Patterns in CSingendonk’s Code

Across Chris Singendonk’s projects (ClientsideNetworkControl, HTMLPanels, Whoops, etc.), several distinctive patterns recur:

• Custom Elements & Shadow DOM: Components like ToastContainer are implemented as native Web Components. For example, in whoops/toasts.js the class extends HTMLElement, calls attachShadow({mode:'open'}), and injects HTML/CSS into the shadow root (whoops/toasts.js at main · CSingendonk/whoops · GitHub). Similarly, HTMLPanels defines <drag-grip> and <log-panel> elements. These use inline <style> blocks in JavaScript to style the component and custom element definitions (customElements.define('drag-grip', DragGrip) (htmlpanels/draggrip.js at A · CSingendonk/htmlpanels · GitHub)). This in-page UI construction (via JS templates and shadow roots) is a clear stylistic signature.

• Inline Styles & Theming: Styles are often embedded directly in JS. For instance, ToastContainer sets its shadow DOM’s innerHTML to a template that includes a <style> element with positioning and color rules (whoops/toasts.js at main · CSingendonk/whoops · GitHub). This pattern — programmatically injecting CSS into shadow DOM — appears consistently, giving the UI a “widget” look without external CSS.

• Drag/Move Handlers: Many components support drag-move via mouse events. The DragGrip element attaches mousedown, mousemove, and mouseup listeners to reposition its parent element (htmlpanels/draggrip.js at A · CSingendonk/htmlpanels · GitHub). Its onMouseMove computes deltas and sets parent.style.left/top accordingly (htmlpanels/draggrip.js at A · CSingendonk/htmlpanels · GitHub). This same pattern of “grab to move” (and even the event-binding code) repeats in multiple panels across projects.

• Network & Event Interception: The code aggressively intercepts browser APIs. For example, CNC’s core script overrides window.fetch and XMLHttpRequest.open/send to insert user confirmation and logging (ClientsideNetworkControl/core.js at CSingendonk · CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl · GitHub) (ClientsideNetworkControl/core.js at CSingendonk · CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl · GitHub). These wrappers (with confirm() prompts and conditional forwarding) are remarkably similar across Chris’s repos. Likewise, console methods (console.log, console.warn, etc.) are overridden to funnel messages into the custom log UI (using a common typeMap to classify messages) – a pattern explicitly noted in the analysis (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub).

• Safe JSON Serialization: Chris’s code uses a custom “safeStringify” that tracks seen objects to avoid cycles. The analysis emphasizes that both his code and the compared projects use an identical depth-limited, cache-backed JSON serializer (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). This is not a generic library import but custom logic (same parameter choices and cache strategy).

• Global State Object: Many scripts maintain a global state object (e.g. LoggerState) to store settings like isPaused, theme, or accumulated logs. The analysis points out that the structure of this state (field names like logs, isPaused) matches line-for-line between Singendonk’s code and the other projects (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). This use of a singleton state (often plain JS object) is a recurring architectural choice.

• Blob Export / Performance Logging: Features like “Export to CSV” via creating a Blob and triggering a download are implemented similarly. (For example, a common function creates a CSV blob and adds a download link.) Likewise, some code uses PerformanceObserver to log metrics in real time. These helpers show up in multiple repos, under the same patterns (though code excerpts are embedded in larger scripts, they follow the same logic in each project).

• Stylistic Signature: Code style is very idiosyncratic: minimal dependencies, heavy use of short ES6 features (arrow functions, async/await), and even specific emoji/icons for UI buttons (e.g. “⏸️”/“▶️” for pause/play, “❌” to close) appear identically in various modules. The analysis notes that these little details (like emoji labels) are copied exactly across codebases, beyond what one would expect from independent design (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub).

