This morning I hit 2.1, which was a performance upgrade. 2.0 reloaded the whole thing every time I changed posts. Now there are collection-specific routes and post-specific URLs, and the whole thing is indexed on the first load, so moving around is instant, even when editing in production.
That was good to do before adding collection 2 and uprooting the lingering bits that are specific to collection 1. Once that’s done, I’ll know how to finish optimizing, and then I can add everything else.

✈️ If you've been curious about this 3D modeling tool, and just want to check it out yourself, I have pushed a build to TestFlight for iOS, macOS, and visionOS.
It's not a product, it doesn't have a name, it has many obvious bugs and issues that haven't had a polish pass, and it doesn't save anything to disk. It may never be something I finish; it's just a snapshot in time of the development, to play with
