chore(abacus-react): release v2.8.3 [skip ci]

## [2.8.3](https://github.com/antialias/soroban-abacus-flashcards/compare/abacus-react-v2.8.2...abacus-react-v2.8.3) (2025-11-05)

### Bug Fixes

* **tutorial:** correct column validation for bead highlights ([9ba1824](9ba1824226))
* **tutorial:** fix overlay rendering, arrow indicators, and bead visibility ([a804316](a80431608d))
* **web,docker:** add --format flag for Typst and upgrade to v0.13.0 ([19b9d7a](19b9d7a74f))
* **web:** move tsx to production dependencies for calendar generation ([ffae9c1](ffae9c1bdb))

 # Claude Code Instructions for apps/web
 
+## CRITICAL: Production Dependencies
+
+**NEVER add TypeScript execution tools to production dependencies.**
+
+### Forbidden Production Dependencies
+
+The following packages must ONLY be in `devDependencies`, NEVER in `dependencies`:
+
+- ❌ `tsx` - TypeScript execution (only for scripts during development)
+- ❌ `ts-node` - TypeScript execution
+- ❌ Any TypeScript compiler/executor that runs .ts/.tsx files at runtime
+
+### Why This Matters
+
+1. **Docker Image Size**: These tools add 50-100MB+ to production images
+2. **Security**: Running TypeScript at runtime is a security risk
+3. **Performance**: Production should run compiled JavaScript, not interpret TypeScript
+4. **Architecture**: If you need TypeScript at runtime, the code is in the wrong place
+
+### What To Do Instead
+
+**❌ WRONG - Adding tsx to dependencies to run .ts/.tsx at runtime:**
+```json
+{
+  "dependencies": {
+    "tsx": "^4.20.5"  // NEVER DO THIS
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**✅ CORRECT - Move code to proper location:**
+
+1. **For Next.js API routes**: Move files to `src/` so Next.js bundles them during build
+   - Example: `scripts/generateCalendar.tsx` → `src/utils/calendar/generateCalendar.tsx`
+   - Next.js will compile and bundle these during `npm run build`
+
+2. **For standalone scripts**: Keep in `scripts/` and use `tsx` from devDependencies
+   - Only run during development/build, never at runtime
+   - Scripts can use `tsx` because it's available during build
+
+3. **For server-side TypeScript**: Compile to JavaScript during build
+   - Use `tsc` to compile `src/` to `dist/`
+   - Production runs the compiled JavaScript from `dist/`
+
+### Historical Context
+
+**We've made this mistake TWICE:**
+
+1. **First time (commit ffae9c1b)**: Added tsx to dependencies for calendar generation scripts
+   - **Fix**: Moved scripts to `src/utils/calendar/` so Next.js bundles them
+
+2. **Second time (would have happened again)**: Almost added tsx again for same reason
+   - **Learning**: If you're tempted to add tsx to dependencies, the architecture is wrong
+
+### Red Flags
+
+If you find yourself thinking:
+- "I need to add tsx to dependencies to run this .ts file in production"
+- "This script needs TypeScript at runtime"
+- "Production can't import this .tsx file"
+
+**STOP.** The code is in the wrong place. Move it to `src/` for bundling.
+
+### Enforcement
+
+Before modifying `package.json` dependencies:
+1. Check if any TypeScript execution tools are being added
+2. Ask yourself: "Could this code be in `src/` instead?"
+3. If unsure, ask the user before proceeding
+
 ## MANDATORY: Quality Checks for ALL Work
 
 **BEFORE declaring ANY work complete, fixed, or working**, you MUST run and pass these checks:

+### Static Display (Server Components)
+
+For static, non-interactive displays that work in React Server Components:
+
+```tsx
+// IMPORTANT: Use /static import path for RSC compatibility!
+import { AbacusStatic } from '@soroban/abacus-react/static';
+
+// ✅ Works in React Server Components - no "use client" needed!
+// ✅ No JavaScript sent to client
+// ✅ Perfect for SSG, SSR, and static previews
+
+<AbacusStatic
+  value={123}
+  columns="auto"
+  hideInactiveBeads
+  compact
+/>
+```
+
+**Import paths:**
+- `@soroban/abacus-react` - Full package (client components with hooks/animations)
+- `@soroban/abacus-react/static` - Server-compatible components only (no client code)
+
+**Guaranteed Visual Consistency:**
+
+Both `AbacusStatic` and `AbacusReact` share the same underlying layout engine. **Same props = same exact SVG output.** This ensures:
+- Static previews match interactive versions pixel-perfect
+- Server-rendered abaci look identical to client-rendered ones
+- PDF generation produces accurate representations
+- No visual discrepancies between environments
+
+**Architecture: How We Guarantee Consistency**
+
+The package uses a shared rendering architecture with dependency injection:

