Shipping updates to both active products this week. The Let Them Struggle reader is at v2.4.6: in the side-by-side view, tap the English column to hear English or the Danish to hear Danish — the choice sticks as you read on — and tap any headline to start reading from there. The bilingual title page now sets both languages in clean facing columns. All on top of read-aloud that keeps your place, lock-screen controls, and instant loading.

TradeTi.me is at v4.32.5: its timeline legend now reads as clearly tappable, with colour cues for what each band means — on top of the PWA install, the quick tour, and a countdown that tells you which session is counting down and why.

Underneath both, the tool I write the books in: the Book Editor, now at v0.13.0 — a local-first authoring cockpit that keeps each book's standard, its Northstar, brief, and evidence, on screen at the point of every edit. In-house and local-only; the produce side to the reader's consume side.
