### 2. **Difficulty System Refactored** 🎓

#### Old System (Tier 1-6)
```json
"difficulty": { "tier": 3 }
```

#### New System (Named Levels)
```json
"difficulty": "UGrad"
```

**Four Levels:**
- 🟢 **High School** - Basic concepts (tier 1-2)
- 🔵 **UGrad** - Undergraduate mathematics (tier 3)
- 🟠 **PGrad** - Postgraduate mathematics (tier 4)
- 🔴 **Research** - Research-level topics (tier 5-6)

**Mapping:**
- Tier 1-2 → High School
- Tier 3 → UGrad  
- Tier 4 → PGrad
- Tier 5-6 → Research

**All 47 topics updated automatically** via Python script.

---

### 3. **Difficulty Tags on Cards** 🏷️

Each card now displays a **color-coded difficulty tag** below the title:

```
╔══════════════════════════════╗
║   ABSTRACT ALGEBRA           ║
║      [UGRAD]  ← Color badge  ║
║     1920 AD                  ║
╚══════════════════════════════╝
```

**Colors:**
- Green for High School
- Blue for UGrad
- Orange for PGrad
- Red for Research

Implemented in `createCardMesh()` function with canvas text rendering.

---

### 4. **Difficulty Dropdown Filter** 🎛️

**Location:** Top-right corner of 3D view

**Features:**
- Select: All Levels, High School, UGrad, PGrad, or Research
- **Reactive filtering** - cards and arrows hide/show instantly
- Smooth dark theme styling with hover effects
- Only visible in 3D mode

**Implementation:**
```javascript
// Reactive statement
$: if (cardMeshes.length > 0 && difficultyFilter) {
  cardMeshes.forEach(cardMesh => {
    const topic = cardMesh.userData.topic;
    cardMesh.visible = (difficultyFilter === 'All' || 
                        topic.difficulty === difficultyFilter);
  });
}
```

---

### 5. **Enhanced List View** 📋

**New Information Displayed:**

#### Difficulty Badge
```
╔══════════════════╗
║ Calculus [UGRAD] ║  ← Difficulty badge
╚══════════════════╝
```

#### Also Known As (aka)
```
Also known as: Differential & Integral Calculus, Analysis
```

#### Notable Years
```
Notable Years: 1665 AD, 1684 AD, 1734 AD
```

**Layout:**
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Topic Name               [UGRAD] 1665 AD│
│ Also known as: ...                      │
│ Notable Years: ...                      │
│ [Category Badge]  Type                  │
│ Contributors: ...                       │
│ Notes: ...                              │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

### 6. **Image Fetching Script Ready** 📸

**Script:** `src/lib/data/get_img.py`

**Features:**
- Fetches images from Wikimedia Commons
- Uses Wikipedia API → Wikidata Q-ID → Image
- Progress bar with tqdm
- Handles errors gracefully
- 0.3s delay between requests (API-friendly)

**Usage:**
```bash
cd src/lib/data
pip install requests tqdm
python3 get_img.py
```

**Expected Output:**
- Will fetch ~158 portraits
- Takes ~15-20 minutes
- Saves to `static/images/people/`
- Skips existing images

**Note:** Script is ready but not executed yet (will make many API calls). Run when ready!

|--------|--------|-------|--------|
| **Contributors** | 53 | 158 | **+105 (+198%)** |
| **Topics** | 47 | 47 | - |
| **Difficulty Levels** | 6 tiers | 4 named | Simplified |
| **List View Fields** | 5 | 8 | +3 |
| **3D Filters** | 0 | 1 | New! |
| **Lines of Code (page.svelte)** | 1,744 | 1,868 | +124 |

## 🎨 Visual Improvements

### Cards (3D View)
- **Before:** Title → Year → Category → Type → Info
- **After:** Title → **[DIFFICULTY TAG]** → Year → Category → Type → Info

### Dropdown Filter
- Positioned at top-right
- Dark theme with blue accent
- Smooth hover transitions
- Focus ring for accessibility

### List View
- Cleaner header layout with difficulty badge
- New italic sections for aka/notable years
- Better visual hierarchy
- Color-coded badges

---

## 🔧 Technical Details

### New State Variables
```javascript
let difficultyFilter = 'All'; // Filter state
```

### New Constants
```javascript
const difficultyColors = {
  'High School': '#22c55e',  // Green
  'UGrad': '#3b82f6',         // Blue
  'PGrad': '#f59e0b',         // Orange
  'Research': '#ef4444'       // Red
};
```

### New Reactive Logic
- `$:` statement watches `difficultyFilter`
- Updates `cardMesh.visible` for all cards
- Hides arrows when filtering
- Zero performance impact (uses Three.js culling)

### Data Structure Changes
```json
// OLD
{
  "difficulty": { "tier": 3 }
}

// NEW  
{
  "difficulty": "UGrad",
  "aka": ["Also known as..."],
  "notableYears": [1665, 1684]
}
```
