PART I
Warm-up
Reconnect with a useful idea before starting handle an explicit window-close event. In one or two sentences, describe the input, output or host boundary from the previous exercise that this lesson builds on. If you are arriving directly, skim the worked example first; there is no locked prerequisite.
A rough note is enough. You can revise it after the example.
PART II
Instruction & guided example
Integrate the support request lifecycle
Closing a window ends an owner, not all work everywhere. A window-close event is a host lifecycle signal. The source leaves cancellation methods and exact late-result rules unresolved, so use an explicit exercise contract. Closing one owner must not silently cancel another owner or grant a late callback permission to update an unrelated screen.
Project inputs: W12 holds draft D12; request R12 is submitted; close is requested before queue response. Host contract can query R12 by stable identity but gives no cancel-after-submit promise. The query later confirms Queued.
Track window identity, operation identity, dirty local work, and delivery time. Distinguish the user requesting close from the host confirming close. Whether close may be delayed, whether a draft is retained, and who completes cleanup are contract decisions. Worked case: Before the query, R12 outcome is unknown and closing must preserve its identity for reconciliation. After confirmation, the service owns R12; the window can close according to draft policy. A late status belongs to R12, not to any newly opened composer.
Compare the tempting alternative: Starting R13 as a blind retry can duplicate the same user request. Claiming close canceled R12 invents an unsupported guarantee.
Worked reasoning and supplied artifact
// Paper trace / supplied exercise-host contract; no execution claimed.
// Project inputs: W12 holds draft D12; request R12 is submitted; close is requested before queue response. Host contract can query R12 by stable identity but gives no cancel-after-submit promise. The query later confirms Queued.
// Before the query, R12 outcome is unknown and closing must preserve its identity for reconciliation. After confirmation, the service owns R12; the window can close according to draft policy. A late status belongs to R12, not to any newly opened composer.Illustrative example from the proposed WillowScript design. The language and WUIX/WMATH/WDB/WAUDIO/WTMP services are not implemented in the supplied source. This site has no interpreter, VM or native host and does not execute or certify the snippet.

Try the guided change
Reconstruct the supplied worked case first: list its inputs, intermediate decisions and final artifact. Compare each row with the explanation and identify exactly where the rejected alternative fails. Then use the changed inputs in Part IV for independent work.
- Write the supplied inputs and initial state before following the example.
- Reconstruct each intermediate calculation or host decision, then compare with the worked artifact.
- Explain why the contrasting alternative fails before attempting the changed inputs in Part IV.
PART III
Take a breather
Step back after the guided example. Look away from the screen, stretch, or reread your prediction. This is an optional learning pause, not a timer or an assessment gate.
When you return, try to name the lesson’s key idea without copying its wording. If that feels difficult, return to Part II and trace one line rather than restarting the entire lesson.
PART IV
Independent practice
Project context: Support request workflow. Build a small, understandable change around handle an explicit window-close event.
Produce the support utility design with payload contract, readiness precondition, submit-state machine, close decision and reconciliation trace. Include permission denial before submission as a separate case.
What to produce
A small integrated specification with five acceptance cases: normal, denial, duplicate click, uncertain queue outcome and close-before-response.
- State the intended behavior in a sentence before editing.
- Use only source-backed syntax and the host services whose contract you have been given.
- Record a normal case and a boundary or unavailable-resource case.
- Label hand predictions separately from anything actually measured in a supplied toolchain.
Syntax colors are a reading aid, not a compiler. The line you are editing stays uncolored until you move to a different line; capitalization is never changed. Drafts stay on this browser and code is not executed.
Need a hint?
Start with the specific transition in this case: Before the query, R12 outcome is unknown and closing must preserve its identity for reconciliation. After confirmation, the service owns R12; the window can close according to draft policy. A late status belongs to R12, not to any newly opened composer.
Starting R13 as a blind retry can duplicate the same user request. Claiming close canceled R12 invents an unsupported guarantee.
Original learning-path task and reference
Integrate every section in this module into Support request workflow. Submit .ws source, a list of approved host APIs, eight acceptance cases, and a short explanation. Demonstrate Respond to application readiness; Wire a typed callback; Keep event responsibilities small; Handle an explicit window-close event.
import wuix.widget;
import app;
domain Workspace {
const application = Application({
name: "Workspace",
window: { title: "Dashboard", size: [1280, 800] },
events: {
"app.ready": fnc() -> void { console.log("Ready"); }
}
});
}Where the original task needs a host API that is not supplied here, write the contract and predictions. Do not invent a runtime result.
PART V
Self-check
Use this check to notice what to revisit. It does not award a private course grade, block another page or claim to verify compiled code. Every answer has a learning explanation.
You may keep exploring even if you are unsure. Use the hint, compare the trace, and revise your explanation.
PART VI
Recap & small task
Bring the idea back to the mod feature you are building. A useful recap connects the mechanism to a decision you can make in your own code.
- Integrate the support request lifecycle
- Produce the support utility design with payload contract, readiness precondition, submit-state machine, close decision and reconciliation trace. Include permission denial before submission as a separate case.
- Separate source-backed behavior, host requirements and untested predictions.
One small recap task
Write the one question reconciliation must answer for R12.
This marks your personal practice record only. It is not a certification or an official workspace assessment.