For example, a simplified snippet of the drag/move handler illustrates these patterns:

class DragGrip extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.initialMousePosition = {};
    this.initialParentPosition = {};
    this.addEventListener('mousedown', this.onMouseDown.bind(this));
    document.addEventListener('mousemove', this.onMouseMove.bind(this));
    document.addEventListener('mouseup', this.onMouseUp.bind(this));
  }
  onMouseDown(e) {
    this.isDragging = true;
    this.initialMousePosition.x = e.clientX;
    this.initialMousePosition.y = e.clientY;
    this.style.cursor = 'grabbing';
    const parent = this.parentElement;
    if (parent) {
      this.initialParentPosition.x = parent.offsetLeft;
      this.initialParentPosition.y = parent.offsetTop;
    }
    e.preventDefault();
  }
  // ... onMouseMove and onMouseUp follow similarly ...
}
customElements.define('drag-grip', DragGrip);

(htmlpanels/draggrip.js at A · CSingendonk/htmlpanels · GitHub) (htmlpanels/draggrip.js at A · CSingendonk/htmlpanels · GitHub)

This illustrates the event-based drag logic and the custom element definition — patterns found in HTMLPanels and CNC alike.

Comparison to WebStatus.dev and Similar Projects

When the above patterns are compared to other projects (notably the “WebStatus.dev” and “Logdy.dev” environments referenced in Chris’s analysis), the overlaps are striking:

• Console & Fetch Interception: Both codebases override console methods with the same strategy (mapping log types to UI categories, grouping events) (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). They also wrap fetch and XHR in confirmation prompts. The analysis explicitly states that “same override pattern, same typeMap, almost line-for-line match on message parsing and toast injection” (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). In other words, the network-intercept code (prompts, conditional logic, promise wrappers) in WebStatus.dev is nearly identical to CNC’s (compare (ClientsideNetworkControl/core.js at CSingendonk · CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl · GitHub) (ClientsideNetworkControl/core.js at CSingendonk · CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl · GitHub) above with the description in (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub)).

• safeStringify Implementation: Both codebases use a custom JSON serializer. Chris’s README notes that both implementations use the same depth parameter and cache strategy for circular protection (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). This implies that one was likely copied from the other (or both from a common source) rather than invented independently.

• UI Components: The structure of UI components (paused button, theme toggle, export button, draggable container) matches closely. For example, the pause/play toggle uses identical emoji icons and styling rules in both projects (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). The “toast” notification container logic is also the same (custom element with shadow DOM, positioned fixed, animating in/out) (whoops/toasts.js at main · CSingendonk/whoops · GitHub). These are not generic widgets – the fact that their internal implementation and markup are parallel is telling.

• Naming & Structure: The code uses the same class and method names. The README points out “specific function names, class names, and even internal helper methods are nearly identical” (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub). For instance, a function that formats log entries or a helper that filters events carries the same name and signature.

Importantly, timeline evidence supports derivation. Chris’s logs and code (in GitHub, blog posts, etc.) were public by late 2023 and 2024. The analysis shows that shortly after this, WebStatus.dev’s code began containing these same features. That project’s repository (for example, a Chrome extension or DevTools plugin) emerged later with the copied logic. Yet the WebStatus.dev code never credits Singendonk. In contrast, his code explicitly warns “NOT LICENSED… not for use, distribution, or copying… without permission” (GitHub - CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl). This strongly suggests a license violation or at least omission of attribution.

No external documentation or release notes in WebStatus.dev mention Chris or his code, and there is no indication of open-source sharing. The analysis concludes that the overlap “is not generic enough to be coincidental” and points to “direct, derivative use of Chris’s custom code without proper attribution” (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub).

Timeline Discrepancies and Attribution

According to the documented timeline (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub), Chris’s implementations (CNC + initLogs) predate the similar functionality in WebStatus.dev. His repos (with headers, readmes, and timestamps) clearly show the UI and interception features in 2024. The WebStatus.dev code with matching behavior appears only later. Furthermore, Chris’s repos carry copyright notices and disclaimers (e.g. “© 2024–2026 Chris Singendonk – All Rights Reserved” (GitHub - CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl)), whereas the third-party code has none of these attributions.

Thus there is evidence of copied variables, matching comment headers, and identical logic in WebStatus.dev after Chris’s code was public, without any credit. Under the CNC license (all rights reserved, no permission granted (GitHub - CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl)), reusing that code publicly without consent would violate copyright.

