+# Project Hints and Findings
+
+## Properties Panel Element Detection Issue (Fixed)
+
+### Problem
+The properties panel had timing issues detecting rendered elements because:
+1. Elements are rendered asynchronously via lit's `render()` function in the dashboard component
+2. The properties panel tried to find elements immediately without waiting for render completion
+3. Element search only looked at direct children of the viewport, missing nested elements or those inside shadow DOM
+
+### Solution Implemented
+1. Added a 100ms initial delay to allow render completion
+2. Implemented recursive element search that:
+   - Searches through nested children up to 5 levels deep
+   - Checks shadow roots of elements
+   - Handles complex DOM structures
+3. Added retry mechanism with up to 5 attempts (200ms between retries)
+4. Improved error messages to show retry count
+
+### Code Flow
+1. Dashboard renders element demo into viewport using `render(anonItem.demo(), viewport)`
+2. Properties panel waits, then searches recursively for the element instance
+3. If not found, retries with delays to handle async rendering
+4. Once found, extracts and displays element properties
+
+## Demo Tools
+
+### DeesDemoWrapper Component
+A utility component for wrapping demo elements with post-render functionality.
+
+**Usage:**
+```typescript
+import * as demoTools from '@design.estate/dees-wcctools/demotools';
+
+// In your demo function:
+demo: () => html`
+  <dees-demowrapper .runAfterRender=${(children: HTMLCollection) => {
+    // Access all slotted elements
+    const firstElement = children[0] as HTMLElement;
+    firstElement.setAttribute('data-demo', 'true');
+    console.log('All slotted elements:', children);
+    
+    // Work with multiple elements
+    Array.from(children).forEach(child => {
+      console.log('Element rendered:', child);
+    });
+  }}>
+    <my-custom-element></my-custom-element>
+    <div>Additional content</div>
+  </dees-demowrapper>
+`
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Wraps demo elements without affecting layout (uses `display: contents`)
+- Provides access to ALL slotted elements via HTMLCollection after mounting
+- Supports async operations in runAfterRender callback
+- Automatically handles timing to ensure elements are fully rendered
+- Can handle multiple slotted elements, not just the first one

+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Set Up Your Catalogue
+
+```typescript
+// catalogue.ts
+import { setupWccTools } from '@design.estate/dees-wcctools';
+import { html } from 'lit';
+
+// Import your components
+import './components/my-button.js';
+import './components/my-card.js';
+
+// Define elements for the catalogue
+const elements = {
+  'my-button': MyButton,
+  'my-card': MyCard,
+};
+
+// Optionally define pages
+const pages = {
+  'home': () => html`
+    <div style="padding: 20px;">
+      <h1>Welcome to My Component Library</h1>
+      <p>Browse components using the sidebar.</p>
+    </div>
+  `,
+  'getting-started': () => html`
+    <div style="padding: 20px;">
+      <h2>Getting Started</h2>
+      <p>Installation and usage instructions...</p>
+    </div>
+  `,
+};
+
+// Initialize the catalogue
+setupWccTools(elements, pages);
+```
+
+### 3. Create an HTML Entry Point
+
+```html
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html>
+<head>
+  <title>Component Catalogue</title>
+  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
+</head>
+<body style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">
+  <script type="module" src="./catalogue.js"></script>
+</body>
+</html>
+```
+
+## Features
+
+### 🎯 Live Property Editing
+The properties panel automatically detects and allows editing of:
+- **String** properties with text inputs
+- **Number** properties with number inputs
+- **Boolean** properties with checkboxes
+- **Enum** properties with select dropdowns
+- **Object** and **Array** properties (read-only display)
+
+### 📱 Viewport Testing
+Test your components across different screen sizes:
+- **Phone** (320px width)
+- **Phablet** (600px width)
+- **Tablet** (768px width)
+- **Desktop** (full width)
+
+### 🌓 Theme Support
+Components automatically adapt to light/dark themes using the `goBright` property:
+
+```typescript
+public render() {
+  return html`
+    <div class="${this.goBright ? 'light-theme' : 'dark-theme'}">
+      <!-- Your component content -->
+    </div>
+  `;
+}
+```
+
+Or use CSS custom properties:
+```typescript
+import { cssManager } from '@design.estate/dees-element';
+
+public static styles = [
+  css`
+    :host {
+      color: ${cssManager.bdTheme('#000', '#fff')};
+      background: ${cssManager.bdTheme('#fff', '#000')};
+    }
+  `
+];
+```
+
+### 🧪 Advanced Demo Tools
+
+The demo tools provide enhanced testing capabilities:
+
+```typescript
+import * as demoTools from '@design.estate/dees-wcctools/demotools';
+
+@customElement('my-component')
+export class MyComponent extends DeesElement {
+  public static demo = () => html`
+    <dees-demowrapper .runAfterRender=${async (children: HTMLCollection) => {
+      // Access all slotted elements
+      console.log('Slotted elements:', children.length);
+      
+      // Access specific element (e.g., first child)
+      const myComponent = children[0] as MyComponent;
+      console.log('Component mounted:', myComponent);
+      
+      // Simulate user interactions
+      myComponent.value = 'Test value';
+      await myComponent.updateComplete;
+      
+      // Trigger methods
+      myComponent.handleClick();
+      
+      // Work with multiple elements if present
+      Array.from(children).forEach((child, index) => {
+        console.log(`Child ${index}:`, child.tagName);
