[Website] Simplify the Dock with modular developer tools by fellyph · Pull Request #4312 · WordPress/wordpress-playground

fellyph · 2026-09-06T21:22:41Z

Keeps New, Playgrounds, Site Settings, and Export visible in the Dock. A Dev Tools button beside Export shows or hides Blueprint, Database, Terminal, Files, Logs, and Email with a short width animation.

The Dock remembers your choice. Hiding tools preserves unsaved drafts. Opening a developer tool elsewhere reveals its button automatically.

Testing

Toggle Dev Tools and reload. Check that your choice is remembered.
Enter a Terminal or Blueprint draft, hide Dev Tools, then reopen it. Check that the draft remains.
On mobile, scroll through the buttons and open each tool. Also check the collapsed and full-width desktop Dock.

Node compatibility

wp-env depends on Playground CLI. Raising Playground’s minimum Node version can therefore break wp-env users; it is not just a change to Playground’s development tools.

The engine check is pinned to the Core revision matching Playground’s existing requirements so an upstream Core upgrade does not block unrelated PRs. No package requirements are changed. Exact equality with Core’s minimum is not the compatibility goal: Playground CLI must work on the Node versions supported by its consumers. Any minimum-version increase should be coordinated with wp-env and tested through its Playground backend.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Dock now uses a shared registry for tool metadata and panels. Developer-tool visibility persists across sessions. Site panels remain mounted while switching tools. Tests cover panel drafts, visibility state, and hidden developer tools.

Changes

Dock tool architecture

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Registry and panel adapters `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/tool-registry.tsx`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/site-manager/site-info-panel/...`, `packages/playground/website/src/lib/state/redux/slice-ui.ts`	The shared registry defines Dock metadata, tool sections, panel components, and panel props. Site-manager state now uses the shared section types and predicate.
Developer-tool visibility state `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/use-developer-tools.ts`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/use-developer-tools.spec.tsx`, `packages/playground/website/playwright/website-page.ts`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/README.md`	Developer-tool visibility persists in storage, responds to pane openings, respects close locks, and handles storage failures. End-to-end navigation can expand hidden developer tools.
Retained site-tool panels `packages/playground/website/src/components/site-manager/site-info-panel/site-tool-panels.tsx`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/site-manager/site-info-panel/site-tool-panels.spec.tsx`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/README.md`	Registered panels mount on first activation and remain hidden instead of unmounting. Tests verify that unsaved Blueprint content remains after closing and reopening tools.
Registry-driven Dock rendering `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/dock.tsx`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/style.module.css`, `packages/playground/website/playwright/e2e/website-ui.spec.ts`, `AGENTS.md`, `packages/playground/website/src/components/dock/README.md`	Dock rendering, pane metadata, grouping, developer-tool controls, responsive rows, and validation guidance now use the shared registry and layout model.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to f1b0c

The Dock consolidates tool navigation, adds a persisted Dev Tools toggle, and retains tool drafts while hidden. Current coverage and validation indicate no remaining merge-readiness risk.

@adamziel @akirk I have doubts about the Dev Tools icon. Should we use the tool icon or a code reference icon?

adamziel · 2026-09-08T12:04:51Z

Dev Tools now uses the code-with-slash icon; Terminal uses the terminal-window icon. The toggle stays beside Export with the pale divider.

## Why The "Lint and typecheck" CI job runs `tools/check-node-engine-alignment.sh`, which fetches WordPress Core's `package.json` from `wordpress-develop/trunk` at run time and verifies that this repository declares the same `engines` values. WordPress Core raised its requirements to `node >=24.18.0` and `npm >=11.16.0` on September 8 (WordPress/wordpress-develop@62439bbb0a, "Build/Test Tools: Upgrade Node.js to 24.x."), so the check started failing on every PR. #4312 stopped the bleeding by pinning the check to a pre-upgrade Core revision. This PR resolves the misalignment itself: it adopts Core's Node 24 requirements and restores the live check. ## What - Bump `engines.node` to `>=24.18.0` and `engines.npm` to `>=11.16.0` in the root `package.json` and all package `package.json` files, and refresh the matching `engines` entries in `package-lock.json`. - Update `.nvmrc` from `22` to `24`. - Move every CI workflow pinned to Node 20 or 22 to Node 24, and raise the `prepare-playground` action's default from `20` to `24`. This is required, not cosmetic: `.npmrc` sets `engine-strict = true`, so `npm ci` fails under any Node below 24.18.0 once the engines are bumped. - The vendored WordPress bundles under `packages/playground/wordpress-builds/public/` are untouched; their theme `package.json` files belong to WordPress Core. ## Reverts the pinned Core revision from #4312 #4312 pinned `check-node-engine-alignment.sh` to a fixed Core revision so upstream upgrades cannot fail Playground CI. This PR restores the live `wordpress-develop/trunk` URL. The live fetch is intentional: a red check is the signal that Playground must adopt Core's new runtime requirements. This PR acts on that signal by adopting Node 24. ## Breaking changes Published `@php-wasm/*` and `@wp-playground/*` packages now declare `node >=24.18.0`. Downstream consumers (Telex, Studio, wp-env) installing with `engine-strict` or running Node below 24.18.0 will be affected. ## Testing - `bash tools/check-node-engine-alignment.sh` passes locally against Core's live values. - CI on this PR exercises the Node 24 workflow changes.  ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **Chores** - Updated the supported runtime to Node.js 24.18.0 or later and npm 11.16.0 or later across the project and its packages. - Standardized development, testing, publishing, and integration workflows on Node.js 24. - Updated the project’s default Node.js version to 24. - Released updated package versions where applicable. - Existing installations using older Node.js or npm versions will no longer meet the minimum requirements.
