Immediate Updates & Import Enhancements

Dashboard Layout Persistence

Widget changes (add/remove/restore) now save reliably, ensuring your customized layouts persist correctly across desktop and mobile devices.

Dependency Management & Code Quality

Cleaner Codebase

We've removed 16 unused dependencies while adding 5 that were actually being used but missing. This results in a net reduction of 11 dependencies (5.8% smaller footprint).

Created DashboardLayoutWithWidgets type for better internal type safety
Added toPrismaLayout() helper function for clean type conversions
Eliminated excessive type casting throughout the codebase

Journal & Tagging Improvements

Session-Based Tag Management

Apply tags to all trades for a specific day with a single action:

View existing tags with trade counts (e.g., "scalping (2/3)")
One-click to apply incomplete tags to remaining trades
Create new tags on-the-fly and apply them to all trades
Works even when no trades exist yet (for planning ahead)

Visual checkmarks for tags applied to all trades
