# Initial plan

## Order

1. MQTT client, subscribing to the retained vehicle topics. Text readout only —
   prove the contract before drawing anything.
2. Gauges.
3. Moving map: MapLibre against the PMTiles basemap served by the Orin, with the
   position from `yukart/gnss/fix`. No routing involved.
4. Guidance from `yukart/nav/guidance`, once [svc-nav](gitea:yukart/svc-nav) publishes it.

A moving map with position, heading and trace is most of the value in a car and
needs no routing engine at all. Routing is the expensive last fraction.

## Open

- **Transport.** Over USB the tablet has an IP link via RNDIS, so it can reach the
  broker directly. Whether it should, or should go through `svc-gw`, is decided in
  that repo — see its initial plan.
- **CJK labels.** MapLibre cannot ship Japanese glyph sets as SDF ranges. Local
  font rendering must be configured, or labels will be slow or absent.
- **Sunlight.** A typical tablet is unreadable through a windscreen in daylight.
  This is a hardware problem, but the UI should not make it worse.