+      });
+    }}>
+      <my-component></my-component>
+      <div>Additional content</div>
+    </dees-demowrapper>
+  `;
+}
+```
+
+### 🎭 Container Queries Support
+
+Components can respond to their container size:
+
+```typescript
+public static styles = [
+  css`
+    @container wccToolsViewport (min-width: 768px) {
+      :host {
+        flex-direction: row;
+      }
+    }
+    
+    @container wccToolsViewport (max-width: 767px) {
+      :host {
+        flex-direction: column;
+      }
+    }
+  `
+];
+```
+
+## Component Guidelines
+
+### Required for Catalogue Display
+1. Components must expose a static `demo` property returning a Lit template
+2. Use `@property()` decorators for properties you want to be editable
+3. Export component classes for proper detection
+
+### Best Practices
+```typescript
+@customElement('best-practice-component')
+export class BestPracticeComponent extends DeesElement {
+  // ✅ Static demo property
+  public static demo = () => html`
+    <best-practice-component 
+      .complexProp=${{ key: 'value' }}
+      simpleAttribute="test"
+    ></best-practice-component>
+  `;
+
+  // ✅ Typed properties with defaults
+  @property({ type: String })
+  public title: string = 'Default Title';
+
+  // ✅ Complex property without attribute
+  @property({ attribute: false })
+  public complexProp: { key: string } = { key: 'default' };
+
+  // ✅ Enum with proper typing
+  @property({ type: String })
+  public variant: 'small' | 'medium' | 'large' = 'medium';
+}
+```
+
+## URL Routing
+
+The catalogue uses URL routing for deep linking:
+```
+/wcctools-route/:type/:name/:viewport/:theme
+
+Example:
+/wcctools-route/element/my-button/desktop/dark
+/wcctools-route/page/home/tablet/bright
+```
+
+## Development Workflow
+
+### Build and Watch
+```json
+{
+  "scripts": {
+    "build": "tsbuild tsfolders --allowimplicitany && tsbundle element",
+    "watch": "tswatch element",
+    "serve": "http-server ./dist"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Project Structure
+```
+my-components/
+├── src/
+│   ├── components/
+│   │   ├── my-button.ts
+│   │   └── my-card.ts
+│   └── catalogue.ts
+├── dist/
+├── index.html
+└── package.json
+```
+
+## Advanced Features
+
+### Custom Property Handlers
+For complex property types, implement custom logic in your demo:
+
+```typescript
+public static demo = () => html`
+  <dees-demowrapper .runAfterRender=${(children) => {
+    // Set up complex property handling for all children
+    Array.from(children).forEach(child => {
+      child.addEventListener('property-change', (e) => {
+        console.log('Property changed:', e.detail);
+      });
+    });
+  }}>
+    <my-component></my-component>
+  </dees-demowrapper>
+`;
+```
+
+### Responsive Testing Helpers
+```typescript
+import * as domtools from '@design.estate/dees-domtools';
+
+public static styles = [
+  // Media query helpers
+  domtools.breakpoints.cssForPhone(css`
+    :host { font-size: 14px; }
+  `),
+  
+  domtools.breakpoints.cssForTablet(css`
+    :host { font-size: 16px; }
+  `),
+  
+  domtools.breakpoints.cssForDesktop(css`
+    :host { font-size: 18px; }
+  `)
+];
+```

+# Fix Properties Panel Element Detection (COMPLETED)
+
+To fix the element detection issue, reread CLAUDE.md first.
+
+## Problem Analysis
+The properties panel has timing issues detecting rendered elements because:
+1. Elements are rendered asynchronously via lit's `render()` in the dashboard
+2. Properties panel tries to find elements immediately without waiting for render completion
+3. Element search only looks at direct children, missing nested/shadow DOM elements
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### 1. Add proper synchronization ✅
+- Add a delay or await render completion before element detection
+- Use MutationObserver or lit's updateComplete promises
+
+### 2. Improve element search algorithm ✅
+- Search recursively through all descendants, not just direct children
+- Handle shadow DOM boundaries properly
+- Support elements wrapped in containers
+
+### 3. Add retry mechanism ✅
+- If element not found, retry after a delay
+- Add maximum retry attempts to prevent infinite loops
+- Clear error state when element is eventually found
+
+## Code Changes Required
+1. Modify `wcc-properties.ts` createProperties() method ✅
+2. Add element search utility function ✅
+3. Improve error handling and user feedback ✅
+
+# Demo Wrapper Implementation (COMPLETED)
+
+## Created DeesDemoWrapper Component
+- Location: ts_demotools/demotools.ts
+- Allows wrapping demo elements with post-render functionality
+- Provides runAfterRender callback that receives ALL slotted elements as HTMLCollection
+- Uses display: contents to not affect layout
+- Handles timing automatically with 50ms delay after firstUpdated
+- Supports both sync and async callbacks
+- Exports available at @design.estate/dees-wcctools/demotools (lowercase)
+
+# Documentation Update (COMPLETED)
+
+## Updated readme.md with:
+- Comprehensive overview with feature highlights
+- Quick start guide with code examples
+- Detailed feature documentation
+- Advanced demo tools usage
+- Best practices and guidelines
+- API reference
+- Browser support information
+- Complete examples for all major features
+
+# Enhanced DemoWrapper (COMPLETED)
+
+## Modified runAfterRender callback:
+- Now receives HTMLCollection of ALL slotted elements instead of just the first one
+- Allows access to complete slotted DOM structure
+- Updated documentation with correct import path (lowercase 'demotools')
+- Examples show how to work with multiple slotted elements
+- Maintains backward compatibility by accessing elements via index
