  Team update (2026-02-12): Milestone 4 planned  Chart component with Chart.js via JS interop. 8 work items, design review required before implementation.  decided by Forge + Squad
 
+- **Chart doc is first JS interop component:** The Chart component is unique in the library — it's the first to use JavaScript interop (Chart.js via ES module import). The doc template needed a new "HTML Output Exception" admonition pattern to explain why `<canvas>` replaces `<img>`. This pattern should be reused for any future components that deviate from identical HTML output.
+- **DeferredControls.md updated for partial implementation:** Chart moved from fully-deferred to partially-implemented. The DeferredControls page now has a dual role: documenting controls not implemented at all (Substitution, Xml) AND documenting unsupported sub-features of implemented controls (27 unsupported chart types). This "partially implemented" pattern may apply to future controls.
+- **Child component docs pattern:** Chart introduces a multi-component documentation pattern (Chart, ChartSeries, ChartArea, ChartLegend, ChartTitle) with separate parameter tables for each. This nested-component doc approach should be used for any future components with required child components.

+### 2026-02-12: Milestone 4 — Chart integration tests (WI-7)
+
+- Added 8 Chart smoke tests as a dedicated `ChartControl_Loads_AndRendersContent` Theory in `ControlSampleTests.cs`
+  - Follows the Menu pattern: separate Theory with its own verify method (`VerifyChartPageLoads`) that tolerates JS interop console errors but checks for page errors
+  - Routes: `/ControlSamples/Chart`, `Chart/Line`, `Chart/Bar`, `Chart/Pie`, `Chart/Area`, `Chart/Doughnut`, `Chart/Scatter`, `Chart/StackedColumn`
+- Added 4 interactive tests in `InteractiveComponentTests.cs`:
+  - `Chart_DefaultPage_RendersCanvas` — verifies `<canvas>` on Column (default) page
+  - `Chart_LinePage_RendersCanvas` — verifies `<canvas>` on Line page
+  - `Chart_PiePage_RendersCanvas` — verifies `<canvas>` on Pie page
+  - `Chart_AllTypes_RenderCanvas` — Theory test covering all 8 routes for `<canvas>` element
+- All 19 Chart tests pass (8 smoke + 3 individual canvas + 8 theory canvas)
+- Used `WaitUntilState.DOMContentLoaded` instead of `NetworkIdle` for Chart tests — Chart.js JS interop can keep network busy
+- Key learnings:
+  - Chart component renders `<div>` wrapping a `<canvas>` element (in `Chart.razor`), so `<canvas>` is always in the DOM even before Chart.js initializes
+  - Chart pages use JS interop (`ChartJsInterop.cs`) — console errors are expected if Chart.js CDN/bundle isn't fully loaded; page errors are not
+  - Pre-existing test suite has 97 failures on non-Chart tests due to ASP.NET structured log console errors (`[timestamp] Error:`) being caught by `Assert.Empty(consoleErrors)` — these are unrelated to Chart work

+- **Chart component architecture (WI-1/2/3):** Chart inherits `BaseStyledComponent`. Uses CascadingValue `"ParentChart"` for child registration (ChartSeries, ChartArea, ChartLegend, ChartTitle). JS interop via ES module `chart-interop.js` with lazy loading in `ChartJsInterop.cs`. `ChartConfigBuilder` is a pure static class converting component model → Chart.js JSON config, testable without browser.
+- **Chart file paths:**
+  - Enums: `Enums/SeriesChartType.cs` (35 values), `Enums/ChartPalette.cs`, `Enums/Docking.cs`, `Enums/ChartDashStyle.cs`
+  - POCOs: `Axis.cs`, `DataPoint.cs`
+  - JS: `wwwroot/js/chart.min.js` (PLACEHOLDER), `wwwroot/js/chart-interop.js`
+  - C# interop: `ChartJsInterop.cs`
+  - Config builder: `ChartConfigBuilder.cs` (+ config snapshot classes)
+  - Components: `Chart.razor`/`.cs`, `ChartSeries.razor`/`.cs`, `ChartArea.razor`/`.cs`, `ChartLegend.razor`/`.cs`, `ChartTitle.razor`/`.cs`
+- **Chart type mapping:** Web Forms `SeriesChartType.Point` maps to Chart.js `"scatter"`. Web Forms has no explicit "Scatter" enum value — `Point=0` is the equivalent. 8 types supported in Phase 1; unsupported throw `NotSupportedException`.
+- **JS interop pattern for Chart:** Uses `IJSRuntime` directly (not the shared `BlazorWebFormsJsInterop` service) because Chart.js interop is chart-specific, not page-level. `ChartJsInterop` lazily imports the ES module and exposes `CreateChartAsync`, `UpdateChartAsync`, `DestroyChartAsync`.
+- **BaseStyledComponent already has Width/Height as Unit type:** Chart adds `ChartWidth`/`ChartHeight` as string parameters for CSS dimension styling on the wrapper div, avoiding conflict with the base class Unit properties.
+- **Instance-based canvas IDs:** Uses `Guid.NewGuid()` (truncated to 8 chars) for canvas element IDs, consistent with the ImageMap pattern that avoids static counters.

