Reported as "all different sizes", and the pin row's three actions measured
46x30, 30x30 and 54x36. Three causes.
APIButton dropped `size`. `useAPIButton` declared `size = 'medium'` as a
parameter and then never put it into the props it hands to Button, so every
APIButton in the app rendered at Mantine's default regardless of what its call
site asked for -- seventeen call sites pass one, from `xs` on the map pins to
`big` and `huge` on Settings. The delete pin was 36px tall beside two 30px
siblings because of it. Passing the parameter default through would have fixed
the bug by breaking everything else -- every APIButton naming no size would have
grown from `sm` to `md` -- so the default is undefined now and Button's own
default stands. Eight buttons on three other pages do grow as a result, which is
their call sites finally being honoured: VideoPlayer's `large`, one of Channels'
`big`, and Settings' two `big` and two `huge`.
An icon-only Button was not square. A Button is as wide as its content plus its
horizontal padding; an ActionIcon is square by construction; and the pin row
mixes the two, because AddToPlaylistButton renders an IconButton when it has no
label. Their heights already agreed -- ActionIcon's scale was remapped onto
Button's some commits ago -- and this is the other axis of the same alignment,
keyed off Mantine's own `--button-height` so the two stay in step through every
size.
They were also misaligned and touching, which is a third thing: bare inline-block
siblings align on text BASELINES, and a Button's baseline is not an ActionIcon's,
so the middle control sat 4.3px above the other two. A Group, as every other row
of buttons in the app uses.
Written test-first at Roland's request. Seven cypress cases went red on the
sizes -- widths 46 against 30, 54 against 36, 62 against 42, 70 against 50, and
"xs is shorter than lg: expected 36 to be below 32" for the dropped size -- with
both inverses green throughout: a labelled button stays as wide as its label, and
an APIButton naming no size keeps the height it had.
The alignment claim is measured in ui-layout.cy.js, including the premise that
bare siblings really are misaligned, since three controls of identical height not
lining up is not believable otherwise. The call sites are held by a source
guard, because MapPins fetches from the API and builds its rows through
SortableTable.
That guard earned itself twice over. Written for the pin rows, it found the
map-files subscribe cell putting a preview button beside a subscribe button with
the same defect. Then a first attempt at a general "any cell with two controls"
rule had to be abandoned: a cell whose buttons are the arms of a ternary renders
only one and needs no Group, and excluding ternaries to allow for that also
excluded the subscribe cell, whose `role={isSubscribed ? ... : ...}` says nothing
about how many controls it holds. Named cells with a stated scope beat a general
rule that quietly stops covering things.
Two slips of mine in that file, both caught by running it: `expect(value, message)`
is chai and throws in jest, and `onSave(pin.id, ...)` was not unique to the cell
it named -- the edit row's TextInput calls it from onKeyDown in a different cell,
so the check passed against the wrong one.
1132 jest / 64 suites, 243 in ui-layout.cy.js, clean npm run build. Confirmed
live: three 30x30 controls, vertical spread 0, 10px gaps.

WROLPi
Create your own off-grid library.
WROLPi is a self-contained collection of software to help you survive the world Without Rule of Law.
WROLPi is intended to be run on a Raspberry Pi with an optional external drive attached. It serves up it's own Wi-Fi network so that any user with a laptop/tablet/phone can connect and use the library created by the maintainer.

Try WROLPi!
You can try out WROLPi by running the docker containers.
- Install docker-ce and docker-compose
- Copy the latest WROLPi code.
git clone https://github.com/lrnselfreliance/wrolpi.git
- Change directory into the code base.
cd wrolpi
- Initialize git submodules
git submodule update --init
- Build the containers.
docker-compose build --parallel
- Create volumes.
docker volume create --name=openstreetmap-datadocker volume create --name=openstreetmap-rendered-tiles
- Initialize the database (SQLite in the media directory).
docker-compose run --rm api db upgrade
- Start the docker containers.
docker-compose up
- Browse to WROLPi.
More Docker documentation is available in docker/README.md
Install WROLPi
Full installation instructions are in INSTALL.md. Pick the option that matches your hardware:
- WROLPi Portable (Live USB) — boot a complete WROLPi from a USB stick on any x86 PC or laptop. Nothing is installed to the computer; the first boot creates a persistence partition on the USB so your library, database, and configuration survive reboots.
- Debian 12 — install WROLPi onto an x86 PC or laptop.
- Raspberry Pi — install WROLPi onto a Raspberry Pi with an external drive.
- Docker — run the WROLPi containers on an existing Linux host.
Charter
Guiding Principals
- Storage is cheaper than power.
- Two is one, one is none.
- Run silently.
- Primary, secondary, tertiary.
- Secure as a bookshelf in your home.
Physical properties
- A WROLPi instance should be capable of running with a minimal of hardware:
- Raspberry Pi
- SD card
- External USB hard drive
- Power supply and cables
- Wi-Fi USER device such as a phone, tablet, or laptop.
- A WROLPi instance should consume a minimal amount of electricity during WROL event. It is expected power will be scarce when WROLPi is needed most.
User expectations
- A WROLPi instance should be run and maintained by a person (MAINTAINER) with a moderate amount of Linux and Raspberry Pi experience. It is expected that they should be able to do this using only the documentation on their WROLPi.
Software properties and capabilities
- A WROLPi instance should be able to "factory-reset" itself without any outside services.
- WROLPi should function completely without any internet services.
- A user should have easy access to their data if WROLPi fails:
- For example, a user can watch their videos by navigating a short and intuitive directory structure and opening the video in their preferred video player.
- WROLPi should be self-documented. The UI should contain a tutorial for USERS as well as the MAINTAINER.
- If the UI isn't functional, the code should be documented such that a user can restore functionality.
- WROLPi should favor pre-processing, rather than processing during a WROL event. Such as re-encoding a video, or processing captions. This is to ensure that when a user adds content during non-WROL time, the processing for optimum performance is already done for a WROL event.
