For ireland variant: - Filter hotspots to Ireland coordinates (51.4-55.5 lat, -10.5 to -5.5 lon) - Filter news locations to same region
FEEDS export was missing ireland case, falling back to FULL_FEEDS
Since backend doesn't have Ireland-specific digests, always use direct RSS fetching for Ireland variant.
Allow API access for Ireland Monitor variant without API key
_cors.js also needed to allow ireland-monitor.vercel.app
Add Silicon Republic, Tech Central, Business Plus, Irish Tech News, Irish Times, Independent.ie, RTE, EU Startups, Tech.eu, Sifted
Middleware was blocking rss-proxy due to bot/UA checks
Add irelandAICompanies and irelandUniversities to VARIANT_LAYER_ORDER.ireland so they appear in the LAYERS panel with toggle checkboxes. Before: LAYERS panel only showed 8 layers for Ireland variant After: LAYERS panel shows 10 layers including AI Companies and Universities - Add 'irelandAICompanies' after 'irishUnicorns' - Add 'irelandUniversities' after AI Companies - Users can now toggle these layers on/off from the panel Closes #162

Closes #168
Remove cloudRegions from Ireland variant to eliminate visual overlap with Data Centers layer. Users prefer precise physical location markers over abstract cloud service region circles. Changes: - Remove 'cloudRegions' from VARIANT_LAYER_ORDER.ireland array - Set cloudRegions: false in IRELAND_MAP_LAYERS Before: LAYERS panel showed both ☁ Cloud Regions and 🏢 Data Centers After: LAYERS panel shows only 🏢 Data Centers (Ireland) with precise markers Data Centers layer provides: - Exact building locations (not coverage circles) - Physical addresses - Cloud region info in popup details Closes #170
…173) Add type field to data centers and color by type on the map: - Cloud providers (blue #3B82F6): AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle - Colocation (purple #8B5CF6): Equinix, Digital Realty, Servecentric, etc. - Tech company (orange #F97316): Meta, Apple - Telecom (green #10B981): Eir, BT Ireland, GlobalConnect Changes: - data-centers.ts: Add DataCenterType, expand from 11 to 25 facilities - DeckGLMap.ts: Color by type instead of operator brand colors - DeckGLMap.ts: Update Legend with 4 data center type entries - MapPopup.ts: Show type icon and label in popup header New data centers added: - Oracle Cloud Dublin - Equinix DB3 - Digital Realty DUB11 - Servecentric Blanchardstown - EdgeConneX Dublin - CyrusOne Dublin - Vantage Dublin - Apple Athenry - Eir Park West, Eir Citywest - BT Ireland Dublin - GlobalConnect Dublin Closes #172
Add submarine cables and landing stations visualization: - New submarine-cables.ts with 12 cables and 3 landing stations - PathLayer for cable lines with color coding by destination: - Transatlantic (orange #F97316): Hibernia Express, AEC-1 - UK (blue #3B82F6): CeltixConnect, Emerald Bridge, ESAT-2, EXA - Europe (green #10B981): Havhingsten, EXA Express - Planned (purple #8B5CF6): IRIS, Fastnet, Beaufort - IconLayer for landing stations (Dublin, Galway, Cork) - Landing stations use red (#EF4444) to distinguish from data centers - Popup support for cables and landing stations - Legend updated with cable types and landing station marker - Added submarineCables to MapLayers type and all variant configs - Default enabled for Ireland variant Closes #174
) Replace PathLayer with GreatCircleLayer for submarine cables: - Cables now display as curved arcs following Great Circle routes - More accurate representation of actual cable paths - Transatlantic cables (Hibernia Express, AEC-1) show visible northern arc - Short Ireland-UK cables have subtle curves Changes: - DeckGLMap.ts: Use GreatCircleLayer from @deck.gl/geo-layers - DeckGLMap.ts: Convert cable paths to segments (source/target pairs) - DeckGLMap.ts: Extract original cable from CableSegment for popup - submarine-cables.ts: Add CableSegment interface - index.ts: Export CableSegment type Technical details: - GreatCircleLayer numSegments: 50 for smooth curves - Multi-point cables (e.g., NY→Halifax→Dublin→London) rendered as connected segments, each following Great Circle route Closes #176
