- This setting is important to allow creation ofa Home Screen app on iOS/iPadOS
- If kiosk mode is accidentally made sticky, it can be cleared by adding '&kiosk=false` to the URL
- Ctrl-K will now also exit kiosk mode
This adds a `stickyRead` parameter to settings, that means "read it if it's there, but don't write it"
- Replace CSS zoom with CSS transform scaling for better mobile compatibility
- Implement wrapper-based scaling approach that includes both content and navigation bar
- Replace Almanac layout with CSS Grid for better cross-browser layout
- Greatly improve scanline algorithm to handle a wide variety of displays
- Add setting to override automatic scanlines to user-specified scale factor
- Remove scanline scaling debug functions

- Create server endpoints for JSON data with long-term caching
- Add graceful failure handling if core data fails to load
- Copy JSON data files to dist/data for static hosting
- Update app initialization to load data asynchronously
- Set serverAvailable flag for static builds in gulp task
This reduces HTML payload size and enables better caching strategies
for both server and static deployment modes.
