Completely rework Auxio's iconography based on the new material symbols
icon set.
This does the following:
1. Switches the sharp + filled icon style to an outlined + round icon
style.
2. Removes 32dp icons from everywhere except the playback panel.
This does not:
1. Actually handle optical sizes right. This is going to take some more
work to make it harmonious with the current UI.
2. Update margins in some places to be harmonious with the new icons.
This is also going to take some more work to do properly.
Use body typography in more places, reworking the letter spacing as to
make it more pleasent to use with the inter typeface.
This should hopefully be the last time I fret over typography.
Everything should line up in the way desired by M3.
Add a CHANGELOG document that keeps track of the past and current
release notes.
Making all of our releases rely on GitHub to keep track of them is not
really a good idea, so this document serves as a record of past release
changelogs just as a pre-caution. It also allows a live preview of the
next version whenever something is changed.
Modify the music loader to use the normal artist name when using song
titles while still retaining album artist functionality.
Oftentimes music files will be tagged as to use the artist tag to
specify performers, collaborators, and others, and then use the album
artist tag to group them up into a single artist. Previously, Auxio
would only use the album artist tag, which flattened the collaborator
information out for consistency. Resolve this by implementing a sort
of "resolved artist name" for songs that is used in the UI and nowhere
else. This seems to work well, but at the same time further ruins the
API surface for handling music objects. An acceptable price to pay
for a better UX.
Migrate to the native roboto typeface on body elements.
Migrating to the native typeface saves on APK size, contributes to a
more native look and feel, and create a more compact UI for smaller
devices. Inter Semibold remains as the "Flair" type that distinguishes
Auxio from other apps.
I want to hold off with this migration actually. I feel like it's too
jarring of a change to be included as of right now.
This reverts commit 50170f202e.
Dumpster Inter in favor of Roboto. This is mostly for three reasons:
1. Reduces the insane typography setup that Auxio uses
2. Reduces total app size since .ttf files are pretty large and the
dynamic fonts feature was proprietary.
3. Creates a more cohesive look and feel given that nearly every
android app also uses Roboto.
Update the image behavior for the following:
1. Use ic_album as the default image for songs and albums this just
looks beter in general.
2. Use a special default drawable for the widget so that it doesn't
look as strange.
3. Generally update the loading process throughout the app
Improve typography (again) by isolating my weird non-standard text
styles and moving all font usage to the text styles, which allows
me to eliminate a lot of excessive font usages.
Migrate to 100% Material3 text styling. I had to basically ignore the
intended styling here just to get a sensible design here, which is
"bad" but I do what I want. The only usage of MaterialComponents left
in the project now is the dialog since the new dialog style the worst
thing ever.
Merge the fast scroller back into Auxio once again, albeit this time
it's AFS instead of IndicatorFastScroll. This not only slims down the
implementation but also allows me to stop the scroller from appearing
every time the home view is recreated. All modifications were noted
and attribution is included to abide by the Apache 2.0 license.
Finally add tab customization. This implementation is a
bit ugly, but I had to futureproof it for playlists and I'm
planning to clean up a lot of the duplicate code across the app.
This addition notably allows a default tab to be set, which is
something that was widely requested in #12. This UI rework finally
allows it to be added.
Actually bother to add license boilerplate. Even though I've written
the entirety of Auxio, the boilerplate will be under "Auxio Project"
instead, as I don't want to share my real name.
Refactor styles again, this time trying to seperate the more
layout-specific attributes so that layouts become more re-usable.
This also updates the naming conventions of styles.
The plans for widgets have changed somewhat. Instead of 4 or so
variants, there will instead be one unified widget that chooses
different layouts depending on its size. The first one added is the
full widget, which shows more controls as long as theres enough
space.
Modify the minimal wdiget so that it can work on Android 11 and below.
Was not actually that hard, mostly changing layouts around all things
considered. This also splits up the default view and the main widget
views, which makes managing UI state much easier.
