fix(garden): soft planter containers + staggered card fade-in - #79
Merged
Conversation
Brief: the Thought Garden looked like stickers stacked on a wall — flat-tinted theme banners + same-elevation cards stacked in space, no atmosphere despite the "garden" framing. Three small visual changes, no logic touched: 1. Soft "planter" container. When there's more than one theme, each group sits inside a rounded-3xl sage-tinted container with a subtle border. Cards now feel held by their group, not floating loose. Single-theme view stays plain — nothing to separate from. 2. Drop the hard banner around the theme label. The planter itself is the visual anchor now, so the label can sit inline with a small sprout icon, no background tint or border. Action buttons stay ghost-styled rather than bg-primary/20 chips. 3. Stagger card fade-in (60ms per card, animationFillMode: backwards so cards aren't pre-painted before their delay). Opening the page now feels like cards blooming in sequence rather than all landing at once. Reversible — pure CSS, no data, no logic. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
