Review: r_dynamic_bma2/web_app
- Slug:
r_dynamic_bma2 - Audit date: 2026-05-24
- Focus: all dimensions
- Browser pass: enabled (Chromium 1280x800 + 375x667)
- Verdict: ACCEPT (after fixes)
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score |
|---|
| 1 | File completeness | 10 |
| 2 | HTML structure | 9 |
| 3 | JS correctness | 10 |
| 4 | Data contract | 10 |
| 5 | Accessibility | 9 |
| 6 | Performance | 10 |
| 7 | Pedagogy | 9 |
| 8 | Hugo integration | 8 |
| 9 | Visual design | 9 |
| 10 | Mobile responsiveness | 8 |
Issues found and fixed
| # | Sev | Dim | Location | Issue | Fix applied |
|---|
| 1 | HIGH | 9 | charts.js pip_bars | Threshold labels (“0.95 strong” etc.) at y=-8 collided with top bar’s PIP value label when Population PIP near 0.95-0.99 | Increased top margin from 36 to 56; moved threshold labels to y=-22 with semi-transparent background pill; PIP labels now render inside the bar (right-aligned, dark text) when wide enough |
| 2 | MED | 9 | charts.js pip_forest | Global title at y=18 sat too close to per-facet titles (“Binomial”, etc.) at y=26 | Increased pip_forest margin.top from 36 to 56, global title moved to y=22, viewBox height bumped 460->480 |
Open notes (not fixed)
| # | Sev | Dim | Location | Issue | Suggested fix |
|---|
| 3 | LOW | 3 | charts.js forest_plot, selection_bars, alpha_compare, alpha_histograms, l1_vs_l2_animation, coefficient_path | Dead-code chart builders from the LASSO template (with stale LASSO-method colorMaps and outcome names) ship in charts.js but are not registered in app.js | Either delete unused builders or update their colorMaps; harmless (never executed) |
| 4 | LOW | 8 | post folder | No index.md exists at content/post/r_dynamic_bma2/ — the web app is reachable directly via Hugo but no published post links to it | Out of scope for this review |
Positive highlights
- Smoke test passes 8/8 (qnorm precision, OLS recovery, < 110 ms perf)
- Tabs use proper
role="tab" + aria-selected switching - Glossary has 9 entries (>= 6 minimum)
- Tab-1 lede contains all three post takeaways (population/life-expectancy dominance, posterior model size, prior sensitivity)
- Jointness heatmap correctly anchors the diagonal, shades cells >= 0.35 with numeric labels in dark text
- Pedagogy panels per tab; “what to look for” lists with specific PIPs from the post
