- Source Devices in the undocumented-apps list filters by device name, like
the software columns; Devices and the action column take less room.
- Drop the one-click documented pick (Documented + Only ticked does it).
- Stage legend underline spans label and number.
- Device details title stays on one line; the name truncates instead.
- Presence sweep also pings devices under Skip USMT tags.
- Every nav page has its own address (/tracked, /status, /devices, ...);
the logo and name go to the Overview; back/forward work.
- List filters gain an "Only ticked" mode; software columns get a one-click
"devices with only documented apps" pick and an easiest-first sort.
- Overview: the device list uses the dashboard's table header (sticky, with
Excel filters); what opened it is clearly highlighted; locations colored by
how much is done (red to green); stages read red / amber / green.
- Details: one-line title bar; presence and monitors only in Advanced View.
- Presence sweep pings only completed pairs (everything else is pinged by
the sweep itself), hourly and at midnight.
- Custom View scrollbar smaller, in the table header blue.
- Docs: no sideways scroll in the article list; no blank lines around code.
Articles get their own address (shareable, back/forward work); the list is
searchable by title and text, shows the article count, and is grouped into
Applications and Troubleshooting & Guides via a hidden category line set
from the editor. PDF export lays out at page width with page breaks, a title
block and page numbers; Print uses the browser's vector print. Inline code
is a pill that glows blue on hover, blockquotes no longer squeeze, and
GitHub-style [!NOTE] alerts render. [[Badge]] syntax inside code spans is
left alone.
Worker: pings every tracked device on a presence sweep (hourly in business
hours plus midnight) and records last online; inventory reports whether a
device was found in AD and SCCM; monitors from WmiMonitorID; snapshots of
the last reachable state replace "Cached"; newly tracked devices are swept
and published first; totals count source devices only; per-type timing in
Worker-State.
Front end: details dialog shows presence, reasons instead of N/A,
"Waiting for worker...", monitors and snapshot times, and refreshes in
place; Custom View gains Days Offline, Last Online, Found In and monitor
columns; manual pair changes show immediately; sync dialog shows timing by
type. Custom View gets a large scrollbar; "Exactly ticked" filter.
Custom View column drag rewritten with pointer events (replacing native
drag-and-drop): grab a column by its grip or anywhere on its header (a
click still sorts); the real column slides into the slot it would land
in as a translucent striped ghost while a label follows the pointer.
Only the horizontal position decides the slot. Esc cancels; data
refreshes wait until the drop; wide tables scroll near the edges.
Filters:
- List columns (software, tags): "Has any ticked" / "Has only ticked"
toggle - e.g. devices missing only Adobe Acrobat Pro
- Space columns: filter by disk size (221 GB, 442 GB, no reading) plus a
free-space rule (any / at least N GB / less than N GB, default 20); sort
by disk size or by free space (numeric, no reading last); header clicks
cancel these sorts
- Menu controls no longer shrink when the menu is height-limited
- Fix: sorting a software column stopped its filter listing apps
individually (the sort arrow written into the header changed the label
used to recognise list columns)
- "None" (nothing missing) is pinned to the top of the value list, so the
easy devices are one click away
- Software columns get "Documented" / "Undocumented" quick picks that
tick only apps with / without a knowledge-base article; documented apps
are marked in the list
- Custom View: remove Reset Filters / Reset Sort (Clear filters and the
column menus replace them); old saved filters are cleared since nothing
else could clear them
- Custom View column drag: a ghost of the column follows the cursor, the
column being moved is dimmed, and a line shows where it will land
- Custom View header now uses the browser's sticky positioning like the
other tables, so it no longer lags or bounces while scrolling. Because a
sideways-scrolling box prevents sticky headers, the table is clipped and
shifted sideways by a scrollbar pinned to the bottom of the window
(shown only when the columns are wider than the page; trackpad,
shift+wheel and touch swipes drive it too)
- Custom View header on one line like the other tables: drag grip, name,
the combined sort/filter dropdown and copy icon (remove on hover)
- Workbench stack text boxes size to their contents on load and when the
page is shown, not only while typing
- Demo sandbox waits for the worker's first sweep after a container
restart instead of treating every device as unknown
Filters (web/excel-filter.js), modeled on Excel's AutoFilter:
- Every column header gets a dropdown: Sort A to Z / Z to A, Clear Filter
From "<column>", Search, a checkbox list of the column's values with
(Select All) and (Blanks), OK / Cancel. Values come from rows passing
the other columns' filters; filters on several columns combine. Tags
and software lists are split into individual items.
