Reported together as "button groups", but they turned out to be three unrelated
things.
The file browser's footer buttons touched while the Channel Edit page's had
gaps. Channel Edit lays its buttons out with Mantine's `Group`, which is a flex
row with a gap; the footer is hand-rolled and was a plain block, so its
inline-block buttons sat flush -- JSX drops whitespace-only lines, so there was
not even a space character between them. The footer is now the flex row every
other button group already is, wrapping because it carries eight controls.
The Settings config table's Import and Save buttons had off-centre icons while
Restore in the same row looked right. Restore is an IconButton -- an ActionIcon,
which centres a lone glyph by construction. Import and Save are icon-only
Buttons, and an icon on a Button goes into Mantine's `leftSection`, which carries
a `margin-inline-end` to hold it off the label. With no label that margin is
pure offset: measured at 8px left of centre. An icon with no label is now
rendered as the button's content instead, so it centres. `Children.toArray`
decides that, because it drops nulls and the file browser passes
`{label('Delete')}` -- null whenever the bar is too narrow for words, which is
exactly where the offset showed most.
The search field's clear button sat inside the field rather than attached to it:
the control is a bordered box with `padding: 0 8px`, leaving the button 9px short
of the edge and 2px short of the height. Semantic welded it to the field --
measured on the QA Pi at zero gap and full height -- so it now stretches and
negative margins cancel the padding and the flex gap. Negative margins rather
than dropping the control's padding, because that padding is what holds the
search icon and the text off the border; only this one child should escape it.
The `html` prefix on that rule is load-bearing: Mantine sets ActionIcon's height
from `--ai-size` on its own single class, and at equal specificity the winner is
whichever stylesheet loaded last.
Fourteen new cases. One correction worth recording: the height assertion first
compared against the control's border box and failed on correct behaviour -- the
button fills the CONTENT box, and the 1px above and below it is the field's own
border, which it should sit inside rather than paint over. Each fix planted
separately; the icon change reddens three, the footer one, the clear button one.
Every case is paired with an inverse -- a labelled button must keep its icon on
the left, and the field must still be padded around its other children.
1128 jest / 63 suites, 226 in ui-layout.cy.js, clean npm run build. Confirmed
live: footer gaps 8px on one row, config glyphs at 0.0px from centre, clear
button 1px from the field edge at the field's full inner height.

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.
