description	Create a dashboard panel component using vanilla TypeScript DOM API, following the worldmonitor Panel architecture. Panels have a header with title/count, scrollable content area, loading/error states, and resize handles.

Panel Component Pattern

Create dashboard panel components using vanilla TypeScript (no framework, no JSX). Each panel is a class extending a Panel base class.

Architecture Overview

Panel (base class)
├── element: HTMLElement (outer container, .panel)
│   ├── header: HTMLElement (.panel-header)
│   │   ├── headerLeft (.panel-header-left)
│   │   │   ├── title (.panel-title)
│   │   │   └── newBadge (.panel-new-badge) [optional]
│   │   ├── statusBadge (.panel-data-badge) [optional]
│   │   └── countEl (.panel-count) [optional]
│   ├── content: HTMLElement (.panel-content)
│   └── resizeHandle (.panel-resize-handle)

Base Panel Class (Simplified for this project)

Create src/components/Panel.ts:

export interface PanelOptions {
  id: string;
  title: string;
  showCount?: boolean;
  className?: string;
}

export class Panel {
  protected element: HTMLElement;
  protected content: HTMLElement;
  protected header: HTMLElement;
  protected countEl: HTMLElement | null = null;
  protected panelId: string;
  private _fetching = false;

  constructor(options: PanelOptions) {
    this.panelId = options.id;
    this.element = document.createElement('div');
    this.element.className = `panel ${options.className || ''}`;
    this.element.dataset.panel = options.id;

    // Header
    this.header = document.createElement('div');
    this.header.className = 'panel-header';

    const headerLeft = document.createElement('div');
    headerLeft.className = 'panel-header-left';

    const title = document.createElement('span');
    title.className = 'panel-title';
    title.textContent = options.title;
    headerLeft.appendChild(title);
    this.header.appendChild(headerLeft);

    // Count badge (optional)
    if (options.showCount) {
      this.countEl = document.createElement('span');
      this.countEl.className = 'panel-count';
      this.countEl.textContent = '0';
      this.header.appendChild(this.countEl);
    }

    // Content area
    this.content = document.createElement('div');
    this.content.className = 'panel-content';
    this.content.id = `${options.id}Content`;

    this.element.appendChild(this.header);
    this.element.appendChild(this.content);
    this.showLoading();
  }

  public getElement(): HTMLElement { return this.element; }

  public showLoading(message = 'Loading...'): void {
    this.content.innerHTML = `
      <div class="panel-loading">
        <div class="panel-loading-spinner"></div>
        <div class="panel-loading-text">${message}</div>
      </div>`;
  }

  public showError(message = 'Failed to load', onRetry?: () => void): void {
    this.content.innerHTML = `
      <div class="panel-error-state">
        <div class="panel-error-msg">${message}</div>
        ${onRetry ? '<button class="panel-retry-btn" data-panel-retry>Retry</button>' : ''}
      </div>`;
    if (onRetry) {
      this.content.querySelector('[data-panel-retry]')?.addEventListener('click', onRetry);
    }
  }

  public setContent(html: string): void {
    this.content.innerHTML = html;
  }

  public setCount(count: number): void {
    if (this.countEl) this.countEl.textContent = count.toString();
  }

  public show(): void { this.element.classList.remove('hidden'); }
  public hide(): void { this.element.classList.add('hidden'); }

  protected setFetching(v: boolean): void { this._fetching = v; }
  protected get isFetching(): boolean { return this._fetching; }

  public destroy(): void {
    this.element.remove();
  }
}

Creating a Concrete Panel (Example: StockPanel)

Each panel extends Panel and manages its own data fetching + rendering:

import { Panel } from './Panel';

interface StockQuote {
  symbol: string;
  name: string;
  price: number | null;
  change: number | null;
  sparkline?: number[];
}

export class StockPanel extends Panel {
  private refreshTimer: ReturnType<typeof setInterval> | null = null;

  constructor() {
    super({ id: 'stocks', title: 'Stock Market', showCount: true });
    this.fetchData();
    this.refreshTimer = setInterval(() => this.fetchData(), 60_000);
  }

  private async fetchData(): Promise<void> {
     (.) ;
    .();
     {
       quotes =  (); 
      .(quotes);
      .(quotes.);
    }  (err) {
      .(,  .());
    }  {
      .();
    }
  }

   (: []):  {
     rows = quotes.( ).();

    .();
  }

    ():  {
     (.) (.);
    .();
  }
}

Key Patterns

1. Constructor calls super() with panel config, then triggers initial data fetch
2. fetchData() is async, uses isFetching guard, shows error on failure with retry
3. render() builds HTML strings and calls this.setContent(html)
4. destroy() cleans up timers and event listeners
5. Use showLoading() during initial load (auto-called in constructor)
6. Use showError(msg, retryFn) on failure
7. Sparkline SVGs use inline <svg> with <polyline> — see sparkline utility

Sparkline Utility

export function miniSparkline(data: number[] | undefined, change: number | null, w = 50, h = 16): string {
  if (!data || data.length < 2) return '';
  const min = Math.min(...data);
  const max = Math.max(...data);
  const range = max - min || 1;
  const color = change != null && change >= 0 ? 'var(--green)' : 'var(--red)';
  const points = data.map((v, i) => {
    const x = (i / (data.length - 1)) * w;
    const y = h - ((v - min) / range) * (h - 2) - 1;
    return `${x.toFixed(1)},${y.toFixed(1)}`;
  }).join(' ');
  return `<svg width="${w}" height="${h}" viewBox="0 0 ${w} "><polyline points="" fill="none" stroke="" stroke-width="1.2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"/></svg>`;