- The button shows a funnel when filtered and an arrow when sorted, and a
"Clear filters (n)" button appears beside the group's copy buttons
- Replaces the old per-column filter row (which also removes the gap
between header and filter rows); hooks the existing filter passes so
global search, counts and worker re-renders keep working
- Menus are fixed-position on <body>, so sticky headers and neighbouring
tables can't cover them; on phones they open as a bottom sheet
- Workbench stacks get the same menus (sorting done client-side)
- Custom View's filter icon opens the same menu
Layout:
- Sticky headers use separated borders so no hairline gap opens
- Phones/tablets: a sticky bar of column chips (with active counts and
"Clear all") opens the filter menus
- Custom View fills the page like the other views on desktop; it still
scrolls sideways when wide, with its header pinned under the group header
- Custom View on phones/tablets: a "Card fields" sheet to choose, order
and remove the fields shown on each card
Demo: first visit puts 6 PCs (one per migration stage) on the Workbench.
- Status tables: the whole header (column names + filters) sticks as one
block, tucked 1px under the group header, so no gap can open between
the rows; offsets use fractional heights
- Phones/tablets: the filter panel sticks under the group header too, and
is opaque and compact (three filters per row on phones)
- Custom View: fix the group header being pushed over the column header
(it lives inside the view's own scroll box); the column header now pins
to the top of that box on desktop, and the header strip sticks on phones
- All Devices: group title is "All Devices (N)" instead of "Missing
Software", matching the page title count
- Documentation fits the window on desktop: only the article list and the
article scroll; placeholder no longer says "from the left"
- Dialogs sit above the terminal dock so it can't cover their last rows;
page bottom padding follows the dock's measured height
- Status group headers ("Not Started (37)") stick under the top nav while
scrolling through their group, on every screen size
- On desktop the column header and filter rows stick beneath the group
header (table wrappers no longer clip them; these fixed-layout tables
never scroll sideways at desktop widths)
- layout.js measures the nav, group header and header row heights so the
sticky rows stack without gaps, re-measuring on re-render/resize/scroll
- Phones: the Advanced/Simple View button sits on its own line under the
device name instead of floating over the dialog content
- Rename mobile.css/js to layout.css/js now that they hold desktop rules
Sideways-scrolling tables only showed a few of the 11 columns at a time on
a phone or iPad. Below 1100px (where the nav already collapses) each row
now renders as a card: the device as the title and every other column as
a labelled line, one card per row on phones and two or more on tablets.
- web/mobile.js copies column names onto cells (data-label) for the cards
and re-applies them as the dashboard re-renders; no-op on wide screens
- Column filters fold behind a "Show filters" button with an active count
- Custom View keeps its sort/filter header as a strip of chips
- Terminal: Follow and the "your actions (simulated)" legend move into the
terminal window's title bar; tabs read "Server" / "Worker" on phones, so
LIVE, the legend and Follow are all visible on small screens
- Add the missing viewport meta tag; phones were rendering the desktop
layout at 980px and shrinking it
- Add web/mobile.css (all rules inside max-width media queries, so desktop
is unchanged):
- data tables keep readable column widths and scroll sideways in their card
- group headers wrap their copy buttons and stay put while tables scroll
- Tracked Devices cards and the Documentation sidebar stack vertically
- modals fit the screen below the fixed nav; Advanced View's three
columns stack and the dialog scrolls as one
- 16px inputs on phones so iOS doesn't zoom on focus
- Terminal bar: compact tabs and a dot-only LIVE indicator on narrow
screens, taller panel in phone landscape, tighter demo dialog
- Replace the text triangle with an SVG chevron so it centers with the label
- Make the "your actions (simulated)" legend dot the same yellow as the
markers on simulated lines
- When live worker output was held back during a visitor's simulated
cycle, print a divider before flushing it so the jump is explained
Remove all environment-specific data and make the dashboard adoptable
anywhere, then add a demo that runs the real PowerShell services.
- Strip cached device data, internal knowledge-base articles and
screenshots, server/site names and the old project notes; replace the
knowledge base with generic sample articles and diagrams
- Move every environment value into Config/usmt-dash.psd1
- Route all infrastructure access in the worker and Get-Software.ps1
through a provider (Providers/SCCM.ps1), with a config-driven asset
inventory view instead of a hard-coded custom class
- Add Providers/Demo.ps1: a deterministic simulated fleet whose
migrations progress in real time, and Demo/New-DemoData.ps1 to seed it
- Server: -Demo makes the API read-only; add get-config and get-logs;
serve static files only from web/, Documentation/ and an allowlist of
Data/ files with a path-traversal guard; gzip large responses
- Mirror both services' console output to Data/Logs via a Write-Host
proxy, and add a terminal panel to the dashboard that streams it
- Demo sandbox (web/demo/demo.js): visitor changes to tags, articles and
images are kept in the visitor's browser and echoed in the terminals;
nothing a visitor does reaches the server
- Vendor marked, highlight.js and html2pdf.js instead of loading CDNs
- Dockerfile and compose file for hosting the demo (Coolify-ready)