+**Key Components:**
+
+1. **`calculateStandardDimensions()`** - Returns complete layout dimensions (bar position, bead sizes, gaps, etc.)
+2. **`calculateBeadPosition()`** - Calculates exact x,y coordinates for any bead
+3. **`AbacusSVGRenderer`** - Shared SVG rendering component that accepts a bead component via dependency injection
+4. **`AbacusStaticBead`** - Simple SVG shapes for static display (no hooks, RSC-compatible)
+5. **`AbacusAnimatedBead`** - Client component with react-spring animations and gesture handling
+
+This architecture eliminates code duplication (~560 lines removed in the refactor) while guaranteeing pixel-perfect consistency.
+
+**When to use `AbacusStatic` vs `AbacusReact`:**

+| Bundle size | 📦 Minimal | 📦 Full-featured |
+| Use cases | Preview cards, thumbnails, static pages, PDFs | Interactive tutorials, games, tools |

+### calculateStandardDimensions
+
+**⚡ Core Architecture Function** - Calculate complete layout dimensions for consistent rendering.
+
+This is the **single source of truth** for all layout dimensions, used internally by both `AbacusStatic` and `AbacusReact` to guarantee pixel-perfect consistency.
+
+```tsx
+import { calculateStandardDimensions } from '@soroban/abacus-react';
+
+const dimensions = calculateStandardDimensions({
+  columns: 3,
+  scaleFactor: 1.5,
+  showNumbers: true,
+  columnLabels: ['ones', 'tens', 'hundreds']
+});
+
+// Returns complete layout info:
+// {
+//   width, height,           // SVG canvas size
+//   beadSize,                // 12 * scaleFactor (standard bead size)
+//   rodSpacing,              // 25 * scaleFactor (column spacing)
+//   rodWidth,                // 3 * scaleFactor
+//   barThickness,            // 2 * scaleFactor
+//   barY,                    // Reckoning bar Y position (30 * scaleFactor + labels)
+//   heavenY, earthY,         // Inactive bead rest positions
+//   activeGap,               // 1 * scaleFactor (gap to bar when active)
+//   inactiveGap,             // 8 * scaleFactor (gap between active/inactive)
+//   adjacentSpacing,         // 0.5 * scaleFactor (spacing between adjacent beads)
+//   padding, labelHeight, numbersHeight, totalColumns
+// }
+```
+
+**Why this matters:** Same input parameters = same exact layout dimensions = pixel-perfect visual consistency across static and interactive displays.
+
+### calculateBeadPosition
+
+**⚡ Core Architecture Function** - Calculate exact x,y coordinates for any bead.
+
+Used internally by `AbacusSVGRenderer` to position all beads consistently in both static and interactive modes.
+
+```tsx
+import { calculateBeadPosition, calculateStandardDimensions } from '@soroban/abacus-react';
+
+const dimensions = calculateStandardDimensions({ columns: 3, scaleFactor: 1 });
+const bead = {
+  type: 'heaven',
+  active: true,
+  position: 0,
+  placeValue: 1  // tens column
+};
+
+const position = calculateBeadPosition(bead, dimensions);
+// Returns: { x: 25, y: 29 }  // exact pixel coordinates
+```
+
+Useful for custom rendering or positioning tooltips/overlays relative to specific beads.

