 ## Users
 
-Homarr is used by self-hosters and administrators who assemble dashboards for services running across home labs and private infrastructure. They need dense, reliable controls and status at a glance, with enough guidance to configure advanced features without hiding how they work.
+Homarr is for self-hosters and administrators who assemble dashboards for services across home labs and private infrastructure. They need dense, reliable controls and status at a glance, while retaining enough guidance to configure advanced features without hiding how they work.
 
 ## Product Purpose
 
-Homarr provides one place to organize, observe, and operate self-hosted services. Success means a user can build a useful dashboard quickly, understand its state, recover from configuration errors, and extend it without requiring a bespoke Homarr feature for every service. Boards must load immediately, stay visually stable, keep widgets legible across screen sizes, and make editing feel direct and forgiving.
+Homarr provides one place to organize, observe, and operate self-hosted services. Success means users can build useful dashboards quickly, understand their state, recover from configuration errors, act on services, and reshape their workspace without repeatedly leaving the board. Boards must load immediately, stay visually stable, and keep widgets legible across screen sizes.
 
 ## Brand Personality
 
-Direct, capable, and approachable. Copy should be concise and technical when precision matters, while the interface should remain familiar to users who are not developers.
+Direct, capable, precise, and approachable. Homarr should feel calm under load, be truthful about system state, and reward users who refine details.
 
 ## Anti-references
 
-Avoid decorative admin dashboards, wizard flows that fight ordinary scrolling, hidden configuration magic, inconsistent controls, excessive modal usage, and interfaces that expose implementation complexity before the user needs it.
+- Decorative dashboards, oversized metric cards, and motion without state meaning.
+- Wizard flows that fight ordinary scrolling or rigid layouts that force one workflow.
+- Hidden configuration magic and implementation complexity exposed before it is needed.
+- Clever custom controls where familiar platform or Mantine interactions already work.
 
 ## Design Principles
 
-1. Keep the user in control by making configuration and consequences visible.
-2. Prefer familiar product patterns and progressive disclosure over custom interaction concepts.
-3. Make simple tasks short without limiting advanced use cases.
-4. Isolate failures so one service or widget cannot disrupt the dashboard.
-5. Use the existing Mantine design language consistently across management and board surfaces.
-6. Keep spatial actions direct: moving, resizing, nesting, and using fixed rails happen on the canvas with immediate feedback.
-7. Preserve predictable widget composition with fixed logical tile sizes and horizontal scrolling before controls become inaccessible.
+1. Keep configuration, consequences, and system state visible.
+2. Make simple tasks short without limiting advanced workflows.
+3. Preserve expert depth while prioritizing urgent information at small sizes.
+4. Reveal dense workspaces progressively through a consistent advanced focus mode.
+5. Isolate failures and show loading, stale, partial, empty, and failed states truthfully.
+6. Use the existing Mantine design language consistently across management and board surfaces.
+7. Keep spatial actions direct: moving, resizing, nesting, and using fixed rails happen on the canvas with immediate feedback.
+8. Preserve predictable widget composition with fixed logical tile sizes and horizontal scrolling before controls become inaccessible.
 
 ## Accessibility & Inclusion
 
-Target WCAG 2.2 AA. Support keyboard navigation, screen readers, visible focus, sufficient contrast, reduced motion, non-color status cues, responsive layouts, actionable error messages, and keyboard equivalents for drag and resize operations.

 This widget displays internet speed test results from your [Speedtest Tracker](https://docs.speedtest-tracker.dev/) instance,
 including the latest result, historical averages, and a live chart of the last 12 hours.
 
+Advanced view renders a source-labeled panel for every healthy integration. Each panel exposes that source's latest test, statistics, speed and ping charts, plus 12-hour, 24-hour, and truthful **Last 30** result ranges regardless of compact visibility switches. Compact mode keeps the responsive aggregate overview and names its healthy sources when multiple integrations are selected.
+
+When multiple Speedtest Tracker integrations are selected, results from healthy sources remain visible if another source fails. A warning indicator identifies each unavailable integration without exposing private request details. If every selected integration fails, the widget reports an error; if cached data remains visible after a later total failure, a stale-data warning is shown.

 Using the Stocks widget, you can show the current stock prices of your favorite companies on your dashboard.
+The widget prioritizes the symbol, current price, and trend. Company name, change, time range, and a taller chart appear progressively when both widget dimensions can support them.
+
+In advanced view, the widget always shows the returned symbol and company name, configured range and interval, current and previous close, absolute and percentage change, range minimum and maximum, and the full price-history chart. These values use the same configured Yahoo Finance query as the compact widget; advanced view does not change the symbol, range, or interval.