Integrate missing map layer news coverage: 1. ieTech feeds: Add AI Companies keywords - OpenAI Ireland, Anthropic Dublin, xAI Dublin, DeepMind Ireland 2. startups feeds: Add Accelerators & Startup Hubs - NDRC, Dogpatch Labs, Y Combinator Ireland, Techstars Dublin - Enterprise Ireland startups, Dublin startup ecosystem 3. NEW ieInfrastructure feeds: Data Centers + Submarine Cables - Data center news: Google, Microsoft, AWS, Meta, Equinix - Submarine cable news: Hibernia Express, AEC-1, IRIS - Cable landing stations, infrastructure investment 4. PANELS: Add ieInfrastructure panel (priority 9) Coverage summary: - AI Companies → ieTech ✅ - Startup Hubs → startups ✅ - Accelerators → startups ✅ - Data Centers → ieInfrastructure ✅ - Submarine Cables → ieInfrastructure ✅ Closes #178
Simplify map-locale.ts to always use English labels regardless of browser language setting. Changes: - Remove LANG_TO_TILE_FIELD mapping (no longer needed) - getLocalizedNameField() always returns 'name:en' - getLocalizedNameExpression() always returns English coalesce - Update tests to verify forced English behavior This ensures map place names (Ireland, Dublin, London, etc.) always display in English, not in the user's browser language. Closes #181
) Simplify i18n.ts to always use English regardless of browser settings. Changes: - Remove i18next-browser-languagedetector dependency - Remove LanguageDetector plugin usage - Set lng: 'en' to force English - Set supportedLngs: ['en'] to only support English - Clear localStorage 'i18nextLng' on init to remove cached preferences - Simplify getCurrentLanguage() to always return 'en' - Simplify isRTL() to always return false - Simplify getLocale() to always return 'en-US' - changeLanguage() now logs a warning and does nothing This ensures the UI always displays in English regardless of the user's browser language settings (Chinese, French, Japanese, etc.). Closes #183
The AI Summary feature is not implemented yet, causing user confusion when clicking the button (shows 'generating...' then nothing). Changes: - Comment out summaryBtn creation and event handling - Comment out handleSummarize function - Comment out showSummary, getCachedSummary, setCachedSummary helpers - Comment out SUMMARY_CACHE_TTL constant - Remove generateSummary import (no longer used) The button and related code are preserved as comments for when AI Summary is properly implemented in the future. Closes #186
…190) Replace GreatCircleLayer segments with PathLayer using pre-generated smooth paths. This fixes the polyline appearance where segments were joined by straight lines. Changes: - Add src/utils/geo-smooth-path.ts with generateSmoothGreatCirclePath() - Uses d3-geo geoInterpolate for Great Circle interpolation - Samples every 50km for smooth curves (min 20 points) - Modify createSubmarineCablesLayer() in DeckGLMap.ts: - Switch from GreatCircleLayer to PathLayer - Pre-generate smooth paths for each cable - Add capRounded/jointRounded for visual quality - Add tests/geo-smooth-path.test.mts (7 tests) Technical details: - GreatCircleLayer was splitting multi-waypoint cables into segments - Each segment had internal curve, but segments joined as straight lines - Now each cable is rendered as a single continuous smooth curve - Transatlantic cables now show proper northward Great Circle arc Closes #189
Expand path from 4 to 12 waypoints for smoother Great Circle curve. This is a pilot test before applying to other cables. New waypoints: - 1. New York (landing point) - 2. Atlantic West (offshore NY) - 3. Approaching Canadian coast - 4. Halifax (landing point) - 5. South of Newfoundland - 6. Mid-Atlantic (Great Circle apex at 51.5°N) - 7. Eastern Atlantic - 8. South of Iceland (apex at 53.5°N) - 9. West of Ireland - 10. Dublin (landing point) - 11. Irish Sea - 12. London (landing point) The curve now follows a natural northward arc across the Atlantic, matching the Great Circle geometry and TeleGeography visual style. Closes #191
…reat Circle arc (#194) Increase waypoints from 12 to 30 for a more accurate Great Circle arc that matches TeleGeography's visual style. Key improvements: - Maximum latitude: 53.5°N → 59.8°N (+6.3° improvement) - Great Circle apex at point 15 (-32°, 59.8°N) near Greenland - Path segments: - NY → Halifax: 7 points (coastal detail) - Halifax → Dublin: 20 points (main arc with northward curve) - Dublin → London: 3 points (short segment) Visual effect: - Before: Flat arc with max 53.5°N - After: Clear northward arc reaching 60°N, then descending to Dublin This completes the submarine cable visual optimization series (FR #189 smooth curves + FR #193 accurate waypoints). Closes #193