+### Milestone 4 — Chart Sample Pages (WI-6)
+
+- **Chart component API:** Uses child components (`ChartSeries`, `ChartArea`, `ChartTitle`, `ChartLegend`) inside a `<Chart>` parent via `CascadingValue`. Data is provided through `List<DataPoint>` on `ChartSeries.Points`, where each `DataPoint` has `XValue` (object) and `YValues` (double[]). Chart type is set via `SeriesChartType` enum on `ChartSeries.ChartType`.
+- **8 sample pages created:** Index (Column), Line, Bar, Pie, Area, Doughnut, Scatter, StackedColumn — each under `Components/Pages/ControlSamples/Chart/`.
+- **Multi-series demos:** Line (NY vs LA temps), StackedColumn (3 product lines) show how to add multiple `ChartSeries` children.
+- **Scatter uses `Point` type:** The `SeriesChartType` enum has `Point` (not `Scatter`), so the scatter sample uses `SeriesChartType.Point`.
+- **Axis config is a POCO:** `Axis` is a plain class (not a component), passed via parameter syntax `AxisX="@(new Axis { Title = "..." })"`.
+- **NavMenu Chart node:** Added under Data Components with `Expanded="false"` and 8 sub-nodes for each chart type, alphabetically ordered.
+- **ComponentList updated:** Replaced placeholder `Chart(?)` with a working link.

  Team update (2026-02-12): Milestone 4 planned  Chart component with Chart.js via JS interop. 8 work items, design review required before implementation.  decided by Forge + Squad
 
+📌 Milestone 4 QA (WI-4): Wrote 140 bUnit tests for the Chart component in `ChartTests.cs`. Tests cover: component rendering (canvas in div, width/height style, CssClass, Visible=false), SeriesChartType enum (35 values with Web Forms numbering), ChartPalette enum (12 values), Docking enum (4 values), ChartDashStyle enum (6 values), DataPoint class (defaults, properties, numeric XValue), Axis class (defaults, all properties), ChartConfigBuilder (empty/null series, all 8 supported type mappings: Column→bar, Bar→bar+indexAxis:y, Line→line, Pie→pie, Area→line+fill, Doughnut→doughnut, Point→scatter, StackedColumn→bar+stacked, scatter XY data format, title/legend plugins with docking, axis config with title/min/max/interval/logarithmic, data labels from Label and XValue, series name→dataset label, responsive options, palette color assignment for all 12 palettes, borderWidth, Bar indexAxis on dataset, stacked+axis config merging), 27 unsupported chart types throw NotSupportedException, config snapshot class properties. All 140 tests pass. — Rogue
+
+📌 Test pattern: Chart component tests use `BunitContext` directly (not `BlazorWebFormsTestContext`) with `JSInterop.Mode = JSRuntimeMode.Loose` to handle Chart.js interop calls. ChartConfigBuilder is the most testable part — pure static class, no JS/canvas dependency. bUnit 2.x requires `Render<T>` not `RenderComponent<T>`. `GetPaletteColors` is internal, so palette behavior is tested indirectly via BuildConfig dataset colors. — Rogue

+# Chart Component Implementation Decisions
+
+**By:** Cyclops
+**Date:** 2026-02-12
+**Scope:** WI-1, WI-2, WI-3 (Chart component, JS interop, chart type mapping)
+
+## Decisions Made
+
+### 1. SeriesChartType.Point maps to Chart.js "scatter"
+Web Forms does not have a `Scatter` enum value — `Point = 0` is the equivalent. The design spec listed "Scatter" as a Phase 1 type, but the actual enum uses `Point`. `ChartConfigBuilder` maps `Point` → `"scatter"` in Chart.js.
+
+### 2. ChartWidth/ChartHeight as string parameters (not overriding base Width/Height)
+`BaseStyledComponent` already defines `Width` and `Height` as `Unit` type parameters. Rather than hiding these, Chart adds separate `ChartWidth`/`ChartHeight` string parameters (e.g., "400px", "300px") that render as inline CSS on the wrapper `<div>`. The base `Width`/`Height` remain available for CSS style generation via `this.ToStyle()`.
+
+### 3. ChartJsInterop is separate from BlazorWebFormsJsInterop
+Chart.js interop uses its own `ChartJsInterop` class, not the shared `BlazorWebFormsJsInterop` service. This keeps chart-specific JS isolated and avoids polluting the page-level interop service.
+
+### 4. Chart.js placeholder file
+Since no internet access is available, `wwwroot/js/chart.min.js` is a placeholder stub that exports a `Chart` constructor. It logs a console warning. Must be replaced with real Chart.js v4.4.8 before production use.
+
+### 5. Child component registration via CascadingParameter
+All child components (ChartSeries, ChartArea, ChartLegend, ChartTitle) use `[CascadingParameter(Name = "ParentChart")]` and register in `OnInitializedAsync`, following the MultiView/View pattern.
+
+### 6. ChartConfigBuilder uses snapshot classes
+Instead of passing the `Chart` component directly to `ChartConfigBuilder.BuildConfig()`, we pass config snapshot classes (`ChartSeriesConfig`, `ChartAreaConfig`, etc.) extracted via `.ToConfig()` methods. This decouples the builder from component lifecycle and enables pure unit testing.
+
+### 7. Docking parameter naming avoids conflicts
+`ChartLegend.LegendDocking` and `ChartTitle.TitleDocking` use prefixed names to avoid potential parameter name conflicts with the base class or future properties. They're nullable `Docking?` to distinguish "not set" from a default value.
+
+### 8. Task.Yield() before first chart creation
+`OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender)` calls `Task.Yield()` before creating the chart, giving child components time to register via their own `OnInitializedAsync`. Without this, the chart would render before series/areas/titles/legends are registered.
+
+## Files Created

