- Shared header/footer/chrome (src/header.html, src/footer.html, src/chrome.js)
now on every page: editor (header above its app toolbar), player, teacher,
stage, micro, showcase, embed. chrome.js defers to DOMContentLoaded so the
footer version stamps regardless of placement. Player's fullscreen toggle
relocated out of the header to a floating control.
- Open = Info: each form-factor page is self-contained — a more-detailed
description (.about) + an expandable "Spec & BOM" (<details class="spec">,
hidden in embed). info-*.html retired; build/deploy/README updated.
Next: teacher-style dimensioned front + top/side views + loading panels for
Stage, Micro and Showcase.

- Concepts is now the landing (/): index.html is the form-factor gallery with the
LIVE widget embedded in every box (editor/teacher/stage/micro/showcase/initial),
on the shared header/footer. concepts.html retired; every "Concepts" link → /.
- New shared chrome partials src/header.html, src/footer.html, src/chrome.js
(assembled by build.sh) + .site-foot / details.spec styles in base.css. Applied
to the landing + showcase this pass.
- Showcase redesign per spec: the pendulum bar IS the display — each lane's
subdivisions/accents ride along the rod as moving RGB light (all meters combined);
transparent outside the body (no black window); a printed tempo scale on the
vertical axis with a draggable weight to set tempo; start is an external button
(the real unit starts when lifted from its holder).
Next pass: roll the shared header/footer onto the remaining pages (incl. the editor
header-above-toolbar), merge Open=Info into one page per form factor with the
expandable Info & BOM, and add teacher-style dimensioned views to Stage/Micro/Showcase.

Sync: the visual playhead now advances on a latency-compensated clock
(currentTime − outputLatency||baseLatency) so the on-screen pulse lands when the
click is HEARD, not when it's queued — previously the visual could lead the audio
by the output buffer / Bluetooth latency (up to ~a subdivision). Applied to
editor, player, teacher, and the new pages; also bound the visual queue (vq trim).
No data races: single-threaded; only the rAF draw touches vqPtr/currentStep, and
each vq entry carries the exact scheduled time of its sound.
stage.html — foot-pedal stompbox: two heavy footswitches (Tap=tempo / hold=start-
stop, Next=item / hold=prev), 1/4" expression-pedal input → tempo sweep, big
floor-readable RGB beat light + angled TFT, analog instrument pass-through.
showcase.html — pyramid display piece: an RGB-light pendulum easing to each beat
plus per-lane segment rows showing subdivisions/accents/mutes (canvas).
Both: dual USB-C (data+power and power-thru) to daisy-chain off one source.
Wired into embed.js (stage, showcase variants), build.sh, deploy.sh, the
concepts gallery + landing cards, info-stage.html (~$52) + info-showcase.html
(~$39) with BOMs, and the README.

The full-feature desktop console (big TFT, arcade buttons, instrument pass-through)
is repositioned as the "Teacher" for studio desks and lessons:
- stage.html -> teacher.html, info-stage.html -> info-teacher.html (git mv)
- all links/paths, the embed variant (stage -> teacher), nav, cards, embed docs,
README, build.sh + deploy.sh updated; deploy cleans the stale live stage files
The "Stage" name is now free for a forthcoming foot-pedal stompbox (/stage.html).

The site now opens on a proper front door: a hero (logo + tagline + pitch),
an "Open the Editor →" CTA, and form-factor cards (Editor, Stage, Micro, Embed)
linking out to each page + info. The PE-1 editor app moves from index.html to
editor.html; every "Editor"/"Open" link, the embed.js editor variant, and the
editor's own brand-logo (now → /) are repointed. build.sh + deploy.sh build and
publish both index.html (landing) and editor.html (app).

Each form factor now has an information page (purpose + live embedded widget),
with priced BOMs only on the buildable hardware (Stage ≈$59, Micro ≈$28):
- info-editor.html / info-initial.html — purpose only (web app / concept)
- info-stage.html — purpose + the priced BOM moved out of stage.html
- info-micro.html — purpose + a new ~$28 practice-unit BOM
stage.html drops the BOM panel (+ its .bom CSS) and gains a "Spec & BOM" link;
the shared .bom/.sub table CSS lives in src/base.css. "Info" added to every
page nav and to the concept cards. Wired into build.sh + deploy.sh.

- Every form factor supports ?embed=1: a head flag (set on <html>, no flash)
strips the site chrome (base.css [data-embed]) + page-specific panels, leaving
just the widget, and posts its height so the host can auto-size it.
- Config/settings string preloads via the existing #p=/#sl= hash. Added that
hash handling to micro.html (it previously only loaded built-in tracks).
- New embed.js loader: <div data-varasys-metronome="micro" data-patch="…"> + one
<script> → an auto-sizing iframe to <page>?embed=1#p=…. New embed.html documents
it and dogfoods a live embedded widget.
- "Embed" nav link added across pages; build.sh/deploy.sh build embed.html and
serve embed.js.

