The next IDE package: ⋮ «Info», an empty start instead of the starter project, and an automated browser check for the IDE. Please don't merge before reading «Deploy and PT-3» below.

1. ⋮ «Info»

• A new last group in ⋮: «Info» (en «About») opens a small window titled «glpython»:
  • Version: the short commit (e.g. e609bfc).
  • Erstellt: the build date and time («1. November 2026 um 15:31»).
  • «Nach Updates suchen»: runs the same check as the automatic notice and says «Diese Version ist aktuell.», or shows «Neue Version verfügbar.» with «Neu laden».
• The values are the ones the build writes to version.json, which now also has "built".
• No course links.

2. A new tab starts empty

• A fresh tab has one empty main.py (the placeholder «Code hier eingeben» shows) instead of the editor's English starter project (main.py, greetings.py, notes.md). It's the same empty project as for a broken link and for ⋮ «Neues leeres Projekt», renamed from «Neues Projekt» to match your wording.
• «Untouched» is decided by content (one empty file to run), not by name, so a language switch doesn't matter. An untouched empty project counts as saved and never appears in «Zuletzt geschlossen».
• What relied on the old starter files:
  • Nothing in the IDE's code apart from the «untouched» rule.
  • Old tabs: tabs from before this deploy still hold the untouched old starter. Without care, it would show up in «Zuletzt geschlossen» for 14 days and as «Zuletzt bearbeitet: main.py» in fresh tabs. So the untouched former starter (recognised by its content) also counts as untouched. The browser check covers it: without this rule it fails with exactly that offer.
  • README: «Project persistence» updated. There are no screenshots, and no tests used the starter.
  • glpython-editor still exports initialProject (other hosts and its README example use it). The IDE no longer does.

3. Browser check for the IDE (npm run test:browser, in CI)

scripts/check-ide-browser.mjs:

• playwright-core (new dev dependency) drives the runner's Chrome against vite preview of dist/, with Pyodide from its CDN.
• It has its own fixtures (no course files) and serves its own library by URL, with CORS.
• About 40 s locally.

Check	Covers
fresh tab	one empty main.py; an untouched former starter isn't offered
#41	a link with a read-only file: 6 tab switches, typing, undo, redo, typing into the read-only file, 3 more switches. Each file keeps its own content and the read-only file stays unchanged. Without the editor's #41 fix this check fails (main.py got bib.py's text; checked by removing the fix from the installed build).
per tab	address is the bare start page; two tabs from one link stay independent; reload keeps the code; a closed tab's changed project is offered («Zuletzt bearbeitet: main.py») and reopens
library by URL	read-only tab with lock, «Bibliotheken» «von localhost:4197», ▶ runs it
library 404	the notice «… (HTTP 404).»; ▶ ends in ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bib'
cut link	2,083 characters, with another project in the browser: the notice, only an empty main.py
long link	«Teilen» shows the note with «Herunterladen»
▶ and «Tests»	two files: output 84, «1 von 1 Beispielen bestanden»
⋮ «Info»	the version matches dist/version.json; «Nach Updates suchen» says «Diese Version ist aktuell.»; with a different version.json (intercepted), «Neue Version verfügbar.» with «Neu laden»

Still manual: the browser's «leave the page» question (headless Chrome can't confirm a close or reload after it) and everything on the iPad.

CLAUDE.md now describes the check; it said «There are no tests».

New wording, please review

Deploy and PT-3

Merging deploys the IDE. Your open tabs from before (Mac and iPad) should then:

1. Show «Neue Version verfügbar.» when you return to them (checked whenever a tab comes back into view, and every 30 minutes).
2. After «Neu laden», still have their code.
3. Show the new version under ⋮ «Info»: the short commit of the merge commit on main.

The tabs still run the old IDE until that reload, so ⋮ «Info» appears only after it.
