Drop a file (or pass ?file=<url>&path=<object>), browse the tree lazily,
see a dataset's type, shape, max shape and attributes, and page through
its values as 50x12 hyperslab windows (leading dims of 3-D+ data held
at chosen indices). build.sh produces pkg/ (not committed) with
wasm-bindgen --target web and checks the CLI matches the crate version.
test/run.sh builds it and runs test.mjs under Node against the h5py/
netCDF4 fixture (250 checks: every dataset whole and as a strided
hyperslab, listings, attributes, error paths, the page's DOM-free
helpers), then browser.sh renders the page in headless Chromium for
eight objects and checks the DOM. The fixture gains LZ4 (read) and Zstd
(refused: links C) datasets and a compound attribute (value null plus
its type). ci-test.sh runs it when node and wasm-bindgen exist; the CI
container has neither, so CI relies on the native h5py_interop test.

open(bytes) -> H5File with kind/list/info/attrs/attrErrors/read/
readHyperslab. Numeric data comes back in the typed array of the
stored width (Int16Array for i16, BigInt64Array for i64, Float32Array
for f32/f16, ...), strings and enum names as string arrays, array
datatypes flattened with their dims appended to the shape. Compound,
reference, opaque and VL-sequence datasets are refused with an error
naming the type; nothing is returned as reinterpreted bytes.
The logic is in a plain-Rust core module, tested natively: unit tests,
and h5py_interop, which compares every dataset, hyperslab, listing and
attribute of an h5py- and a netCDF4-written file with what libhdf5
reads back (generator shared with the Node test of the built package).
No mmap, no threads; lz4 is on, zstd/szip (C) are not. A
wasm-release profile (opt-level s, LTO) serves the browser build.
ci-test.sh lints the crate for wasm32 and checks it builds no C.
