Mizan is an Application Framework Interface (AFI) with five
independent packages:
packages/
mizan-ast/ Language layer (source → KDL schema)
mizan-schema/ IR layer (KDL schema definition)
mizan-rpc/ Protocol layer (client gen + server adapters)
adapters/django/ ← was django/
generator/ ← was react/src/generator/
mizan-csr/ State layer (client state engine)
adapters/react/ ← was react/
mizan-ssr/ Rendering layer (server-side rendering)
Each package is independent. The adapter directories contain the
framework-specific implementations. Stub packages (ast, schema, ssr)
establish the structure for future work.
264 Django tests + 33 React tests pass from new locations.

Root directory now contains only the two core packages (django/, react/),
examples/, and top-level docs. All e2e/integration test infrastructure
lives in examples/django-react-site/.

Rename the package from djarea to mizan across the entire codebase —
Python package, React library, generators, tests, and examples. Fix
JSX/hook casing (MizanProvider, useMizan, etc.) that broke when the
original PascalCase names were lowercased during the rename.

Test infrastructure:
- Django standalone test runner (pytest-django, test settings, EmailUser model)
- React unit tests via Vitest with jsdom, jest compat layer, path aliases
- Playwright E2E tests using generated hooks in a real Chromium browser
- Docker Compose test backend (Django + Redis) for integration testing
- Desktop integration test app (PyWebView + Django + uvicorn)
- Makefile with test/test-django/test-react/test-integration targets
Library bugs found and fixed:
- hasJWT truthiness: undefined !== null was true, skipping session init
- process.env crash: CSR client referenced process.env in non-Node browsers
- baseUrl not forwarded: DjareaProvider didn't pass baseUrl to CSR client
- Relative URL handling: new URL() failed with relative base paths
- call() race condition: HTTP requests fired before CSRF cookie was set
- Session init await: added sessionRef promise so call() waits for session
- path_prefix on schema export: both export commands failed with URL reverse
- NullBooleanField removed: referenced field doesn't exist in Django 5.0+
- lru_cache on JWT settings: get_settings() now cached as intended
- Channel message routing: broadcasts now include channel name and params
- httpFunctionCall: fixed URL and request body format
Generator fixes:
- Removed 1,100 lines of REST/OpenAPI client generation (not part of Djarea)
- Generator now works for djarea-only projects without django-ninja REST APIs
- Generated DjangoContext now includes ChannelProvider when channels exist
- Fixed env var passthrough for schema export commands
- Deduplicated fetch logic into single runDjangoCommand helper
Test quality:
- Fixed 33 tautological Django tests with real assertions
- Found hidden bug: benchmark functions were never registered
- Found hidden bug: unicode lookalike test used plain ASCII
- Deleted worthless React unit tests (duplicates, shape checks, Zod-tests-Zod)
- Replaced jsdom integration tests with Playwright browser tests
Example apps:
- example/: Integration test backend with 33 server functions, 5 forms,
4 channels covering auth variations, contexts, class-based ServerFunction,
error codes, DjareaFormMixin, formsets, and JWT
- desktop/: PyWebView desktop app with file system access, SQLite CRUD,
system introspection, and 39 real HTTP integration tests
