added
- on time habit type: log a day as on time, late, or missed, with an optional target time shown as guidance. on time earns full credit, late earns half and breaks the streak
- penalty habit type for things to avoid: always on, every day. a clean day earns the habit's points and grows a days-clean streak, a slip costs the miss penalty
- habit heatmaps are real calendars now: month blocks with day numbers replace the compact grid, scrolled to the current month
- a loading screen with the rising logo covers startup until the app is ready
changed
- saving a day returns to the progress page. the visible Ctrl+Enter hint is gone, the shortcut still works
- text outside inputs and copy-worthy paths (file locations, backup names) can no longer be selected
- the windows start menu and installed-apps entries are capitalized "Ascend" so windows search finds the app. folders, file names, and everything inside the app stay lowercase
- the app icon fills its frame instead of sitting inside transparent padding
- the database upgrades itself on first launch to support the new habit types; json exports from older versions still import
install
download ascend-0.5.0-setup.exe below and run it. windows may show a smartscreen prompt for an unsigned installer: choose "more info", then "run anyway".
