### 🐛 Known Issues & Solutions

#### Issue: Spinner Not Displaying
**Status**: ✅ FIXED
**Solution**: Use `send_message` for set* methods, not `send_and_read`

#### Issue: UI Elements Too Small
**Status**: ✅ FIXED  
**Solution**: Use full-screen mode with NestedScrollView and proper margins

#### Issue: Program Hangs
**Status**: ✅ FIXED
**Solution**: Correct API usage - create* methods return values, set* methods don't

### 🎓 Key Learnings

1. **API Usage Rule**
   ```rust
   // Create methods - wait for response (returns ID)
   send_and_read() → createSpinner, createTextView, etc.
   
   // Set methods - don't wait (no return value)
   send_message() → setList, setWidth, setMargin, etc.
   ```

2. **Layout Best Practices**
   - Use full-screen for complex UIs
   - Add NestedScrollView for scrollable content
   - Set proper margins (15-20px recommended)
   - Use MATCH_PARENT (-1) for Spinner width

3. **Event Handling**
   - Always handle "destroy" event
   - Use proper event types (click, itemselected, etc.)
   - Extract view IDs for comparison
