Interface upgrade complete
2024-01-27
The last elements of the new version of interface were activated today:
- the short cases gained elements that are slightly animated, to break the monotony of the casefiles,
- each case you solve you can rate between 1 and 5 on the solution page,
- the average value of those rates are displayed on the case entrance page,
- the my account button at the top displays a warning if there is a message you should read right there,
- additional button was added on the solution page, which will direct users straight to cases they have available right now.
