Squash of experiment/ff-big-modules vs main.
Big-module routing removed: native-EH shrank kicad_editor below
SpiderMonkey's x86-64 code budget (runs 29355049705/29356152413 green on
stock Firefox), so BIG_MODULE_SPECS routing and the baseline-only-JIT
crutch are gone — kicad-firefox and kicad-chromium both run the full
suite, with the module compiled the way real users' browsers compile it.
Per-engine screenshots end to end: stableShot/shotPath write
test-results/<engine>/<name>.png; baselines move to
baseline-screenshots/{chromium,firefox}/ and the whole tools/screenshots
pipeline (compare/promote/manifest/spec-map/changelog/Discord) keys on
<engine>/<name>. Previously Firefox and Chromium renders of one spec
overwrote each other and Firefox renders were never actually gated.
Seeded from CI run 29421380806 (92 new firefox baselines, +24 chromium
web-suite shots); manifest generated from the baseline tree.
One merged playwright.config.ts (kicad/asyncify/coroutine/perf as
projects); ~25 dead npm scripts dropped. The web suite is gated in CI for
the first time ever (4 rotted specs fixed, 5 broken lib-bridge specs
triaged as fixme in docs/features/web-e2e-rot/); cheap lint step after
npm ci; last 26 blind-sleep violations fixed.
SwiftShader retired: CI Chromium renders WebGL on ANGLE → Mesa llvmpipe
(--use-gl=angle --use-angle=gl --ignore-gpu-blocklist; the blocklist flag
is mandatory — llvmpipe is blocklisted and WebGL is silently unavailable
without it) in BOTH configs. Under WORKERS=4 congestion SwiftShader
transiently failed the first post-board-load draw and the recovery
cascade ended in a silent permanent Cairo fallback — that engine flip was
the "~1.2% changedRatio both directions" occ-export baseline flake.
Validated 160/160 across two 80-repeat rigs; full analysis in
docs/features/wx-parity-bugs/occ-export-context-eviction.md. Chromium
baselines shift slightly on llvmpipe — promote once from the first green
run. Deflakes the new coverage exposed: presence baselines settle before
capture; presence fixtures declare current file formats; perf gets its
own outputDir so CI evidence survives; occ-export settles the board paint
before the export dialog; menu-item waits (waitForRenderedByLabel before
clickMenuItem) in 4 specs + the TESTING.md rule.
Web suite runs the PROD build, in parallel: webServer becomes backend
`start` + the standalone's e2e:preview (build-preview.mjs: link-wasm →
stash the public/wasm symlink aside during vite build, build-demo.mjs's
move — then vite preview as the persistent server). The wasm middleware
serves /wasm/* in preview and emits COOP/COEP/CORP itself (a pthread
worker script's own response must carry COEP or Chrome kills it with
ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE). VITE_* flags bake at build time;
VITE_ALLOW_USER_OVERRIDE joins turbo globalEnv. fullyParallel + default
workers: 5.2m → 1.4m. Determinism fixes the parallel run exposed:
shared-page specs become serial groups; locks.spec grabs alice's exact
item via the new kicadCollabTestSelectByUuid hook (cross-tab "first
footprint" order is not a ysync invariant); quit specs poll page.url()
(quit supersedes its own navigation — NS_BINDING_ABORTED on Firefox).
Suite: 51 passed / 12 skipped / 0 failed in 1.6m.
CI-coverage gate (lint:ci-coverage): every tests/**/*.spec.ts must be
reachable from the npm scripts the workflows invoke — scraped from
.github/workflows/, resolved through package.json, coverage asked from
playwright --list itself. Rules: uncovered-spec + orphan-project (with a
documented LOCAL_ONLY_PROJECTS allowlist). Gating next to
lint:determinism; 138 spec files / 13 projects accounted for.
Product fixes kept from the investigations (reachable on real GPUs too):
wx 7799fd1be5 — paint flags clear before dispatch + Invalidate always
propagates; kicad 3dcfea5e45 — SwiftShader pass-boundary flush +
per-instance font texture + first-frame GL-error drain (GAL recovery
recovers instead of falling back to Cairo) + the user-facing eeschema
switch navigates again under __EMSCRIPTEN__ (project-sync's
FaceRegistered gate had rerouted it into the hidden sync player; caught
by the newly-gated web suite).

Documentation Map
A central index of the documentation in this repo. The goal of the project is to build KiCad with WASM and run it in a browser.
Note: per-area
README.mdfiles stay next to the code they describe (they're linked below). Cross-cutting guides live underdocs/. Per-feature design notes live underfeatures/.
Start here
- Project README — overview, prerequisites, quick start, project structure
- CLAUDE.md — project/agent context and contribution conventions
Build
- docs/build.md — Docker-based KiCad WASM build system (two-phase build, outputs, memory)
- docker/README.md — Docker build environment, branch-specific containers, troubleshooting
- wasm/README.md — WASM compatibility layer (overrides/shims without patching KiCad)
Debugging & Asyncify
- docs/debugging/DEBUG.md — debugging guide: Asyncify stalls vs crashes, shim/codegen coupling, stub-bisection
- docs/debugging/learning.md — Asyncify + consecutive modal dialogs: the lock pattern
- docs/research/threading_1.md — deep dive: the Asyncify single-slot
currDatacollision bug and the fix - docs/research/threading_2.md — external research: JSPI/WasmFX/state-machine alternatives, QEMU analysis
Architecture
- wasm/README.md — WASM compatibility layer structure
- web/README.md — web app (create/open KiCad projects), tech stack, URL routing, WASM artifact serving
Testing
- tests/README.md — Playwright test infrastructure, element registry, logs, screenshots
- tests/WHATWORKS.md — wxWidgets-in-WASM feature coverage matrix and KiCad readiness
- tests/GL_README.md — Emscripten legacy GL immediate-mode quirks (color-per-vertex)

Feature design docs
Per-feature design notes and porting records live under features/:
- web-init — web app spec
- schematic — eeschema WASM bring-up
- symbol-editor — symbol editor (eeschema kiface launcher)
- gerbview — Gerber viewer port
- pl-editor — page-layout editor port (incl. file-dialog usability fixes)
- browser-tools — tool-activation / coroutine deep dives
- fix-asyncify-O2-and-modal-promise-rejection — RTree wasm overflow bug investigation