Three main improvements to fix RSS feed failures: 1. Enhanced browser-like headers in api/rss-proxy.js: - Updated Chrome version (120 → 122) - Added Referer, Accept-Encoding, Cache-Control headers - Added Sec-Fetch-* headers to mimic real browser navigation 2. Added Irish tech news sites to RELAY_ONLY_DOMAINS: - www.siliconrepublic.com - www.techcentral.ie - businessplus.ie These domains have aggressive anti-bot protection and return 403 errors from Vercel edge IPs. Routing through Railway relay provides a different IP that these sites accept. 3. Implemented exponential backoff in src/services/rss.ts: - Initial cooldown: 1 minute (was fixed 5 minutes) - Doubles on each failure: 1min → 2min → 4min → 8min → 16min - Max cooldown: 30 minutes - Prevents rapid retry loops that worsen rate limiting Expected improvement: RSS success rate from 40% to 90%+ Closes #195
…performance (#198) * feat(FR #196): implement LOD for submarine cables to improve Deck.gl performance Add Level of Detail (LOD) mechanism for submarine cable rendering to reduce buildLayers time from 21-43ms to <16ms at low zoom levels. New functions in src/utils/geo-smooth-path.ts: - getCableLODLevel(zoom): Returns 'minimal'|'reduced'|'full' based on zoom - getCablePathWithLOD(path, level): Simplifies path based on LOD level LOD levels: - zoom < 5 (minimal): 2 points (start + end) - 93% reduction - zoom 5-8 (reduced): ~7 points (every 5th) - 80% reduction - zoom >= 8 (full): all 30 points - no change Performance improvement: | Zoom | Before | After | Reduction | |------|--------|-------|-----------| | < 5 | 360 pts | 24 pts | 93% | | 5-8 | 360 pts | 84 pts | 77% | | >= 8 | 360 pts | 360 pts | 0% | Added updateTriggers to PathLayer to ensure smooth LOD transitions when zooming. Added 8 unit tests for LOD functions. Closes #196 * fix: resolve biome lint errors in geo-smooth-path.ts - Wrap switch case 'reduced' in block to fix noSwitchDeclarations - Remove useless 'full' case since default handles it
Add MapLibre GL ScaleControl to display distance scale on the map. This helps users estimate distances between locations and understand the scale of submarine cables. Configuration: - Position: bottom-left (avoids conflict with right-side panels) - Unit: metric (km) - standard in Ireland/Europe - Max width: 100px The scale automatically updates when zooming/panning the map. Closes #199
…#210) Implement code splitting for DeckGLMap (~2MB with maplibre+deck.gl) and GlobeMap to improve Time to First Contentful Paint. Changes: - Convert static imports to type-only imports for DeckGLMap and GlobeMap - Add initAsync() method with dynamic imports for map components - Show loading skeleton while map is being loaded - Convert switchToGlobe() to async for lazy loading How it works: 1. MapContainer shows a skeleton immediately 2. DeckGLMap/GlobeMap are loaded asynchronously via dynamic import() 3. Vite automatically splits these into separate chunks 4. Main bundle no longer blocks on 2MB of map code Expected improvements: - Main chunk reduced by ~2MB (maplibre + deck-stack) - Faster Time to Interactive - Data panels render before map initialization Closes #201
* feat(FR #202): lazy load ML worker to reduce initial bundle size Implement deferred loading for ML components (ONNX Runtime + Transformers.js) to improve Time to First Contentful Paint. Changes: - src/services/ml-worker.ts: - Convert static worker import to dynamic import() - Worker chunk (~1MB) is now fetched only when ML is first needed - src/App.ts: - Defer mlWorker.init() using requestIdleCallback - ML initialization happens after critical rendering path completes - Fallback to setTimeout(1000) for browsers without requestIdleCallback How it works: 1. App renders immediately without blocking on ML 2. After idle (or 1s/5s timeout), ML worker is lazily imported 3. ONNX models are loaded only when AI features are enabled Expected improvements: - Main bundle no longer includes ML worker code - First paint is not blocked by ML initialization - ~800KB-1MB removed from critical path Closes #202 * fix: resolve biome noAsyncPromiseExecutor lint error
…paint (#212) Add priority-based data loading to ensure critical content (Breaking News) renders first, improving perceived performance. Changes: - src/config/load-priorities.ts: - Define LoadPriority enum (CRITICAL, HIGH, NORMAL, LOW) - Configure priority for each data loader task - Define delays: CRITICAL=0ms, HIGH=100ms, NORMAL=3s, LOW=5s - Add groupTasksByPriority helper function - src/app/data-loader.ts: - Replace flat batch loading with priority-phased loading - Phase 1: CRITICAL tasks load immediately (news) - Phase 2: HIGH tasks load after 100ms (markets, cables) - Phase 3: NORMAL tasks load on requestIdleCallback or 3s - Phase 4: LOW tasks load after 5s (satellites, analytics) - tests/load-priorities.test.mts: - Test priority ordering and task grouping - Test delay configuration - Test default priority fallback Expected improvements: - Breaking News visible within 1 second - Main content visible within 2 seconds - Non-essential data loads without blocking UI Closes #203
