Beco app design with blue colors and modes
Create a sociaal media app named beco, use cold blue and cold dark blue as colors and dark mode/ light mode

Okay, let's start building the basic structure for your social media app "beco" with the specified colors and theme switching functionality.

This sets up the basic HTML structure, CSS with light/dark mode variables using the cold blue colors, and JavaScript to toggle between the themes. You can see a basic header, a placeholder feed area, and a footer. The "Toggle Theme" button will switch between light and dark modes.

make it start with a main page wher you can find sign in/ log in, and add sign in and login pages, when logged or signed in, make it take you to the main page where you can find things changed, add text saying Hello, (username)! and add sidebar with new post explore etc... add icons too and improve css

Okay, let's restructure the app to include login/signup pages and enhance the main application view after login. We'll also add a sidebar with icons and improve the CSS.

Now you have:

  1. index.html: The landing page with Login/Sign Up buttons.
  2. login.html: A dedicated login form.
  3. signup.html: A dedicated sign-up form.
  4. app.html: The main application page shown after login, featuring:
    • A sidebar with navigation (New Post, Home, Explore, Profile, Settings) and icons.
    • A "Hello, [username]!" message in the header.
    • A basic feed area.
    • Theme toggle and Logout buttons in the sidebar footer.
  5. style.css: Updated styles for all pages, including the new layouts, forms, sidebar, buttons, and improved theme support.
  6. script.js: Core JavaScript for theme switching and helper functions (isLoggedIn, handleAuthRedirect, applyInitialTheme).
  7. auth.js: JavaScript specifically for handling login/signup form submissions and redirection (simulation only).
  8. app.js: JavaScript specifically for the app.html page (displaying username, handling logout).

This structure provides a basic authentication flow simulation and a more organized application layout.

use google material icons instead, improve css, add new post gui and functionality, add home page and functionality, explore page and functionality, profile page and functionality, settings gui and functionality

Okay, this is a significant update! We'll integrate Google Material Icons, create the structure and basic functionality for the New Post, Home, Explore, Profile, and Settings sections, and refine the CSS further.

We'll use separate HTML files for each main section (Home/Feed, Explore, Profile, Settings) for simplicity, all sharing the same sidebar structure and CSS.

1. Add Material Icons Link & Update HTML:

First, we need to link the Material Icons stylesheet in the <head> of all relevant HTML files (app.html, and the new explore.html, profile.html, settings.html).

2. Create New HTML Files:

We'll create explore.html, profile.html, and settings.html, using app.html as a template. app.html will now function primarily as the "Home" feed page.

3. Implement New Post Modal:

Add a modal structure to app.html (and potentially make it reusable if needed elsewhere).

4. Update CSS:

Refine styles, add styles for icons, the modal, and the new page layouts.

5. Update JavaScript:

  • Modify app.js to handle the feed, post creation, and the modal.
  • Create explore.js, profile.js, settings.js for page-specific logic.
  • Use localStorage to store and retrieve posts.

Let's implement these changes.

This comprehensive update includes:

  1. Material Icons: Integrated via Google Fonts and used in the sidebar and buttons.
  2. Improved CSS: Refined styles across all pages, including layout, typography, buttons, forms, posts, modal, and theme-specific adjustments. Added styles for profile headers, explore grids, and settings sections.
  3. New HTML Pages: Created explore.html, profile.html, and settings.html with the standard app layout (sidebar + main content). app.html now serves as the Home/Feed page.
  4. New Post Functionality:
    • A modal (#new-post-modal) is added to all app pages (triggered by sidebar link).
    • app.js handles the modal display and form submission.
    • Posts are created using addPost (in script.js) which saves them to localStorage with a timestamp and username.
  5. Home Page (app.html):
    • app.js loads posts from localStorage using getAllPosts and displays them using createPostElement (both in script.js).
  6. Profile Page (profile.html):
    • Displays the user's avatar (placeholder) and username.
    • profile.js loads and displays only the posts made by the currently logged-in user from localStorage.
    • Includes a non-functional "Edit Profile" button.
  7. Explore Page (explore.html):
    • Basic structure and placeholder content. explore.js is included but has minimal functionality for now.
  8. Settings Page (settings.html):
    • Displays username and placeholder account settings.
    • Theme toggle and Logout buttons are functional (handled by script.js).
    • Placeholder buttons for changing email/password.
  9. JavaScript Refactoring:
    • Shared functions (theme, auth, logout, modal, post management, user display) are centralized in script.js.
    • Page-specific logic is placed in app.js, explore.js, profile.js, settings.js.
    • Uses localStorage (beco-posts) to persist posts across sessions.

You now have a much more functional foundation for the Beco social media app.*
