Quantum Navigation & Skeletons
Massive performance upgrade for navigation and loading states with instant canvas transitions.
Instant Navigation
We removed blocking home page overlays. Click "Generate" and jump straight to the canvas instantly.
Mind Map Skeletons
New specialized radial skeletons show a pulsing "building" state for your maps while AI works.
Page Recovery
Added high-fidelity skeletons for Community and Profile pages for a flicker-free experience.
This release is all about speed and perceived performance. We've fundamentally changed how navigation works in MindScape to eliminate the feeling of 'waiting'.
Instant Canvas Navigation
Previously, clicking 'Generate' on the home page would show a full-screen overlay while the AI started working. This blocked all interaction and felt slow. Now, you're immediately routed to the canvas page where a beautiful radial skeleton animation plays while your map generates in the background.
Skeleton Loading States
Every major page now has purpose-built skeleton states. The mind map canvas shows an animated radial network, the Community page shows card placeholders, and the Profile page shows a structured layout skeleton. These are designed to match the final UI layout, so the transition from loading to loaded feels seamless.
Technical Details
The navigation change was achieved by moving the generation trigger from the home page to the canvas page's `useEffect`. The canvas now reads URL parameters to determine what to generate, and the generation happens client-side after mount. This eliminates the need for any blocking overlay.
