Three visual/structural changes:
- Grid cards without a thumbnail (nearly all real courses in this
library) showed the same generic graduation-cap icon, making the
poster grid hard to visually scan. Replace it with a deterministic
color+initial per course name (same idea as Slack/Google Photos
default avatars), so cards without real cover art still look
distinct from each other.
- Notes/Help/Settings only existed as small footer text links,
meaning a scroll to the bottom of every page to navigate. Add a
persistent bottom tab bar (Home/Notes/Help/Settings, current page
highlighted via a new active_tab context var) to the dashboard,
Notes Hub, Settings, and Help pages. Deliberately left the lesson
page alone - it already has its own fixed-bottom notes panel, and a
second fixed bar there would just eat into an already content-dense
page.
- The no-course dashboard stacked five informational/queue cards
(Library Stats, Next Up, Pick Back Up, Recently Added, Continue
Watching, Recently Viewed) before "Your Courses," so the actual
library browser was the last thing on the page. Move it up to right
after the Surprise Me banner - it was already unconditional, so this
only changes where it renders, not when.