+ * AbacusAnimatedBead - Interactive bead component for AbacusReact (Core Architecture)
+ *
+ * This is the **client-side bead component** injected into AbacusSVGRenderer by AbacusReact.
+ * It provides animations and interactivity while the parent renderer handles positioning.
+ *
+ * ## Architecture Role:
+ * - Injected into `AbacusSVGRenderer` via dependency injection (BeadComponent prop)
+ * - Receives x,y position from `calculateBeadPosition()` (already calculated)
+ * - Adds animations and interactions on top of the shared layout
+ * - Used ONLY by AbacusReact (requires "use client")
+ *
+ * ## Features:
+ * - ✅ React Spring animations for smooth position changes
+ * - ✅ Drag gesture handling with @use-gesture/react
+ * - ✅ Direction indicators for tutorials (pulsing arrows)
+ * - ✅ 3D effects and gradients
+ * - ✅ Click and hover interactions
+ *
+ * ## Comparison:
+ * - `AbacusStaticBead` - Simple SVG shapes (no animations, RSC-compatible)
+ * - `AbacusAnimatedBead` - This component (animations, gestures, client-only)
+ *

+/**
+ * AbacusSVGRenderer - Shared SVG rendering component (Core Architecture)
+ *
+ * This is the **single SVG renderer** used by both AbacusStatic and AbacusReact to guarantee
+ * pixel-perfect visual consistency. It implements dependency injection to support different
+ * bead components while maintaining identical layout.
+ *
+ * ## Architecture Role:
+ * ```
+ * AbacusStatic + AbacusReact
+ *         ↓
+ * calculateStandardDimensions() ← Single source for all layout dimensions
+ *         ↓
+ * AbacusSVGRenderer ← This component (shared structure)
+ *         ↓
+ * calculateBeadPosition() ← Exact positioning for every bead
+ *         ↓
+ * BeadComponent (injected) ← AbacusStaticBead OR AbacusAnimatedBead
+ * ```
+ *
+ * ## Key Features:
+ * - ✅ No "use client" directive - works in React Server Components
+ * - ✅ No hooks or state - pure rendering from props
+ * - ✅ Dependency injection for bead components
+ * - ✅ Supports 3D gradients, background glows, overlays (via props)
+ * - ✅ Same props → same dimensions → same positions → same layout
+ *
+ * ## Why This Matters:
+ * Before this architecture, AbacusStatic and AbacusReact had ~700 lines of duplicate
+ * SVG rendering code with separate dimension calculations. This led to layout inconsistencies.
+ * Now they share this single renderer, eliminating duplication and guaranteeing consistency.

+ * AbacusStatic - Server Component compatible static abacus
+ *
+ * ## Key Features:
+ * - ✅ Works in React Server Components (no "use client")
+ * - ✅ **Identical layout to AbacusReact** - same props = same exact SVG output
+ * - ✅ No animations, hooks, or client-side JavaScript
+ * - ✅ Lightweight rendering for static displays
+ *
+ * ## Shared Architecture (Zero Duplication!):
+ * Both AbacusStatic and AbacusReact use the **exact same rendering pipeline**:
+ *
+ * ```
+ * calculateStandardDimensions() → AbacusSVGRenderer → calculateBeadPosition()
+ *                                        ↓

+ *                    ↓                                       ↓
+ *             AbacusStaticBead                    AbacusAnimatedBead
+ *             (Simple SVG)                        (react-spring)
+ * ```
+ *
+ * - `calculateStandardDimensions()` - Single source of truth for layout (beadSize, gaps, bar position, etc.)
+ * - `AbacusSVGRenderer` - Shared SVG structure with dependency injection for bead components
+ * - `calculateBeadPosition()` - Exact positioning formulas used by both variants
+ * - `AbacusStaticBead` - RSC-compatible simple SVG shapes (this component)
+ * - `AbacusAnimatedBead` - Client component with animations (AbacusReact)
+ *
+ * ## Visual Consistency Guarantee:
+ * Both AbacusStatic and AbacusReact produce **pixel-perfect identical output** for the same props.
+ * This ensures previews match interactive versions, PDFs match web displays, etc.
+ *
+ * **Architecture benefit:** ~560 lines of duplicate code eliminated. Same props = same dimensions = same positions = same layout.
+ *
+ * ## When to Use:
+ * - React Server Components (Next.js App Router)
+ * - Static site generation
+ * - Non-interactive previews
+ * - PDF generation
+ * - Server-side rendering without hydration
