## What's implemented - Announcements carousel using MudCarousel with automatic cycling and bullets. - Application status summary using MudChart (donut) with CustomGraphics text overlay. - Tabbed content with MudTabs and a MudTabPanel listing recent applications. - Simple data table using MudSimpleTable with hover/striped rows and status MudChip indicators. - Small action affordance via MudIconButton (edit icon). ## Key components - MudContainer, MudGrid, MudItem, MudPaper - MudCarousel<T>, MudChart, MudTabs, MudTabPanel - MudSimpleTable, MudChip, MudIconButton, MudText, MudLink - ChartOptions, Colors palette, CustomGraphics - Data models: ApplicationStatusModel, AnnouncementModel ## How it works - UI state is stored in private fields in the @code block (_announcements, _applications, _chartData/_chartLabels). - OnInitialized populates the demo lists; the table iterates _applications in a foreach loop. - MudChart receives InputData/InputLabels and ChartOptions; CustomGraphics inserts SVG text for a center label and total. - MudChip color is set conditionally based on item.Status (ternary expression) to reflect success vs error. - MudCarousel ItemTemplate reads ImageUrl via a data attribute; CSS attempts to set background-image from that attribute. - No edit action handler is wired; MudIconButton is a visual placeholder. ## Styling - Uses MudBlazor components and Colors palette (e.g., Colors.Blue.Darken3 in ChartOptions). - Custom CSS targets .mud-simple-table th/td for header color and centering and styles .announcement-carousel-item overlay. - Layout is responsive via MudGrid (xs/md breakpoints) and MudItem column sizing. - Note: CSS rule using background-image: url(attr(data-bg-image)) relies on attr() for URLs which is not supported cross-browser; consider setting style attribute or inline background-image in the template. ## Reuse steps 1. Add the MudBlazor NuGet package and any required peer packages. 2. In Program.cs register MudBlazor services (e.g., builder.Services.AddMudServices()). 3. Import MudBlazor namespace in _Imports.razor or the component: @using MudBlazor. 4. Add the component Razor file and models (ApplicationStatusModel, AnnouncementModel); include the CSS rules in site stylesheet or component-scoped file. 5. Replace demo lists with injected data services (e.g., IApplicationService) and implement handlers for actions (edit button). ## Limitations & next steps - This is a single-page UI scaffold generated by Instruct UI; it contains static demo data and no backend integration. - Edit buttons lack event handlers and there is no CRUD or API wiring; authentication and authorization are not included. - The CSS technique for setting background images via attr() is brittle; set element style attributes or apply inline background-image in the template for reliability. - Consider adding paging/sorting/filtering (MudTable or MudTableServerData) for large datasets, accessibility improvements, and real-time updates for the chart data.
