- New 'Boys' member with beetroot color (#6B1040 / #D4A8C0) — any event
containing the word "Boys" gets this color
- Mom/Dad were already matched via fuzzy alias detection (no change needed)
- Event card font sizes increased by 1px (12.5px body, 11.5px time, 11px member)

- Fuzzy name matching: if a member's name appears anywhere in the event
title (word boundary, case-insensitive), it gets their color — no
[prefix] required. e.g. "Daniel's Week" → green, "Jason Karate" → blue
- More vibrant card color palette (deeper pastels, stronger border accent)
- Bolder event title text and slightly thicker left border for clarity

- After 1 hour of inactivity the screen switches to a fullscreen
crossfade slideshow of photos from static/photos/
- Touch anywhere on screen to dismiss and return to the calendar
- /api/photos endpoint serves a shuffled list of images from static/photos/
- Two-slot A/B image swap for smooth 1.5s crossfades; next image preloads
in the background while current is displayed (15s per photo)
- Slideshow only activates if static/photos/ contains at least one image

- Replace scrolling event list + photo background with a Sun–Sat week grid
plus a "Next Week" preview column; Prev/Next navigation and per-member filter
- Add [Name] event title prefix convention for color-coded family member cards
(Ludwig/Dad=blue, Michelle/Mom=pink, Jason=green, Daniel=yellow)
- /api/calendar now accepts ?start=YYYY-MM-DD, returns bucketed week payload
with member/color metadata; fetches 14 days to populate Next Week column
- Drop rotating background photo and dad joke from the display (endpoints kept)
- Update README with new UI overview, prefix convention, and API docs
