Transparent UI

Build temporary debugging interfaces that make invisible system behavior visible. These are development-only routes/pages that reveal internal state, transitions, and data flow through interactive visualization.

Core Principles

Make the invisible visible. Show state that normally exists only in memory. Reveal transitions that happen too fast to observe. Surface the "why" behind system behavior.

Temporary by design. These are debugging tools, not production features. Keep changes isolated for easy removal. Use dev-only routes and environment checks.

Use existing components. Build with the project's component library and design system. The visualization should feel native to the codebase, not like a foreign debugging tool.

Match instrumentation to context. Sometimes minimal logging is enough; sometimes a full observable wrapper is needed. Choose the lightest approach that captures the necessary information.