…es (#213) Add runtime caching rules for map tile providers to improve repeat visitor performance. Tiles are cached using CacheFirst strategy. Changes: - vite.config.ts: Add two new runtimeCaching rules - mapbox-tiles: Cache *.tiles.mapbox.com/* (7 days, 500 entries) - maptiler-tiles: Cache api.maptiler.com/* (7 days, 500 entries) Caching strategy: - CacheFirst: Return cached tiles immediately, never re-fetch - 7-day expiration: Balance freshness vs storage - 500 entry limit: Prevent excessive storage use Existing configuration (unchanged): - VitePWA already configured with autoUpdate - JS/CSS already cached via globPatterns - PMTiles and Protomaps already cached - vercel.json already has immutable headers for /assets/* Closes #204
Add stale-while-revalidate caching to briefs endpoint: - max-age: 300s (5 min browser cache) - s-maxage: 600s (10 min edge cache) - stale-while-revalidate: 1200s (20 min serve stale) This reduces latency for repeat visitors and lowers server load. Note: Other APIs already have caching configured: - rss-proxy.js: Already has Cache-Control headers - forecast RPC: Already configured in gateway.ts (medium tier) - Other RPC endpoints: Already configured in server/gateway.ts Closes #205
Remove youtubei.js (21 MB) which is not imported anywhere in the codebase. Audit performed: - grep -r 'from .youtubei' src/ api/ server/ → no results - grep -r 'Innertube' src/ api/ server/ → no results Dependencies kept (actually used): - convex: Used in api/contact.js (ConvexHttpClient) - globe.gl: Used in GlobeMap.ts (lazy loaded via FR #201) - onnxruntime-web: Used in ml.worker.ts (lazy loaded via FR #202) - @xenova/transformers: Used in ml.worker.ts (lazy loaded via FR #202) Total reduction: ~21 MB in node_modules Closes #206
Phase 1 of DeckGLMap.ts component split: Extract 3 layer factories to src/components/map/layers/: - submarine-cables-layer.ts: Great Circle cable paths with LOD - landing-stations-layer.ts: Cable landing point markers - cloud-regions-layer.ts: AWS/Azure/GCP region markers New structure: src/components/map/ ├── layers/ │ ├── submarine-cables-layer.ts (77 lines) │ ├── landing-stations-layer.ts (39 lines) │ ├── cloud-regions-layer.ts (49 lines) │ └── index.ts (re-exports) └── types.ts (shared types) Benefits: - Each layer is now independently testable - Clearer separation of concerns - Foundation for lazy loading layers - DeckGLMap.ts reduced from 6134 to 6053 lines (-81 lines) Total lines extracted: ~199 lines of focused, reusable code Tests added: - Directory structure validation - Module export verification - Integration checks for DeckGLMap.ts Closes #207
Create panel-specific skeleton loading states that match actual content layout to minimize Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). New skeleton components in src/components/skeletons/: - NewsPanelSkeleton.ts: Headline + meta row placeholders - MarketPanelSkeleton.ts: Ticker + price + sparkline placeholders - InsightsPanelSkeleton.ts: Card layout with metrics - ChartSkeleton.ts: Chart area with X/Y axis placeholders - index.ts: Re-exports all skeletons All components support: - Configurable row counts - Optional feature toggles (showChart, showMetrics, etc.) - Accessibility (role=status, aria-label, aria-hidden) - Light/dark theme compatibility CSS additions to skeleton.css: - Panel-specific skeleton styles - Shimmer animation on key elements - Light theme overrides - Proper sizing to match actual content Tests added: - Directory structure validation - Module export verification - CSS class presence checks - Feature option coverage Closes #208
Create a virtual scrolling utility to render only visible items

```typescript
const scroller = createVirtualScroller({
itemHeight: 80,
containerHeight: 400,
overscan: 5,
});
const visible = scroller.getVisibleItems(allItems, scrollTop);
// Render only visible items with transform positioning
```
Tests added:
- Range calculation tests
- Visible items tests
- Edge cases (empty list, scroll boundaries)
- Helper function tests
Closes #209
