Summary of Changes

Hello @Gambitnl, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces a new React application designed to procedurally generate village layouts. It integrates the Wave Function Collapse (WFC) algorithm to create diverse village structures based on user-defined parameters such as village type, size, and specific features. The application provides an intuitive web-based interface for users to interact with the generator and visualize the results, and it's set up for easy deployment.

Highlights

New React/TypeScript Application: A complete new React and TypeScript application has been scaffolded under the web/ directory, providing the foundation for the village generator.
Village Generation Logic with WFC: Core services (villageGenerationService.ts) have been implemented to generate village layouts using the Wave Function Collapse (WFC) algorithm, including defining specific WFC tiles and their adjacency rules (village.ts).
Interactive Web UI for Configuration: An interactive web user interface has been developed in App.tsx, allowing users to select village type (farming, fishing, fortified), size (small, medium), and toggle the inclusion of features like farmland, market, walls, and wells, all controlled by a 'Generate Village' button.
SVG Rendering of Village Layouts: The VillagePane.tsx component has been created to visually render the generated village layout using SVG elements, effectively displaying roads, various buildings, and walls.
Vercel Deployment Configuration: A vercel.json file has been added to configure the project for seamless deployment on Vercel, ensuring the compiled web application is correctly served.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a React-based village generator using Wave Function Collapse. The implementation is a good starting point, but there are several areas for improvement. My review includes feedback on Vercel configuration, dependency management, potential race conditions in React hooks, and code clarity and efficiency in the generation logic. Addressing these points will improve the robustness and maintainability of the new web application.

web/package.json

+    "@types/react": "^19.1.9",
+    "@types/react-dom": "^19.1.7",


There is a version mismatch between the React dependencies and their corresponding type definitions. You are using React version 18, but the types are for version 19. This can lead to incorrect type checking, build errors, or unexpected behavior. Please align the versions of the type definitions with the library versions to ensure type safety.

"@types/react": "^18.2.0", "@types/react-dom": "^18.2.0",

web/src/hooks/useSubmapProceduralData.ts

+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (currentWorldBiomeId === 'village') {
+      const seed = simpleHash(JSON.stringify(options));
+      generateWfcGrid(seed, options).then((grid) => {
+        setVillageLayout(transformGridToLayout(grid, options));
+      });
+    } else {
+      setVillageLayout(undefined);
+    }
+  }, [currentWorldBiomeId, options]);


The useEffect hook performs an asynchronous operation but lacks a cleanup function. If the component re-renders with new props (currentWorldBiomeId or options) before the generateWfcGrid promise resolves, you could have a race condition where a stale result incorrectly updates the state. You should add a cleanup function to ignore stale promise resolutions.

Here is an example of how to fix it:

useEffect(() => { let active = true; if (currentWorldBiomeId === 'village') { const seed = simpleHash(JSON.stringify(options)); generateWfcGrid(seed, options).then((grid) => { if (active) { setVillageLayout(transformGridToLayout(grid, options)); } }); } else { setVillageLayout(undefined); } return () => { active = false; }; }, [currentWorldBiomeId, options]);

vercel.json

+    { "src": "web/package.json", "use": "@vercel/static-build", "config": { "distDir": "web" } }
+  ],
+  "routes": [
+    { "src": "/(.*)", "dest": "/web/$1" }


The dest property in this route configuration appears to be incorrect for a Vercel deployment. With @vercel/static-build and distDir: "web", the content of the web directory is served from the project root. This route will rewrite an incoming request like / to /web/, causing Vercel to look for web/index.html inside the output directory, which is not the intended structure. The destination should likely not include the /web prefix to serve files correctly.

{ "src": "/(.*)", "dest": "/$1" }

web/package.json

+  "scripts": {
+    "start": "npm run build -- --watch",
+    "build": "tsc",
+    "test": "echo 'No tests specified'"


The test script is currently a no-op (echo 'No tests specified'). However, the pull request description mentions npm --prefix web test as a testing step. Please either implement tests or update the PR description and script to reflect the current state.

gemini-code-assist · 2025-08-02T21:39:48Z

web/src/App.tsx

+  const handleSelect = (
+    key: 'type' | 'size'
+  ) => (e: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLSelectElement>) => {
+    setOptions((prev) => ({ ...prev, [key]: e.target.value as any }));


Using as any bypasses TypeScript's type safety and should be avoided. You can use a more specific type assertion here to maintain type safety while still satisfying the compiler.

setOptions((prev) => ({ ...prev, [key]: e.target.value as typeof prev[key] }));

web/src/App.tsx

+        <label style={{ marginLeft: '1rem' }}>
+          <input
+            type="checkbox"
+            checked={options.includeFarmland !== false}


The expression checked={options.includeFarmland !== false} can be confusing because it evaluates to true if options.includeFarmland is either true or undefined. A more explicit and common pattern is to use a double negation (!!) to convert the value to a boolean. With !!, undefined correctly becomes false. This makes the intent clearer and the code less prone to bugs. This feedback applies to the other checkboxes in this component as well.

checked={!!options.includeFarmland}

gemini-code-assist · 2025-08-02T21:39:48Z

web/src/services/villageGenerationService.ts

+  const allowFarmland = options.includeFarmland !== false;
+  const allowMarket = options.includeMarket !== false;
+  const allowWalls = options.includeWalls !== false;
+  const allowWells = options.includeWells !== false;


The logic options.includeFarmland !== false is used to determine if a feature is enabled. This can be ambiguous because it treats undefined as true. A clearer approach is to use the nullish coalescing operator (??) to provide an explicit default value. For example, options.includeFarmland ?? true clearly states that if the option is undefined, it should be treated as true. This improves code readability and maintainability. This applies to allowMarket, allowWalls, and allowWells as well.

Suggested change

const allowFarmland = options.includeFarmland !== false;

const allowMarket = options.includeMarket !== false;

const allowWalls = options.includeWalls !== false;

const allowWells = options.includeWells !== false;

const allowFarmland = options.includeFarmland ?? true;

const allowMarket = options.includeMarket ?? true;

const allowWalls = options.includeWalls ?? true;

const allowWells = options.includeWells ?? true;

gemini-code-assist · 2025-08-02T21:39:49Z

web/src/services/villageGenerationService.ts

+  if (!allowWalls) layout.walls = [];
+  if (!allowFarmland)
+    layout.buildings = layout.buildings.filter((b) => b.type !== 'farmland');
+  if (!allowMarket)
+    layout.buildings = layout.buildings.filter((b) => b.type !== 'market');
+  if (!allowWells)
+    layout.buildings = layout.buildings.filter((b) => b.type !== 'well');


These filtering operations at the end of the function are redundant. The logic inside the forEach loop already checks if a feature (e.g., allowWalls, allowFarmland) is enabled before adding the corresponding elements to the layout. Removing these final filter steps will make the code more efficient and less confusing.
