Create your own off-grid library

Acting on the review of #626. No bugs; one suggestion and three nits. The map's icon-only controls had no accessible name. IconButton requires a label by construction and AddToPlaylistButton supplies one, but the plain Button and APIButton used for edit, delete and the catalog preview reached assistive tech as unnamed buttons -- and my own Cypress fixtures carefully passed `aria-label` on the same pattern while production did not, which is its own kind of tell. All four are named now, and named with the row's subject rather than the verb alone: "Delete Water tank", not "Delete", because a table of pins otherwise offers a screen reader a column of identical buttons. A source guard holds that: it scans for controls that carry an icon and no label text, and reports any without an `aria-label`. Paired with a premise that it found some, since a scanner matching nothing reads exactly like a clean file. The Group guard asserted only that `<Group` appeared somewhere in the cell, which would pass on an empty Group left beside the bare siblings it was meant to wrap. It now checks that every control in the cell is inside the Group -- and the first version of THAT was wrong too: it sliced from `<Group` to the end of the cell rather than to `</Group>`, so controls after the closing tag still counted as inside, and the empty-Group plant stayed green. Slicing between the tags makes it fail. Coverage the review asked for: the Semantic size names the call sites actually use (`small`, `big`, `huge`) rather than only the Mantine ones, since the translation step was untested on the exact spellings that were broken; icon-only buttons stay square while loading, when the glyph is replaced by a spinner sized from the button's height; and `iconAfter`-only squares as well as `icon`-only. On the size passthrough, which was flagged as the highest-risk change outside the map: the buttons that grow are Settings' Shutdown and Reboot (`huge`, to 60px), Settings' Upgrade and Save and Channels' Save (`big`, to 50px), and VideoPlayer's Refresh (`large`, to 50px). All six read as deliberate emphasis -- the two biggest are the two destructive ones -- so they are left honoured rather than re-broken at the call site. `size='small'` resolves to `sm`, which is what the accidental default already was, so the detail pages do not move. 1134 jest / 64 suites, 246 in ui-layout.cy.js, clean npm run build. |

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.
