🎉 Jah Pod Sextar?

"Jah pod sextar?" is a fun web application that humorously determines whether it's time to start celebrating the weekend. The idea came up during a casual joke with my coworkers, where we would often ask each other "Já pode sextar?" every Friday to see if the weekend mood was officially allowed to begin. This app brings that fun tradition to life!

🇧🇷 What is "Sextar"?

In Brazilian culture, "sextar" is derived from "sexta-feira" (Friday) and is widely used to express excitement for the weekend. People often say "hoje é dia de sextar!" when they're ready to finish work or studies and start unwinding. Essentially, "sextar" means to begin enjoying Friday — whether by relaxing, going out, or just getting into the weekend vibe.

🇺🇸 Equivalent Expression in the U.S.

In the United States, a similar phrase would be "It's finally Friday!" or "TGIF" (Thank God It's Friday). While "TGIF" focuses on relief from the workweek, "sextar" is more about actively celebrating the arrival of Friday.

🚀 How It Works

• The app checks the current day and time.
• It fetches predefined responses stored in a JSON file.
• Depending on the day and time, it delivers a playful message.
• If it’s Friday after noon, the app confirms that it’s time to “sextar!” with a festive message. 🎉
• If it's not quite time, the app will show a funny or slightly disappointing reply. 😅

🛠️ Adding New Themes

Adding new themes to the project is simple and straightforward. Just follow these steps:

1. Create a new theme class

• Open src/themes/themes.css file
• Create a new class following the naming convention theme--<theme-name> with the desired colors. For example, if your theme is called "Pop Filter", you would add:

.theme--pop-filter {
  --color-text: #ffffff; /* Changes main text color */
  --color-footer: #ffffff; /* Changes footer text color */
  --color-hover: #ffffff; /* Changes footer hover color */
  --color-bg: #ffffff; /* Changes background color */
}

2. Add the theme name to availableThemes

• Open src/themes/availableThemes.ts file
• Add the new theme name to the availableThemes array. For example, for the "Pop Filter" theme, you would add:

const availableThemes: string[] = [
  'Dark',
  'Light',
  'Pop Filter', // Add your new theme here
  // other themes...
]

3. Select the new theme

• After following the above steps, your new theme should appear in the dropdown menu and be selectable.

Notice that theme names with more than 15 characters will be truncated when shown inside the themes dropdown menu
