"""Inline-SVG charts from real data, for a venture's static pages. Copy this file into ventures//product/ and import it from your site generator. Standard library only, like gen_site.py. WHY INLINE SVG AND NOT A CHART LIBRARY. These pages are static files built by a Python pipeline and served from GitHub Pages. A CDN chart library would add a blocking third-party request, break the reviewer's no-unknown-script rule, show nothing until JS runs, and render an empty box for anyone whose script blocked. SVG generated at build time has the numbers baked in: it paints instantly, it works with JS off, it survives being screenshotted into a post, and the figure cannot silently disagree with the dataset because it IS the dataset. WHAT A CHART IS FOR HERE. Not a research paper. A stranger gives the page about two seconds. One number, large, that makes the scale of the thing land — then the shape of the data underneath it. Accurate AND arresting; the accuracy is what makes it arresting, because the numbers are real and specific. Rules baked in so they cannot be forgotten: * every mark is DIRECTLY LABELLED — no hover, no legend to decode, and it keeps the palette legal for colour-blind readers; * one axis, never two scales on one chart; * a single series uses the sequential blue ramp; multiple series use a validated categorical order, never cycled; * text is ink-coloured, never series-coloured — a mark beside it carries identity; * grid and axes recede; * every figure carries a caption naming the source and the date, because an unattributed number on a page selling data is worth nothing; * dark mode is honoured via prefers-color-scheme. Palette validated with the dataviz palette checker (light and dark): lightness band, chroma floor, CVD separation, normal-vision floor, contrast.
