Hey everyone,

Remember that Flask Hive Keychain login applet I was tinkering with about a week ago? Well, I'm excited to announce that I've finally integrated it into **[thecrazygm.com](https://thecrazygm.com)**! You can now sign in using your Hive Keychain credentials.

This wasn't just a small addition, though. Implementing the Keychain login spurred a complete overhaul of the site's API layer. While this backend upgrade might not be something most users will directly see or use (it's primarily for our team's use for now), it's a significant improvement under the hood.

## More Than Just Login: A Full Site Facelift!

But here's the part you _will_ notice: while I was at it, I couldn't stop myself. Being the OCD developer I am, I decided that if one part was getting an upgrade, the whole site deserved some love. So, tool by tool, I've been giving `thecrazygm.com` a visual and functional facelift to make it look and feel more modern and user-friendly.

## Case in Point: The TipJar

One of the tools that's received this treatment is the TipJar. It's now cleaner, more intuitive, and aligns with the new aesthetic I'm rolling out across the site.

Here’s a look at the **new and improved TipJar**:

And just for a bit of nostalgia (and to show how far it's come!), here’s a snippet I managed to dig up of what the **original TipJar** looked like:

As you can see, it's quite a change! I've been applying similar updates across the other tools and pages. The goal is to make everything not just functional but also a bit more pleasant to use.

This has been a bit of a project, overhauling things piece by piece, but I'm really happy with how it's shaping up. The Keychain login integration was the catalyst, but it's resulted in a much broader refresh.

Head on over to [thecrazygm.com](https://thecrazygm.com) to check out the changes – try out the TipJar or explore some of the other tools. I'd love to hear what you think of the new look and feel!

As always,
