Description
Context
onRender currently owns setup, interaction handlers, and DOM synchronization.
Recommendation
Extract pure utility helpers (e.g., selector builders, date formatting helpers, type/color maps) from onRender to improve readability and maintainability.
Acceptance criteria
- Helper functions are side-effect free where possible
- Main render function becomes shorter and easier to scan
- No functional regression

Research direction
Start by locating onRender and reviewing its setup, interaction handlers, and DOM synchronization responsibilities. Identify pure selector, date-formatting, and type/color-map helpers that can be separated without changing behavior. Done means the render function is shorter and easier to scan, helpers are side-effect free where possible, and there is no functional regression.
