  • FixEscape units before SVG text rendering
    • —Chart units supplied by users or AI-generated content were
    • —concatenated directly into SVG text nodes without XML escaping.

    • —special characters such as <, >, or &, causing chart rendering
    • —failures and export issues in PDF/PPTX workflows.

12 changes
  • FixDistinguish generated speaker notes; declutter editor toolbar
    • —Add Deck.speakerNotesGenerated flag, set only when notes are created
    • —via the Generate notes button. The editor now shows "Generate notes"

v1.5

June 5, 2026
5 changes
  • FixCorrect mix() blend factor from (1-t) to t in export route
    • —The mix() function in the PPTX export route was using (1 - t) instead of t
    • —for color interpolation, which inverted the blend direction. This affected
    • —column header labels (mix(accent, bg, 0.12) → 88% toward bg instead of 12%)
    • —and table row stripes (mix(accent, bg, 0.06) → barely visible).
    • —The same function in lib/charts.ts correctly uses t directly. This fix
    • —aligns the export route with the correct implementation.

    • —before the first export (persisted via localStorage); exports are free
    • —Dashboard: drop paid/unlock state and filter chips; add a polished
    • —"EZdeck is now free" popup (session dismiss + "don't show again" opt-out),

    1ac3843 · izhan0102Details
  • UpdateHarden the rate limiter from PR #39
    • —Builds on the merged IP rate limiting (#6):
    • —Per-route buckets keyed `route:ip` so the editor's frequent edit-slide
    • —and export calls no longer share one budget with heavy generate calls.
    • —Limits: generate 8/min, edit-slide 30/min, export 20/min.
    • —clientIp() parses x-forwarded-for as a comma list (first entry = real
    • —client) with an x-real-ip fallback.

14 changes
  • NewSupport/donate flow, prompt + dashboard polish, quota popup
    • —Support the project:
    • —New components/SupportDialog.tsx: a "Support EZdeck" flow. Donate opens
    • —razorpay.me/@muhammadizhan in a new tab, then asks "Did you donate?" —
    • —Yes shows a warm thank-you, No closes. Portal-rendered to body so it
    • —never anchors to the blurred navbar. Added to the nav (contained pill)
    • —and the footer.

  • NewAdd live changelog page + app follows theme + fixes
    • —Changelog (new):
    • —lib/changelog.ts fetches the repo's PUBLIC GitHub commit history (no
    • —API key/SDK), classifies each commit (New/Fix/Improved/Docs/Merged),
    • —strips conventional-commit prefixes, pulls body bullets, and groups by
    • —day into ascending versions (oldest day = v1.0, newest = highest).
    • —ISR-cached 1h so it never trips the 60/hr public rate limit; returns

    0dc9d4b · izhan0102Details
  • FixRe-throw AuthError so 403 (email not verified) reaches the client
    • —PR #23 added the email_verified check inside the try block, so the catch re-wrapped its 403 as a 401 with message 'Token verification failed (Email not verified)'. The client only redirects on a literal 403, so the bounce to /verify-email never fired. Re-throw AuthError as-is and only wrap genuine SDK verification failures.
