence each on what Locus actually uses them for, their authors and
their licenses. The legal inventory stays in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md; this is the
page a person would want to read.
Checked against the lockfiles rather than the notes: every library is present at
the version claimed, the licenses match, and each link matches the repository
the package itself declares.
Reachable from the sidebar under Reference, the footer row, Home, and the end of
the Previous/Next chain after the Glossary.
Keyboard characters only: sweep all 245 English pages
Every character that cannot be typed on a US keyboard is replaced. Em dash
becomes a colon where it introduces a list bullet's description, matching how
the Italian pages already read, and a spaced hyphen everywhere else. The
Previous/Next angle quotes and the breadcrumb arrows become < and >, the menu
path triangle becomes >, arrows spell out as -> and <->, the ellipsis becomes
three periods, and the en dash and minus sign become a hyphen.
Two characters do two jobs and are split by context. The middle dot is a pipe
where it separates links and " x " where it is multiplication, as in Min + k x
Step and Radius x cos(Angle). The degree sign becomes " degrees" after a digit
and is dropped after a letter, where it was a stale reference to the Rotate
node's Angle socket, which no longer carries one.
Also: superscript two becomes 2, the square root sign becomes sqrt, the
division sign becomes /, less-than-or-equal becomes <=, and the decorative
emoji in Home, the footer, the sidebar, community and licensing are removed.
Kept: the command, shift and option key glyphs in the shortcut lines, and the
Greek letters used as math notation.
Verified: no file changed its line count, and no markdown table row changed its
cell count.
Docs: macOS+Windows support, and click-to-enlarge on diagram images

Feature Community & support across Getting Started and Home
Move the Community page up the sidebar to sit under Welcome; add it to the Related section of every Getting Started page (Welcome, Installing, Licensing, Core concepts, Interface tour, First pattern); and feature it on the Home page (New here list + a Community & support section routing Discussions / Issues / licensing email). Nav regenerated.
