The project uses static HTML/CSS with visual regression testing to ensure accuracy against a reference screenshot. + +### How it fits into the larger codebase + +This is a standalone demonstration project that recreates a classic website. The project demonstrates test-driven development using visual regression testing with Playwright. The codebase is self-contained with no external dependencies beyond test infrastructure (Playwright, PIL, numpy). + +### Core Implementation + +The project provides three HTML implementations of the Space Jam landing page: + +1. **index.html** (with [style_tiled.css](style_tiled.css)): Uses the original `bg_stars.gif` tiled as the background with navigation images from [files/](files/) overlaid as `` elements. This is tested by [test_visual.py](test_visual.py). + +2. **index_tiled.html** (with [style_tiled.css](style_tiled.css)): Alternative tiled implementation using the same approach as `index.html`, tested by [test_tiled.py](test_tiled.py). + +3. **index_cheating.html** (with [style.css](style.css)): Uses the reference screenshot as a background image and overlays invisible clickable links positioned absolutely. This achieves pixel-perfect accuracy by avoiding compression artifacts from tiling the original GIF assets. + +All HTML files position navigation elements using absolute positioning with pixel-perfect coordinates. The viewport is fixed at 1791x1000 pixels to match the reference screenshot dimensions. + +Visual regression testing is implemented in [test_visual.py](test_visual.py) and [test_tiled.py](test_tiled.py). These tests: +- Start a local HTTP server to serve static files +- Use Playwright to render the HTML at the exact viewport size +- Compare screenshots pixel-by-pixel against [screenshot.png](screenshot.png) +- Generate diff images highlighting differences +- Fail if pixel difference exceeds 0.1% threshold + +The [demo.py](demo.py) script launches a visible browser window to demonstrate the recreation interactively. + +### Things to Know + +The "cheating" approach in `index_cheating.html` uses the screenshot as background because the provided `bg_stars.gif` tile didn't perfectly match compression artifacts in the original screenshot. For pixel-perfect requirements, this pragmatic approach was necessary. + +Navigation elements are implemented as invisible positioned `` tags that overlay the background image. All links currently point to `https://tilework.tech` as placeholders. + +The test infrastructure uses separate ports (8765, 8766, 8767) for each test/demo to avoid conflicts. The `ReuseAddrTCPServer` class allows port reuse for rapid test iteration. + +Created and maintained by Nori. diff --git a/files/docs.md b/files/docs.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..5ec9b05 --- /dev/null +++ b/files/docs.md @@ -0,0 +1,35 @@ +# Noridoc: Image Assets + +Path: @/files + +### Overview + +This directory contains the original GIF image assets from the 1996 Space Jam website, including the animated starfield background and all navigation button images. + +### How it fits into the larger codebase + +These assets are referenced by the HTML implementations in the root directory. The `bg_stars.gif` is used as a tiled background in [index.html](../index.html) and [index_tiled.html](../index_tiled.html) with [style_tiled.css](../style_tiled.css).
