First, I suppose, the good news:
Email filtering, such as it is, is done. My goal with the item is complete! My DataTable component has expanded and I now have a ListView component that takes a bunch of stuff, and the Archive page at /emails exists solely as a wrapper around the ListView. (Plus I added filtering, the whole point of the exercise — and the most trivial one.) There are a couple tiny things I need to do before merging, like better type information and fixing where the dropdown menu appears, but it is Done.
The problem, of course, lies in an email from Anne I received in response to last week's weeknote:
This looks nice, but it's different than the current look and feel of the other pages, right? How do you think about rolling this out and not having it be consistent?