+- `Axis.cs`, `DataPoint.cs`

+# Decision: Chart Component Architecture (Design Review)
+
+**By:** Forge
+**Date:** 2026-02-12
+**Ceremony:** Design Review — Milestone 4
+
+---
+
+### Base class: DataBoundStyledComponent<T>
+
+**What:** Create new `DataBoundStyledComponent<T>` inheriting `DataBoundComponent<T>` and implementing `IStyle`. Chart inherits this new class. Web Forms `Chart` inherits `DataBoundControl` → `WebControl` — it needs both data binding AND style properties. Our `DataBoundComponent<T>` chain skips `BaseStyledComponent`, so styled data-bound controls have no proper base class. GridView worked around this by re-declaring `CssClass` as a standalone `[Parameter]` — a pattern smell.
+
+**Why:** Neither `DataBoundComponent<T>` (no styles) nor `BaseStyledComponent` (no data binding) alone satisfies the Web Forms Chart contract. The new base class fills a structural gap. It does not affect existing components (additive only).
+
+---
+
+### Child registration: CascadingValue + explicit Register on init
+
+**What:** ChartSeries, ChartArea, ChartTitle, ChartLegend register with parent Chart via `[CascadingParameter(Name="ParentChart")]` and call `ParentChart.RegisterXxx(this)` in `OnInitializedAsync`. Chart maintains `SeriesList`, `ChartAreaList`, `TitleList`, `LegendList` collections.
+
+**Why:** Follows the MultiView/View pattern already established in the project. Explicit registration gives Chart deterministic knowledge of its children before `OnAfterRenderAsync` fires the JS interop call.
+
+---
+
+### JS interop contract: Three-function ES module
+
+**What:** `chart-interop.js` exports `createChart(canvasId, config)`, `updateChart(canvasId, config)`, `destroyChart(canvasId)`. Config is a standard Chart.js configuration object (type + data + options). C# wrapper class `ChartJsInterop` uses lazy `IJSObjectReference` import pattern matching `BlazorWebFormsJsInterop`. Canvas referenced by `id` (from `ClientID`), not `ElementReference`.
+
+**Why:** Minimal JS surface area. Passing a standard Chart.js config object means C# owns the config shape and JS is a thin pass-through — no JS-side logic to maintain. Follows existing lazy-module-import pattern.
+
+---
+
+### Chart.js version: Pin to v4.4.8
+
+**What:** Bundle `chart.min.js` v4.4.8 as a static asset in `wwwroot/js/`. Imported by `chart-interop.js` via relative ES module import.
+
+**Why:** v4.4.8 is widely deployed and well-tested. v4.5.x is newer (Oct 2025) with less production mileage. Pinning to a stable version reduces risk for the project's first JS interop component. Upgrading is a single file replacement.
+
+---
+
+### Phase 1 chart types: 8 types mapped to Chart.js
+
+**What:** Column→bar, Bar→bar(indexAxis:'y'), Line→line, Pie→pie, Area→line(fill:true), Doughnut→doughnut, Scatter→scatter, StackedColumn→bar(stacked:true). Full `SeriesChartType` enum (all 35 Web Forms values) created for API fidelity; unsupported types throw `NotSupportedException`.
+
+**Why:** API fidelity requires the full enum. Chart.js maps cleanly to 8 common chart types. Unsupported types fail clearly rather than silently producing wrong output.
+
+---
+
+### Testing strategy: Extract ChartConfigBuilder as pure function
+
+**What:** `ChartConfigBuilder` is a static class that takes registered children/parameters and produces the Chart.js config dictionary. bUnit tests cover: markup structure (canvas attributes), child registration, config generation (via ChartConfigBuilder), JS interop mock verification, dispose cleanup, error handling. Visual rendering verified by Playwright.
+
+**Why:** Canvas content is opaque to bUnit. Extracting the config builder as a pure function maximizes testable surface area without JS interop. This is the same principle as testing a ViewModel separately from a View.
+
+---
+
+### Enums: 4 new enum files
+
+**What:** `SeriesChartType` (35 values), `ChartPalette` (13 values), `Docking` (4 values: Top/Bottom/Left/Right), `ChartDashStyle` (6 values). All placed in `Enums/` directory following project convention.
+
+**Why:** Web Forms Chart uses these enums. Project convention requires every Web Forms enum to have a corresponding C# enum in `Enums/`.
