Nine screens, drawn before they were built.

Every one states the endpoints it exercises in a small mono line. That is deliberate: it doubles as documentation, and a screen that cannot name its endpoint usually does not know what it is doing.

  1. Transfers

    The screen you will have open. A sidebar of status filters, categories and tags, a live speed graph, and the list itself in whichever of the three densities you chose. Everything on it comes from one polled endpoint.

  2. Easy, for people new to this

    Big cards, plain language, few numbers. "4 minutes left" rather than a rate and an ETA you have to combine yourself. It is a view rather than a lesser mode: the same data, the same actions, chosen during setup and switchable whenever.

  3. Appearance, applied live

    Eight accents and two modes. Changing either retints every surface in the window at once, because the neutrals are mixes of a base tone and the accent rather than fixed greys. Nothing reloads and nothing needs restarting.

    local, never round-trips

  4. Light, designed rather than inverted

    Both modes ship with all eight accents, and the tint strengths differ per mode so a surface reads at the same weight in either. Paper white with a soft tint, not charcoal with the numbers flipped.

  5. A first launch that asks

    Where files go, how fast to go, and what to seed, each sitting beside the sentence that says what it does. The stock client has never had this. All of it is changeable later, and none of it blocks you from skipping ahead.

    app/preferences

    A first launch that asks

All nine, and what each one talks to.

Five are captured above. The rest are listed rather than mocked up, because a page arguing that it shows the real thing should not illustrate itself with drawings.
