Plate Diagram

[covracer]

Background and Links

• Diagrams/maps/tables of plate contents should help people review them for correctness
• I experimented with an SVG plate diagram, but the drawn circles and text weren't vertically aligned

Changes and Testing

• Bump tooling
• Add backend-generated table HTML
  

Questions and Followup

• How to "progressively", in the spirit of a Progressive Web Application (PWA) I think, make the "Bottom right prefix" and "Diagram" update with preview values in real time as their inputs change? Some similar seeming code exists in Django for "prepopulated_fields", implemented in jquery.
• Other related Django functionality I've discovered is MultiValueField. Should bottom_row, right_column, and prefix be demoted from first-class models to properties, annotations, or GeneratedFields, and the compressed bottom_right_prefix representation of them become the sole admin interface representation, as a MultiValueField?
• Alpine.js looks really nice but I don't see a lot of Django admin integration examples. In particular, I'm not sure how to add x-data to a big enough <div> tag without pretty elaborate template overrides.

Nice

I have the same conclusions in my own pre-commit toolchains, fun to see us converging

I like to use match kwarg to tighten up these assertions further, I have seen drift in errors with same type happen before

Also, feel free to ignore this