- Shared site header in src/base.css (.site-head/.site-nav/.brand-logo + theme-
aware logo + .tbtn). Applied to player/stage/micro (replacing their text
topbars) so the VARASYS logo + tagline + Editor/Concepts nav is on every page.
- Rebrand the editor: "Stackable Metronome" → "PE-1 — PolyMeter Editor" (title +
h1), with a Concepts link in its header.
- New concepts.html — the PolyMeter Concepts library: cards for the editor and
each form factor (PM-1 Initial/Stage, PM-µ Micro) + a "more coming" card.
- build.sh + deploy.sh build/deploy concepts.html; deploy.sh now loops over pages.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Rename player-asbuilt.html → stage.html (the pedalboard build). Update
build.sh + deploy.sh (deploy now also removes the old player-asbuilt.html
from the web root) and the cross-links in player.html / stage.html.
- New /micro.html — a stripped-down home-practice metronome on the same RP2040
firmware. Hardware is just: ONE depressable scroll/rotary encoder, a red
7-segment LED display, a speaker, and USB-C for power. The encoder does
everything: spin = tempo, press = start/stop, hold + spin = switch track
(the LED shows the track number, with BPM / TRACK / ▶ indicators). Tracks =
the editor's seed grooves flattened (23). Shares src/engine.js, setlists.js,
base.css; synth-only; steady practice loop (ramps/bars ignored).

New /player-asbuilt.html showing the PM-1 with parts you'd actually solder
for an RP2040 build, alongside the idealized /player.html:
- 128×64 MONOCHROME OLED (SSD1306 class): rendered as a true 1-bit
framebuffer — drawn, then thresholded to crisp on/off pixels and scaled
with image-rendering:pixelated — so the cramped real layout is honest
(position / big BPM / grouping / scrolling name / bar·beat).
- Fixed 16-px WS2812 ("NeoPixel") RGB beat bar on a strip PCB: lights the
first beatsPerBar slots (cyan downbeats, amber group-starts, dim others),
the rest dark — showing the fixed-count hardware honestly.
- EC11 rotary encoder you actually turn (wheel / vertical drag) for tempo,
tactile buttons, MAX98357A-style speaker grille, USB-C, PWR LED, matte case.
Shares the same firmware via src/engine.js + src/setlists.js (same seed set
lists, same scheduler); only the panel rendering differs. The device is fixed
dark hardware; the page chrome follows light/dark/system. build.sh + deploy.sh
now assemble/serve all three pages; player.html links to it ("As-built ↗").

The source index.html now keeps small @BUILD:* markers instead of the
~250KB of base64 blobs (audio samples, logos, favicon), which move to
assets/. build.sh inlines them into a self-contained dist/index.html
(+ dist/player.html); deploy.sh runs the build first and serves dist/.
dist/ is git-ignored. Keeps the single-file deploy while stopping the
samples from eating the editing budget.
Also reframe the main page as the full web app (it is not a mockup —
only the play-only player.html device is): drop "Mockup" from the title,
the source comment, and the README intro; add Build/Files docs and
correct the "no build step" claim.

A self-contained simulator of the RP2040 "PM-1" unit: it plays the share
language (synth voices, same scheduler) and drives an OLED + beat-LED
display like the firmware would. Loads from a #p=/#sl= link, the editor's
saved set lists (localStorage), or a pasted patch / set-list code — with
validation. Transport: play/stop, prev/next item, tempo ±, tap; bar-count
segments auto-advance. deploy.sh now version-stamps and publishes it too.

- Each meter lane has an 'enable' checkbox right after its number (default on,
green-dim row when off); replaces the right-side 'mute'. Renamed mute→enabled
throughout (scheduler, snapshot, share '!' flag, 1–9 keys, now-playing). Old
saved data still loads (back-compat).
- Features area redesigned into highlighting boxes (Gap trainer / Tempo ramp /
Timers); trainer & ramp boxes light up + un-dim when enabled.
- Set list 'Continue' mode: per-item countdown (saved in each item, 'cd' token),
and when a playing item's countdown hits 0 it auto-loads the next — so a list
with countdowns plays straight through.
- Removed the in-app QR (vendored qrcode.js); 'QR ↗' now opens api.qrserver.com
with the link, behind a banner warning it's a third party (verify it decodes).

- Share menu now opens a dialog with a copyable link AND a QR code (scan to open
on a phone); generated locally by vendored qrcode-generator (MIT). deploy.sh
publishes qrcode.js alongside index.html.
- README documents the share language grammar, sounds, URL forms, shortcuts,
versioning and deploy.

- VERSION holds the formal version (0.0.1), single source of truth.
- deploy.sh stamps the served HTML: "X.Y.Z" on a clean commit tagged v<VERSION>,
else "X.Y.Z-dev.<utc-ts>.<sha>[.dirty]".
- index.html shows the build version in the header badge (APP_VERSION).
- release.sh cuts a formal release (sets VERSION + tags v<VERSION>).

index.html: single-file browser mockup of the polymetric groove trainer —
stackable meter lanes, subdivisions, odd-meter grouping, per-beat patterns,
GM percussion voices, true ratio polyrhythm (poly toggle), presets, set
lists with a recordable practice log, and keyboard shortcuts.
deploy.sh: copies index.html into the Caddy web root that serves
https://metronome.varasys.io (no restart needed).
