Doxa Maps 414150b622 Thumb-sized controls on a phone, and two CSS traps on the way Measured at 390x844: the Gap / Resources toggle rendered 48x26 and 129x26, and the legend's fold button 316x32. None of them FAILED anything — WCAG 2.5.8 puts the AA floor at 24x24 — but they are small for a thumb on a map that is mostly drag and pinch, where a missed tap pans the map instead of doing what you asked. They are 54x44 and 316x44 now, narrow screens only: on a desktop they sit in a 290px card beside a pointer and 26px is the right density. The legend grows 124px to 154px of an 844px screen, which it can afford. TWO MISTAKES WORTH RECORDING, both mine, both caught by measuring rather than by reading: 1. Written above .gm-mode's own rule, the media query changed the font size and nothing else. A media query adds NO specificity and that rule sets min-height:26px, so the later plain selector won. Reading the computed style is what told me — min-height resolved to 26px while my font-size had applied, so the rule was live and merely losing. It has to come last, and the comment says so. 2. Moving it "to the end" put it after the CSS argument, where it concatenated onto the style element's own id — so the stylesheet lost the rule and the id became "@media(...){...}doxa-gospel-map". The build passed: it is valid JavaScript. Only re-measuring the rendered button showed it, which is the second time today a green build meant nothing about the thing I had changed. Still 32x32 on a phone: the five .mcb toolbar buttons, which are the shared library control and every map's, not this leaf's. Reported rather than patched here — one leaf quietly disagreeing with the fleet about control size is worse than the size.		2026-09-27 04:32:29 +00:00

README.md

plugin-designs/ — where YOUR maps live

The shared template lives in ../library/ (aliased @map) — you never edit it per-map. You build your map by making a folder here, plugin-designs/<your-map>/, and composing the template's building blocks. Your folder is yours (colors, API, i18n); the template is shared (Apache-2.0, propagated to every map on the next build).

Shared vs. yours — the balance

  library/  (@map)  ── SHARED, reusable, parameterized ──►  legend · map · map-controls
        │                                                    (every map reuses these)
        │  imported by
        ▼
  plugin-designs/<your-map>/  ── YOURS ──►  the map's "main" class (the .vue profile = the Vue
        │                                  instance for that map)
        └── src/            ── YOURS ──►  this map's OWN non-reusable components, colors, API, utils

  One bundle can hold as many maps as you want — add another .vue profile and rebuild.

Reusable → library/. The legend, the map, the map-controls are shared, parameterized components every map reuses. Fix once, every map benefits. Never edit it to customize one map.
This map's own → plugin-designs/<your-map>/. It holds two things: the map's "main" class (each .vue profile is the Vue instance for that map) and that map's own non-reusable components (in src/). Nothing here leaks to another map.
Many maps per bundle. The bundler bundles one map or many — add another flat .vue and rebuild.

Production or experimental — every profile declares itself

Every app profile is one of two things, and experimental profiles are unlimited and encouraged — create as many as you need:

Experimental, not built: prefix the folder with _ — the build skips it; it just sits in code. Zero cost, zero risk.
Experimental, built: builds normally, but it belongs in the Experimental section of the power app's layout (nav section) — never embedded on partner surfaces.
Production: a real product — main sections of the power app + individually embeddable.

(The power app = the SPA layout that composes all profiles into one application.)

The pattern in one picture

plugin-designs/<your-map>/     ← one FOLDER = one BUNDLE, named after the folder
   ├── index.js               ← entry: registers the custom element, finds the profiles
   ├── overview.vue           ← one .vue = one PROFILE (flat in the folder — no profiles/ subfolder)
   └── detail.vue             ← another profile in the SAME bundle

     builds to ─────────────► public/dx-maps/<your-map>/<your-map>.js   (one file)

Folder name = bundle name. Folders starting with _ or . are skipped (handy for WIP).
Each .vue = one profile (one map screen). One bundle can hold many.
Pick the profile at embed time with the profile field — every profile shares one bundle:

<script src="/dx-maps/<your-map>/<your-map>.js"></script>
<your-map profile-config='{"profile":"overview","tk":"pk.eyJ..."}'></your-map>
<your-map profile-config='{"profile":"detail","tk":"pk.eyJ..."}'></your-map>

Add a map — three steps

# 1. create the folder + one profile
mkdir -p plugin-designs/<your-map>
#    index.js   ← copy doxa-simple-map/index.js, rename the tag
#    <name>.vue ← your screen, built from @map/* blocks (flat in the folder)

# 2. build
npm run build            # → public/dx-maps/<your-map>/<your-map>.js
#    (just this one:  BUNDLE=<your-map> npm run build:bundle)

# 3. embed the script tag + element (dev staging at `npm run dev` shows a paste-ready snippet)

Your three things (everything else is shared)

Colors — how pins are colored. Pick one the template ships (getColorStrategy('language-family')), or drop your own in plugin-designs/<your-map>/src/colors/ (start from template-bundle/src/colors/example-mode.js). Never edit @map/colors/ to recolor your map.
API — your map reads its data from the profile-config on the page, so the same bundle points at different data with no rebuild. DataSourceManager accepts csv (bundled file), api (one JSON URL), or rest-api (a live REST endpoint, the default). Prefer the real API over inlined JSON.
i18n — the template ships 11 base locales in @map/i18n/locales/. Use useI18n() for strings and RTL_LOCALES for right-to-left; add or override strings from your own profile.

The one hosting variable

The only thing that changes between hosting modes is the <script src>: a relative path when your own site serves the file, or an absolute CDN URL when a partner site serves it. The bundle is identical either way. See ../documentation/CONTRIBUTING.md for the two CDN modes and partner-site embedding.

Profile patterns (mix freely)

Individual — one .vue per bundle (simplest).
Parameterized — one profile, behavior driven by profile-config props (e.g. tabs[]).
Nested — one profile that renders others (workbench-style, like doxa-research-map).
