Cool! Peanut gallery suggestions: - The default black-on-dark-grey in the primary pane looks amateurish. Switching out the background color for something lighter (maybe a light beige?) would make a world of difference for first impressions. - I'd appreciate if the screenshots adapted to my platform, so I could see what the app actually looks like on Windows. But I understand that it'd consume a lot of effort to re-take everything two extra times and keep them all up to date. The Windows/Mac/Linux image at the bottom at least ought to use a platform-appropriate screenshot for each segment.

Thank you for suggestions! After I finished making the app, it ended up being very consuming making the promotional materials (website, screenshots, YouTube video, etc). I'm studying Machine Learning at the moment, so this project isn't the only one I'm juggling. I'm also not thrilled about the color scheme, but I couldn't come up with anything I liked more. It's not a challenge to update the color scheme a bit, though it's hard without explicit spec from someone stellar with UI (as we have at work).

If we're giving suggestions ... I strongly recommend against a website that requires javascript to view anything.

  The key word being requires. Adding polish with js is always appreciated.

  I grabbed a free online template without too much thought -- but I really should keep this in mind! My goodness! My website is useless without JS at the moment!

I would say to also include a dark theme. I'd prefer to customize the colors manually, but if that's not possible, at least have a light/medium/dark theme choice. The main reason, at least for me, is that on the TV, lighter themes are very bright.

  One of the animations on the website shows off a dark theme.
