Update the Ferese symbols, appearance-specific wallpapers, and rounded wallpaper and theme previews. Bundle Figtree and add the Ferese name to the website header.
Verified configuration, theme, Settings, wallpaper and installer tests, both UI renderers, the static site build, and browser layouts.
Use the September 30 hero on the website and README, add a shared screenshot gallery, and remove the old showcase images. Build image links locally and clean generated site output.
Back up the known development portal override during installation and report custom overrides before building. Keep source selections clear while letting blur show through unselected rows.
Resolve light, dark and automatic appearance centrally and publish live theme snapshots to native surfaces and the appearance portal. Add paired preset families, custom theme imports, accessibility transforms and contrast-safe transitions.
Refine the Settings gallery and Auto controls, move overrides under advanced customization, and share palette-aware switches and circular slider thumbs. Document configuration and include theme licenses and integration coverage.
