Three focused CSS-only visual improvements to raise UI consistency and premium feel across components that were lagging behind the established design standard.

Changes

Progress Bar Shimmer Unification

  • .milestone-progress-fill and .tutorial-progress-bar were using hard-coded hex gradients (#667eea → #764ba2) with no animation
  • Migrated to design tokens (--color-accent → --color-accent-secondary → --color-accent-light) and added the same 2.5s shimmer sweep already on .category-bar
  • Suppressed under prefers-reduced-motion

Tag Hover Micro-interaction

  • .tag chips had zero hover state — dead interactive elements
  • Added 150ms ease-out transition: accent-tinted background, accent border, translateY(-1px) lift, subtle box-shadow glow via color-mix()

Section Container Elevation

  • Six tool containers (.achievement-section, .comparison-container, .dependency-legend, .dependency-graph-container, .dependency-insights, .impact-chart-container) used flat page-background with a plain 1px border — visually flat against their parent
  • Elevated to the glass-card standard matching .stat-card: border-radius: 20px, backdrop-filter: blur(8px), var(--shadow-md), accent-tinted border + translateY(-2px) on hover
  • Light theme override: rgba(255,255,255,0.72) background for contrast; hover lift suppressed at ≤768px
