6th October 2023: version 1.0 (re-launch)
A whole new codebase. This new version is a little more up-to-date, introducing newer and faster-loading image formats (AVIF and WebP), and discarding JavaScript libraries since I only ever used 1% of their functionality anyway. It uses a slimmer and more up-to-date MVC framework as well.