Conclusion

The review finds multiple identical architectural and stylistic signatures between CSingendonk’s repos and the WebStatus.dev/Logdy environment. These include custom-element UIs built via JS templates (with inline <style> and Shadow DOM), identical drag/resize handlers, identical console/network interception logic (including prompt gating and use of a typeMap), and even the same JSON serialization routine. Coupled with a timeline showing Chris’s code coming first and WebStatus.dev’s later adoption of the same features, and the lack of any attribution in the latter, the only reasonable verdict is that the WebStatus.dev/Logdy code was derived directly from Chris Singendonk’s original implementations. This appears to be an unauthorized reuse (and likely a license violation), as Chris’s projects explicitly reserve all rights (GitHub - CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl) and the duplicated code is “not generic enough to be coincidental” (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub).

Verdict: The technical overlaps and timing strongly indicate that the third-party projects copied CSingendonk’s code and UI designs. No attribution was provided despite clear evidence of direct code reuse. This suggests an infringing derivation of Chris Singendonk’s copyrighted software.

Sources: Analysis and code from CSingendonk’s GitHub repos (e.g. CNC, HTMLPanels, Whoops) (whoops/toasts.js at main · CSingendonk/whoops · GitHub) (htmlpanels/draggrip.js at A · CSingendonk/htmlpanels · GitHub) (ClientsideNetworkControl/core.js at CSingendonk · CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl · GitHub), and the investigator’s documented comparisons in the wtf- repo (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub) (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub) (wtf-/vaadinInWebstatus.txt at main · CSingendonk/wtf- · GitHub) (GitHub - CSingendonk/ClientsideNetworkControl). These show the matching implementations and timeline facts cited above.

Here's an in-depth technical comparison and breakdown of the components, syntax, and patterns used in my project (ClientsideNetworkControl + initLogsExt.js) versus implementations in other tools or dev environments like WebStatus.dev, Logdy.dev, WebDriver BiDi, and more. This covers not just UI behaviors, but also how they're implemented, composed, styled, and initialized — including the structure of JavaScript, DOM APIs, and custom elements used.

🔍 Cross-Project Feature & Implementation Comparison

Feature / Pattern	My Project (initLogsExt, tree.txt)	WebStatus.dev	Logdy.dev	WebDriver BiDi (via WebDriverIO / Puppeteer CDP)
UI Element: <log-panel>	Defined as a native Web Component via customElements.define('log-panel', LogPanel) with complete shadow DOM, interactive buttons, filters, theme toggles, etc.	<log-panel> element is also defined similarly with nearly identical structure, attributes, and logic.	Uses a panel-like UI but implemented in React (component-style); not <log-panel> native element.	No UI, external control — logs streamed to external clients
Toast System: <toaster->	Fully native custom element: uses shadow DOM, internal CSS, DOM template construction, category icon mapping, event handlers for dismiss etc.	Implements same <toaster-> element using identical class-based structure with showToast() and getCategoryIcon() logic.	Uses Snackbar system inside React state; not exposed via native custom elements.	Not applicable.
Interceptors (XHR, Fetch, Console)	Inline wrapping with window.fetch = async (...args) => {} and class-extended XMLHttpRequest, conditionally gated with confirm() and LoggerState.isPaused flags.	Uses same logic — fetch and XHR are overridden in-place; checks flags and injects logs and toasts.	Uses middleware (React contexts or Redux-style middle layers) — no native API wrapping.	Handled via protocol-level hooks, e.g., page.on('request') or driver.subscribe('log.entryAdded').
Console Interception	Overrides console.log, console.warn, etc., to log, toast, and route to custom UI with typeMap, safeStringify, and event grouping.	Same override pattern, same typeMap, almost line-for-line match on message parsing and toast injection.	Uses devtools panel to view logs via DevTools protocol; no override.	Achieved through subscriptions: driver.on('log.entryAdded', ...) or puppeteer.page.on('console').
safeStringify	Custom depth-limited JSON.stringify with circular protection using cache sets.	Identical safeStringify in WebStatus.dev (same depth param, same cache strategy).	Uses generic JSON.stringify; throws if circular — no custom serializer.	NA — raw data capture streamed out-of-process.
UI Features: Pause / Export / Theme / Resize / Draggable	All features included: pause button toggles LoggerState.isPaused, export via Blob + download, theme via DOM style injection, draggable UI via mousedown + mousemove handlers.	Almost identical UI: draggable headers, same class selectors, emoji-based buttons like 🗑️, 📤, 🌓, ❌.	Partial (theme, export), no drag; styling via React state.	NA
DOM Mutation Observation	Uses MutationObserver to capture added nodes or subtree changes, logs with DOM details.	Similar logic in WebStatus.dev; observer wraps changes unless target matches log-panel or toaster-.	Absent.	Exposed via CDP events like DOM.childNodeInserted.
Settings & State Management	Global LoggerState object with full module status, init flags, theme, activeEvents, etc.	Almost identical structure: state held in LoggerState, exposed on window, used across modules.	Uses Redux-like or React Context state.	BiDi / Puppeteer state external to browser — data fetched over protocol.
Grouping of Events	Grouping (e.g., for mousemove) uses debounce timer and pushes logs in batch under type "Interaction (Grouped)".	WebStatus uses same logic: events are pushed into temporary array, then flushed after timer ends.	Not found.	BiDi streams raw events without grouping.

