A New Dash -p3- | Vdash Making

Use inline SVG for crisp, scalable dashes:

const synth = window.speechSynthesis; function voiceAlert(message, priority = 'low') if (priority === 'high' && synth.speaking) synth.cancel();

// Draw once per frame drawCanvas(); updateDOM();

export() return JSON.stringify(this.buffer); VDash Making A New Dash -P3-

const utterance = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance(message); utterance.rate = 1.2; utterance.pitch = 1.0; synth.speak(utterance);

Use Canvas for gauges/needles , DOM for text/data . 2.2 RequestAnimationFrame Loop function renderLoop() if (!VDash.isVisible) return; // Batch all updates batchUpdates();
