Site updates

v0.5 · 7 November 2026#

• Rebuilt the top of the homepage as a personal introduction: name, role, short bio, interests and contact links, visible at every screen width.
• Redesigned the site: self-hosted Source Serif 4 and Inter, higher link contrast, whole-card click targets, a shorter banner, consistent panels, tables and buttons, and a readable line length in articles.
• Added the Embodied RSI research review in English and Chinese.
• Recorded the executed 3DGS lab with three actual Unity views, a Chinese version, and restored background on Gaussian properties, the slide deck and the original tools.
• Rechecked HW2 primary sources and updated the HCI course and lab status.
• Removed two old redirect files that could replace the Coursework and HCI pages with a redirect to themselves.

v0.4 · 4 October 2026#

• Added the completed Station Rescue: M-07 A1.0 project, with actual Windows screenshots, a downloadable game and public source.
• Added a separate Unity 101 final-project journal connecting requirements, development, validation and the open-airlock post-mortem.
• Added authored Chinese equivalents and exact language switching for both new pages, plus illustrated entries in Projects, Coursework and the homepage.
• Updated the older Unity setup journal to link its later first-project verification. The 3DGS exercise keeps its own progress record.
• Preserved the pre-change local source and build, and prepared the generated website for manual GitHub Desktop publication.

v0.3 · 3 October 2026#

• Added five illustrated readings: two papers, a vendor report and two firsthand accounts, with five credited original illustrations.
• Compared how the authors build an argument from task walkthroughs, observed behaviour, linked records, session logs and design work.
• Updated the Codex and Claude articles to revision 2, adding related work and original examples. The method now explicitly supports source reviews, interface readings and firsthand observation.
• Added a featured readings card, a direct blog entry, course links and an equivalent Chinese article.
• Preserved v0.2 as an earlier local snapshot. Public deployment remains a separate step.

v0.2 · 3 October 2026#

• Added HCI Observatory, a study plan and two illustrated research drafts on Codex and Claude.
• Added a prominent homepage entry, a featured blog entry and a course navigation entry alongside homework and labs.
• Added authored Chinese versions of the homepage, About, Projects, Blog, course overview, Observatory and both studies. The top-right language control keeps the equivalent page when a translation exists.
• Added dated image provenance, separate evidence labels and proposed usability tests.
• Saved a local source-and-build snapshot before the change. The updated revision is also retained as a recoverable snapshot after verification.

This entry describes the local website revision. Public deployment is a separate step.

The earlier baseline#

The previous local website had the personal homepage, course work and the first combined interaction critique. A snapshot preserves that state before the Observatory and Chinese pages were added. Existing older backups remain available locally.

Two different kinds of version#

Website revision records navigation, presentation and language changes. Visitors use the current site; older site copies do not need to compete for space in the main menu.

Research revision records a product interface baseline and changes to an article’s evidence. Those dates appear in the article itself. A later product update does not erase an earlier observation.

The original coursework remains in English. When a page has no Chinese translation, the language control explains that it opens the Chinese section index instead.
