1//! Column layout and row structure for lists and tables.
2//!
3//! The other half of phase B. [`form`](crate::form) renders a field; this
4//! renders the frame a list of rows sits in: which columns exist, how wide they
5//! are, which ones survive a narrow viewport, and the cell containers a row is
6//! made of.
7//!
8//! # What this does not do
9//!
10//! It does not render a cell's contents. That is the crate's own limit, stated
11//! in `makeover_layout`'s "Where the description stops": generate the boring
12//! 80% so the bespoke 20% gets the attention. A goingson task row carries
13//! delegated action hooks with argument substitution, four nested sub-renderers,
14//! conditional state classes and aria labels built from data. A description
15//! expressive enough to emit that is a templating language wearing a
16//! description's name.
17//!
18//! So the split is the one [`Markup`] already draws for forms: this owns the
19//! structure and the app owns what goes in it. What that removes from an app is
20//! not small — cell order, cell classes, the grid tracks, and above all the
21//! narrowing rules, which is where addressing columns by position goes wrong.
22//!
23//! # Why positions are the bug
24//!
25//! goingson hides its mobile columns with `nth-child(n+5)` against a
26//! seven-column table, plus a separate `nth-child(3)`, plus two class-based
27//! rules — the same fact said three ways, two of them positional. Insert a
28//! column anywhere left of the cut and the wrong one disappears, silently,
29//! because nothing in the stylesheet knows what column five *is*.
30//! [`Priority`] is the fix: a renderer narrows by raising a cutoff, and never
31//! by counting.

285/// makeover-layout.
286///
287/// Public since 0.27.0. A row's parts are emitted by whoever builds the row
288/// element, and that is not always this crate: `cells_html` emits a table's
289/// cells, but a list row carries the app's identity and hooks, so a screen
290/// renderer writes it. quasi-webview wrote this list out a second time to do
291/// that, which made the obligation in the paragraph above land on a function
292/// its author would not think to grep.
293/// Every class [`part_class`] can return, including the fallback.
294///
295/// Beside the match rather than derived from it, because a `match` over a
296/// `#[non_exhaustive]` enum cannot be enumerated from outside. It carries the
297/// same obligation the match does and a test below holds the two together, so
298/// a new arm added without a new entry fails rather than silently narrowing
299/// what a checker believes this crate can emit.
