Some checks are pending
build-gate / build (push) Waiting to run
regions.json for it/ro/zh, 54 keys each. check:i18n-parity now reports "0 key(s) of
known translation debt remain", closing the 429-key gap it found when it was written.
★ THE DEBT MAP IS EMPTY RATHER THAN FULL OF ZEROS, and that is the whole point of
this ratchet: a locale with NO entry must be complete — the gate fails it outright
for a single missing key — so an empty DEBT is the strongest state it can be in, not
an unset one. Writing { it: 0, ro: 0, zh: 0 } would mean the same today and quietly
permit a regression the moment someone "adjusted" a number. Mutation-tested both
ways: removing ONE key fails ("it is missing 1/176 key(s) and has no DEBT entry"),
deleting the whole file fails (54/176).
THE CARD'S ESTIMATE WAS WRONG AND IS CORRECTED. It recorded "54 keys of full
SENTENCES". Measured: 45 short labels (median 14.5 chars) + 9 longer strings, three
carrying %count%/%countries%/%region%/%country% interpolation tokens. The catalog is
keyed by its own English TEXT, not symbolic keys — which is exactly why the gap was
invisible: the fallback renders the English key itself, so key and value are
identical in English and nothing ever looks broken.
PLACEHOLDERS HELD BY A PROGRAMMATIC CHECK, not by care: every %token% in every
English value must appear, same set, in all three translations. 0 mismatches, 0
empty values. Mangling one breaks interpolation at runtime with nothing to catch it.
VERIFIED AT THE RENDERED LAYER on the regions-list leaf, en/it/ro/zh: labels
translated (Regions -> Regioni), the intro sentence translated, and the INTERPOLATED
count sentence correct — "315 people groups in 41 countries" -> "315 popoli in 41
paesi", both placeholders substituted with real numbers. Zero page errors. Each
locale asserted to DIFFER from English, so a silent fallback could not pass.
★ That sentence is the exact bug regions-list.vue:144 records: the Russian string was
"ALREADY in library/i18n/locales/ru/regions.json — copied, never wired", caught by
reading a screenshot rather than by any assertion. Now it is asserted.
zh is SIMPLIFIED, measured not assumed: the existing zh catalogs carry 33
Simplified-only characters against 4 Traditional. Vocabulary follows each locale's
own established terms — Popolo / Popor / 民族, Regione / Regiune / 区域 — and WAGF
stays an acronym, as fr and de already had it.

library/ (@map) — the shared map template
The other half of the architecture (see ../plugin-designs/README.md):
every map in plugin-designs/<your-map>/ composes the reusable, parameterized pieces that live here.
Fix something here and every map benefits on the next build; break something here and every map
breaks — read components/WARNING.md before touching shared pieces.
| Folder | What lives there |
|---|---|
ProfileLoader.vue |
The root of every bundle: parses profile-config, loads the profile, provides the stores + config |
components/ |
Shared UI — map, legends, controls, popup (PeopleGroupDetail), tables, charts, hints (README) |
composables/ |
Shared logic — map engine (useMapInstance), provider switch, shadow-DOM styles, theming |
stores/ |
Per-instance Pinia stores (ui / map / data) — provided by ProfileLoader, injected by children |
api/ |
Data-source registry (sources.json) + fetch layer — the JAMstack runtime wiring |
colors/ |
Color sets maps opt into via profile-config.colorSet |
i18n/ |
The shared string catalogs (all maps speak the same languages) |
data/ |
Small shared datasets baked at build time (big served data lives in ../data/) |
constants/ |
Shared constants |
scripts/ |
Maintainer pipelines (posters, research) — not part of any bundle |
The rule of thumb (same as WARNING.md): custom code in your app-profile, reusable code here — and things only move from the first to the second once they've earned it.