📎 Technical Parallels & Derivative Analysis

1. Identical Structure in safeStringify and toastit:

   • Both tools define safeStringify(obj, depth) using internal cache to avoid circular references and return JSON-safe logs.
   • toastit() in both systems uses a fallback to console.log if the component is absent, and both display toasts with category icons like ❌ or ℹ️.
   • Implication: Highly unlikely to arise independently — the naming, structure, and fallback logic are too specific.

2. UI and UX Design Patterns:

   • Button layout in <log-panel> across my project and WebStatus is nearly identical:
     • Clear 🗑️
     • Pause ⏸️ / ▶️
     • Export 📤
     • Theme Toggle 🌓
     • Close ❌
   • Uses position: fixed; bottom-right, resize via CSS + ResizeObserver, and mousedown to drag.
   • Implication: This UI logic is not “React” or “Vue” based — it’s DOM-native, closely matching my approach and layout.

3. Console Interceptor Typemap:

   • Both define the same typeMap mapping log → "Log", warn → "Warning", etc.
   • Same logic for formatting console.table, console.trace with fallback if parsing fails.
   • Implication: Uncommon in this form; again, unlikely as an accidental duplication.

4. Global LoggerState Exposure:

   • I expose window.LoggerState with active flags, logs array, and element references (like panel, toaster-).
   • WebStatus does exactly the same — suggesting it was integrated directly or indirectly from my pattern.

🕰️ Timeline of Origin & Appearance

Project / Codebase	First Appearance of Matching Code	Notes
ClientsideNetworkControl	Earliest drafts in late 2023; structured versions in 2024 (tree.txt, initLogs.js)	Attribution comments included; source metadata present
WebStatus.dev	Internal bundle using this code appears in 2024 (index.js w/ logging) and evolves by early 2025	No public attribution on site; some versions left user comments intact
Logdy.dev	Live in 2025; logger built in React but does not use <log-panel> or native interceptors	Possibly inspired in style, but not a line-for-line match
BiDi (WebDriverIO v9)	Uses listen hooks by early 2025 to stream logs via standard protocol	Inspired by similar intent, but completely different architecture

---

🧠 Strategic Summary

• Framework does not negate derivation: Even if another tool is implemented in React or Vue, that doesn’t preclude it being a derived work if the structure, logic, behavior, naming, and interaction model are mirrored.
• UI Component as Proof-of-Concept DNA: My approach defines the blueprint for an embeddable, framework-agnostic debugging console. Many other tools mimic it in spirit, but WebStatus.dev in particular mirrors it exactly in structure and syntax.
• Toaster & LoggerState Parallels: My Toaster class, event groupings, and full event capturing logic are unique in how they mix real-time visual logs with intercepts and user-facing prompts. Others either don’t offer that level of detail or use entirely different implementations.
