Drag the divider between the HTML source and preview panes to set the split, with keyboard control and a remembered width.

Greptile Summary

The PR adds a reusable split-pane component so users can resize the HTML source and preview panes by pointer or keyboard while retaining the chosen ratio.

  • Persists a bounded split ratio in browser storage.
  • Supports pointer dragging, keyboard adjustment, and double-click reset.
  • Associates the adjustable separator with both controlled panes.
  • Adds coverage for resizing, bounds, persistence, view switching, and accessibility wiring.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge.

No blocking failure remains.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
apps/web/src/features/docs/split-pane.tsx Implements the resizable, persistent, keyboard-accessible split pane and now correctly associates the separator with both pane elements.
apps/web/src/features/docs/html-doc-editor.tsx Replaces the fixed HTML editor layout with SplitPane while preserving source-only and preview-only modes.
apps/web/tests/features/docs/split-pane.test.tsx Covers ratio clamping, drag and keyboard behavior, persistence, single-pane rendering, reset behavior, and pane associations.
apps/web/tests/features/docs/html-doc-editor.test.tsx Verifies the editor exposes the resize handle in split mode and removes it in single-pane mode.

Reviews (3): Last reviewed commit: "test(docs): focus the split handle direc..." | Re-trigger Greptile

The source and preview panes were locked to an even split. A vertical
handle between them now sets the ratio by drag, arrow keys, Home and End,
resets on double click, and persists to local storage.

Thanks for your first pull request to Orbit.

Two things that will save you a review round: bun run verify runs the
same four checks CI does, and the repo has no comments in code by policy,
so bun run check-comments will flag any you added out of habit.

A maintainer will review this shortly. Ask anything on the thread.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation editor now uses a reusable SplitPane component. The component supports persisted sizing, pointer and keyboard resizing, accessibility attributes, ratio limits, reset behavior, and single-pane rendering.

Changes

Documentation split-pane resizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Split ratio persistence
apps/web/src/features/docs/split-pane.tsx, apps/web/tests/features/docs/split-pane.test.tsx
SplitPane defines ratio limits, loads and saves ratios through local storage, and handles invalid values. Tests cover clamping and persistence.
Split-pane interactions
apps/web/src/features/docs/split-pane.tsx, apps/web/tests/features/docs/split-pane.test.tsx
SplitPane supports pointer dragging, keyboard resizing, accessible separator behavior, double-click reset, and single-pane rendering. Tests cover these behaviors and boundary handling.
HTML editor integration
apps/web/src/features/docs/html-doc-editor.tsx, apps/web/tests/features/docs/html-doc-editor.test.tsx
The HTML editor passes source and preview content to SplitPane and preserves view-based visibility. Tests verify handle rendering and single-pane behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 7060e

This PR adds draggable, keyboard-controlled, and remembered resizing for the HTML source and preview panes; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

152-153: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use a shared interaction helper for handle color motion.

Lines 152-153 add raw transition and hover color classes. Replace them with the applicable helper from @/lib/interaction.ts. Keep the drag-state class separate.

Based on learnings, “hover/focus state color transitions must be implemented only via the shared motion/color helpers.”

handle to use the user-event interaction API: tab to the handle, assert it
receives focus, then use user.keyboard for ArrowRight, ArrowLeft, End, and Home.
Preserve the existing basis assertions so the test fails if the handle is not

Comment thread apps/web/tests/features/docs/split-pane.test.tsx Outdated
The separator announced a value but nothing said which panes moved with
it, so aria-controls now names both. The keyboard test drives the handle
through focus rather than dispatching straight at the element.

Tabbing depends on where focus was left by whatever ran before, which is
why the full suite failed the assertion the single file passed. Focusing
the handle and checking its tab index proves the same thing without the
ordering.
