Focus Mode v2.0.0 🚀

The biggest update yet — a complete UI overhaul and a real, working Python bridge.

✨ Highlights

• Brand new UI — fully redesigned interface built from Stitch-generated designs, now running on clean HTML/CSS/JS (migrated off React/TypeScript/Vite for a lighter, faster app)
• Real Python bridge — wired up via PyWebView, so the UI actually talks to the backend now instead of being a static mockup
• One-click install — packaged as a single .exe via PyInstaller with UAC elevation built in, so hosts-file editing just works without manual "Run as Administrator" hassle

🔧 Under the Hood

• Windows manifest added for proper elevation prompts on launch
• Hosts-file blocking logic carried over and hardened (marker-comment based, so your original hosts file stays untouched outside the managed block)
• Site icons pulled via Google Favicon API for a cleaner block list UI
• System tray support (pystray) for background running
• Settings & block-list data now persisted in AppData

🐛 Fixes & Improvements

• Removed React/TS/Vite build overhead — faster startup, smaller footprint
• General UI polish and responsiveness fixes across all screens
