## Overview

#### Purpose
This is a small static-site repository centered on a generated HTML artifact. The visible site entry point is `index.html`; repository automation appears designed to refresh its equipment-related content on a schedule or manual workflow run.

#### Entry Points
- **Browser/user entry:** `index.html` is the deployable static document and likely contains the rendered equipment view.
- **Generation entry:** `regenerate_browser.py` is the local/CI executable responsible for rebuilding or updating browser-facing output.
- **Automation entry:** `.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml` invokes the update process in GitHub Actions.

#### Content Regeneration Stage
`regenerate_browser.py` forms the repository’s primary application logic boundary. It likely obtains or transforms equipment data and writes the result consumed by `index.html`. The generated HTML is committed/deployed as a static artifact rather than produced dynamically by an application server.

Relevant paths:
- `regenerate_browser.py`
- `index.html`

#### CI-Controlled Update Flow
GitHub Actions is the operational runtime for recurring updates. The workflow at `.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml` likely provisions Python, executes `regenerate_browser.py`, and persists changed generated content through a commit or repository update mechanism.

Relevant paths:
- `.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml`
- `regenerate_browser.py`
- `.github/workflows`

#### Deployment and Runtime Boundary
There is no visible backend, package manifest, container definition, or application framework. The serving boundary is therefore the static HTML file, which can be hosted by any static-file host. Python and GitHub Actions are build/update infrastructure, not user-facing runtime dependencies.

Relevant paths:
- `index.html`
- `regenerate_browser.py`
- `.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml`

#### Primary Control and Data Flow
1. GitHub Actions or a developer starts the regeneration process.
2. `regenerate_browser.py` gathers and/or converts equipment information.
3. The resulting browser representation is written into `index.html`.
4. The static HTML artifact is published or otherwise served to users.

The main architectural contract is between the generator and the generated HTML: changes to the output structure in `regenerate_browser.py` directly affect the public page in `index.html`.

Main entry points: [`regenerate_browser.py`](https://github.com/ragul-personal/labs_equipment_browser/blob/main/regenerate_browser.py) (Equipment Generator), [`.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml`](https://github.com/ragul-personal/labs_equipment_browser/blob/main/.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml) (Equipment Update Workflow), [`index.html`](https://github.com/ragul-personal/labs_equipment_browser/blob/main/index.html) (Equipment Page)

## Components

### Automation

Scheduled or manual repository update runtime.

- [Equipment Update Workflow](https://github.com/ragul-personal/labs_equipment_browser/blob/main/.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml): GitHub Actions workflow · Runs the recurring or manually started update process. · `.github/workflows/update-equipment.yml`
- [Equipment Generator](https://github.com/ragul-personal/labs_equipment_browser/blob/main/regenerate_browser.py): Python script · Transforms equipment information into the public HTML representation. · `regenerate_browser.py`
- **Developer**: manual trigger
- **Equipment Information**: source data · Input gathered and/or converted during regeneration.

### Static Site

Committed browser-facing artifact and its delivery boundary.

- [Equipment Page](https://github.com/ragul-personal/labs_equipment_browser/blob/main/index.html): generated static HTML · Deployable public artifact whose structure is defined by the generator. · `index.html`
- **Static File Host**: deployment boundary · Any static host can serve the committed HTML artifact.
- **Browser User**: client runtime
