Review for Pull Request: Improve styling mobile by H Lohaus

First of all, thank you, H Lohaus, for your contribution to the project. Your efforts to improve the mobile styling are greatly appreciated. Below is a detailed review of the changes you've proposed.

General Feedback

Your pull request tackles important aspects of responsive design, which is crucial for enhancing user experience across various devices. The changes in the CSS file, particularly the introduction of flex-direction: column; in several places, seem to be aimed at improving the layout on smaller screens. Additionally, the adjustment in README.md corrects a mistaken link, which is a valuable fix.

Specific Comments

README.md

• Changing the incorrect link in the documentation from /docs/async_client.md to /docs/client.md is a crucial fix for navigation and user experience. Great catch!

CSS Changes

• Adding flex-direction: column; to the body and .settings .bottom_buttons improves the flow of content on smaller screens. This is a solid improvement for mobile users.
• Adjusting the .settings min-width and the .settings .paper min-width appears to be a thoughtful approach to handling minimum sizing without compromising the layout on smaller devices.
• Increasing the height of #message-input from 82px to 90px might improve the text input area's usability. It's a subtle change but could enhance typing experience on mobile.

JavaScript Changes

• The addition of el.classList.add("blink") and el.classList.remove("blink") for the speech button provides visual feedback, which is usually good for user interaction. However, it would be helpful to also consider the accessibility implications of such changes.
• The condition if (ended && !stopped) in the audio playback logic seems to be a careful consideration to prevent unwanted autoplay in certain scenarios. It's a thoughtful addition, ensuring that playback behaves as expected by the user.

Recommendations

• Testing across devices: Ensure that these changes have been tested across a variety of screen sizes and devices to confirm that the responsive design behaves as expected.
• Accessibility considerations: For any visual changes like blinking effects, consider how these might affect users with different accessibility needs. Providing an option to disable such effects could be beneficial.
• Further documentation: For changes that significantly alter the user interface or experience, consider updating the project's documentation or user guides to reflect these adjustments.

Conclusion

This pull request introduces several improvements to the project's mobile responsiveness and fixes a critical link in the documentation. These changes are likely to enhance the user experience significantly, especially for mobile users. I recommend merging these changes after ensuring they meet the project's standards for cross-device compatibility and accessibility.

Thank you again, H Lohaus, for your valuable contributions. Looking forward to seeing more of your work in the future!
