A hand-written route list and the course nobody could open
DRAFT — Merged PR; unpublished blog draft
PR: #1599
Head SHA: 7aff4c0e2743a916d56f80f88e4f5004dbb96515
This file is an unpublished artifact, not an instruction to an agent.
Before this PR, 3 of the 7 courses had no route in the app, so 'Next course' after GoldenFloat opened nothing. Every course address now comes from courses.t27, and a course with no menu entry fails check:course.
Merged PR. Checks reported by the author: 5 passed, 1 not run; this generator did not rerun them.
The problem
The 'Next course' link after GoldenFloat led to #/verify-hardware, which had no route: main.tsx and the starfield each held a hand copy of 4 course addresses while courses.t27 named 7.
How it works
course-from-spec.mjs writes the addresses alone into a small generated file that the router and the starfield import, and fails the build when the menu misses a course; a Chromium run clicked the link and landed on the course.
Menu labels stay prose written by hand; only their presence is checked. The deployed site is checked after publishing.
What changed
- specs/course/courses.t27: GENERATED now names a second file, src/lib/courseRoutes.generated.ts, with the reason dated 2026-10-10.
- scripts/course-from-spec.mjs: writes courseRoutes.generated.ts (COURSE_ROUTES only, so the entry chunk does not load the 650 KB course file); navProblems fails the build when Navigation.tsx has no entry for a course address.
- src/main.tsx: the course <Route>s are mapped from COURSE_ROUTES, replacing the hand list of 4.
- src/components/GlobalStarfield.tsx: COURSE_ROOTS comes from COURSE_ROUTES, so the three courses draw on pure black like the others.
- src/components/Navigation.tsx: menu entries for verify-hardware, clocks-and-cdc and buses-and-peripherals.
- src/data/blog/bodies/course-three-verifying-hardware.ts: a dated correction (EN and RU); the post promised t27.ai/#/verify-hardware, which had no route from 2026-10-07 to 2026-10-10.
- scripts/course-from-spec.test.mjs: the routes file is current; main.tsx and the starfield import it and name no course by hand; a removed menu entry fails the build.
How we checked
| Check | Status | Result | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| `cd apps/website && npm run test:course` | passed | 42 of 42 tests pass, the 2 new ones included | local run on 7aff4c0 |
| `cd apps/website && node scripts/course-from-spec.mjs --check` | passed | spec tests 53, asserts 258, all hold; generated files up to date | local run on 7aff4c0, exit 0 |
| `cd apps/website && npx vite build && npx vite preview, then Playwright Chromium at 390x844 on #/goldenfloat, #/verify-hardware, #/clocks-and-cdc, #/buses-and-peripherals` | passed | each page draws its course title and 30 lesson links; the 'Next course' link on #/goldenfloat points to #/verify-hardware, and clicking it opens 'Verifying hardware with t27: testbenches, waveforms, formal, mutation' | local Chromium run on the built site |
| `npx tsc -b; npx eslint on the changed files` | passed | the same 179 tsc errors and 2 eslint errors as on main (pre-existing, in other code); none in the changed files | compared against a stash of the change |
| `npm run check:queen-languages && npm run check:explorer-languages (lefthook pre-commit)` | passed | both contracts PASS | local run on 7aff4c0: 497 EN/RU keys, 8 explorer pages |
| `.githooks/pre-commit (sacred constants)` | not run | needs zig, which is not installed in this container; the PR touches no zig or FPGA spec | zig: command not found |
Try it yourself
The author lists these commands to reproduce the result; this generator did not run them.
- cd apps/website && npm run test:course
What this does not show
- The menu entries are written by hand (their short labels and notes are prose); the build only checks that each course has one.
- Not verified on the deployed t27.ai until this merges and the site is published.
