+![mapix screenshot](./screenshot.png)
+
 A browser-based photo mapping prototype that reads EXIF/GPS data and shows images on OpenStreetMap.
 
 ## Features
 
 - Nextcloud public share import through a local proxy
-- Client-side EXIF and GPS extraction
-- Map markers with photo thumbnails
-- Fullscreen photo viewer
-- Timeline view with zoomable time ranges
-- Progressive loading with cancel support
+- Client-side EXIF and GPS extraction where possible
+- Map markers with thumbnail previews
+- Thumbnail-backed photo list with lazy full-size image loading
+- Fullscreen photo viewer with loading state
+- Zoomable timeline with selectable ranges
+- Route line toggle on the map
+- Dark and light mode that follows the client OS preference and can be toggled manually
 - Local browser dependency bundle for Leaflet and EXIF parsing
+- Local brand assets and favicon
+
+## Recent Changes
+
+- Image handling now keeps thumbnails in the browser for markers and the photo list, while full-size images are loaded only on demand.
+- The photo viewer now shows a loading indicator before the full image is ready.
+- The sidebar header now includes the brand logo, and the logo switches with the active theme.
+- The top-right controls include a route visibility toggle and a theme toggle with compact icon-only buttons.
+- Browser dependencies and static assets are served locally to avoid CDN-related failures.
+- The timeline keeps its selected range visible again during drag selection.
+- The photo list now uses compact thumbnail tiles and stable wrapping for large result sets.
 
 ## Start

 - Photos are not stored on the server.
 - The UI and processing run in the browser where possible.
 - Browser dependencies are installed through npm and copied into `dist/vendor` during `npm run build`; the runtime serves them locally instead of loading third-party CDNs.
+- Static brand assets are copied from `src/assets` into `dist/assets` during the build.
 - Future auth can be forwarded by a reverse proxy via HTTP headers.
