priority for v0.1.0

  • ability to modify the amount of each voter
  • show the currently selected method and round-number
  • save current election to localStorage and add reset button
  • fix errors for edge cases (0 candidates, 0 voters, negative voter weight, etc)

features

  • come up with a nice visualization for pairwise matrices
  • change the pairwise matrix in ElectionCache so it uses ballotsScored
  • redo the whole bar chart system:
    • create a Bar class
    • create a common BarChart component that can be used for all charts
    • bar chart settings passed in from parent blocks
  • blocks
    • show round number,
    • method name,
    • and winners
    • click on round number to pause
  • SuperElection2
    • use the Cache class
    • rewrite all the methods to utilize the new Cache object
    • store winners for each Cache object
    • do we really have to regenerate the whole object everytime a candidate is removed?
    • make the election method results return more info (e.g. signed should show the number for/against)
  • settings icon next to selected method if it has extra options like tie-breaking methods or being calculated with incomplete ballots
  • more docs/info
    • add references for each method
    • alternative names
    • mathematical properties
    • electowiki / wikipedia link if existing
    • consolidate all voting method info
  • fancy star pattern for the winner
  • a way for user to see voter preference ratings
  • show numbers on bars... somehow (on hover?)
  • figure out a nice solution for a shitton of candidates
  • make a particular election shareable by url
  • show a threshold line for relevant methods (passed in from parent blocks)
  • give a max size to the voter list and make overflow scrollable
  • support for alternative datasets
    • each dataset has its own data structure and distance calculating method
    • custom datasets with manually entered preferences
  • make the method options scrollable with a max-width (50%?) to support longer method names
  • improve the title text showing voter preferences
  • removing a candidate/voter should set selected to the removed candidate/voter
  • change the app icon for mobile to not have transparent background
  • create an About page with an FAQ
  • secret menu for debugging and things I like to do like randomly select n+1 voters m times
  • on small screens, make block method switcher and block title on separate lines
  • clicking "show explanation" should scroll to top
  • shift + clicking shuffle will also randomly change the amount
  • ability to sort rosters by name, weight, order, etc
  • click on a color to copy scores to clipboard as json (toggleable)
  • click on title of voting block to toggle between expanded (with graphs) and collapsed (only winners)
  • CTRL+Z to undo (will probably need useReducer and useContext)
  • achievements
    • e.g. with at least 6 * N voters, find N candidates where each wins at least one (untied)
      • I guess the largest N possible is the number of voting systems lol (prolly less)
      • keep track of highest variety of voters with this achieved
    • make an "account" (bookbook-esque) to compare (e.g. 12% of people also got this achievement)
  • make roster controls scroll with scroll shadows instead of wrapping
  • export to csv
  • import from csv?
  • ability to close the statbox like the infobox
  • title for method switcher should show full name
  • hcv (aka hcg) color space
  • there's a lot of hidden functionality. Pro-tips at the bottom of the page like github has could be helpful
  • to reduce bundle size for data, just save the rgb arrays instead and then use lazy loading magic to convert to hsl, hex, etc as needed (and make sure to cache!)

fix

  • what the hell is happening with that hover effect over the <text> of empty bars??
  • nice() the scales
  • site broken on safari mobile
  • really smol bars are hard to hover over...
  • all the runoff methods are broken when there's a tie
  • don't overlap x-axis tick labels
  • adding more voters to one already on the list doesn't upload the count in the display
  • netlify breaks if trying to open Link in new tab
  • clean up styling on mobile devices and across browsers
    • mobile & safari: consistency in unicode/emoji formatting
    • safari-iphone: why is the select text blue on my iphone?
    • firefox: bar text invisible past bar
    • firefox: chart sizing is off
    • safari-mac: scroll shadows are fuqqed
    • safari-mac: rainbow text doesn't do fancy transition
  • contingency methods still have 2 rounds even if there's a majority winner
  • veto method doesn't thicken border around winner sometimes (e.g. no non-zero winners)
  • random candidate/voter button might choose one that's not in the list of options
  • when resetting voters to preset, number display doesn't change if a voter is in both lists
  • copeland and lull score is wrong because it compares candidates against themselves lol
  • tab order skips buttons on safari
  • tab order skips method switcher in blocks
  • in voter roster, square may get squished and color names show on multiple lines
  • when the method is switched and the y-axis varies drastically, bars don't smoothly transition
  • zomming in on Safari and the wheel for number inputs also shrinks??
  • 1 candidate with 0 voters leads to crash
  • some methods return results that don't include all candidates

longterm

  • open it up for external contributions
    • clean up the code
      • organize typescript types into a separate file
      • remove as any typescript stuff
    • PR templates, issue templates, etc

      • how the SuperElection system works
    • use GitHub versioning
    • use GitHub issues instead of TODO.md

sidequests

  • disttint: see most related colors and compare different distancing methods

  • votegame: a game where you try to manipulate voting systems
    • achievements: e.g. find an election that results in different baldwin and nanson results
    • get the largest number of different candidates as winners
  • individual subpages for each method
  • voting service like votyvote
  • make-your-own voting systems
    • runoff
      • drop_condition (e.g. all candidates with less than average copeland score, least of borda score, etc)
      • win_condition (e.g. more than 50% of remaining first-choice votes)
    • weighted positional
      • vector constructor
