Welcome to the FocusForge changelog. Here you can find information about the latest updates, new features, bug fixes, and improvements made to the platform.
First stable release of Focus Forge — a personal hub for tracking your backlog, writing articles, listening to music, timing your activities, and more, installable as an offline-ready app.
Dashboard & account
- Central dashboard with quick-access cards to Articles, Backlog, and Music after logging in.

- Shop hub for customizing your account with Avatars, Backgrounds, Hats, and Themes.
- Light and dark theme switcher.
Backlog tracker
- Track Games, Films, Series, Anime, Books, and Courses in one place, each with a status: Backlog, Wishlist, In Progress, Completed, or Dropped.
- Mark favorites, score and rate completed items, and generate or upload cover images.
- AI-powered suggestions: get recommendations in one category (e.g. films) based on what you already track in another (e.g. games).
