A practical example
A nine-routine fictional spring recital
Start with
examples/eir-dance/spring-recital-roster.csv: 9 fictional routines and 14 dancers (first names with an initial). The opening (R01) is fixed first and the finale (R09) fixed last; four company dancers appear in the opening, one middle routine and the finale.
Get this result
Before optimizing, Checks shows 8 hard conflicts (for example Opening: Sunrise straight into Tap Attack leaves Ava M. and Ben K. 0 routines / 0:30 to change; the rule needs 2 routines and 5:00). After Optimize the result table shows hard conflicts 8 → 0 and Checks says “No hard conflicts”, with some quick changes still flagged for backstage. The run order keeps Opening: Sunrise first and Finale: Together last, runtime 27:35 from 6:00 PM. Downloads: spring-recital-roster-run-order.csv (position, start time, routine, dancers, conflicts), spring-recital-roster-packet.pdf and spring-recital-roster.eirdance.json. Reopening the page restores the show from the browser.

How it works
Buy, download and open
Buy from /store/eir-dance/ and download eir-dance-0.1.1.zip from the checkout page. Extract it and open eir-dance/eirdance.html in Chrome. “Try the synthetic sample” loads a fictional show if you want to explore first.
Prepare the roster
Use one row per routine with a Dancers column (names separated by ;), or one row per routine and dancer with a Dancer column. Recognised columns: ID, Title (or Routine), Class, Style, Duration (m:ss, or minutes like 3.5), Dancers/Dancer, Fixed (first, last, a position number, before intermission, after intermission), Part (1 = before the first intermission), Notes and Position. Comma, semicolon and tab separated files are detected automatically. The “Help & CSV format” tab shows the same rules.
Import
Click “Import roster CSV” (or File ▾ → “Import roster CSV…”), then “Choose a file”, or paste CSV text into the box. A preview lists the routines, dancers and which columns were used. Enter a “Show name” if you like and click the “Import … routines” button. Importing replaces the current routines; Undo (↶) goes back.
Before you buy
- Desktop Google Chrome.
- A roster CSV: one row per routine with columns such as ID, Title, Class, Style, Duration and Dancers (names separated by ;). “Download CSV template” gives you a starting file.
Extract the ZIP and open eirdance.html in desktop Google Chrome. Start with the fictional sample.
Compatibility & limits
Chrome 152 on Linux and synthetic rosters were tested. Real school rosters, other browsers and physical printing are unverified. The bounded optimizer does not guarantee a conflict-free order; review every conflict and exported sheet before a live show.
