# Phase 1: Setup & Foundation - Discussion Document
|
|
|
|
## Vision and Goals
|
|
|
|
The vision for Phase 1: Setup & Foundation is to establish a solid technical foundation for the weekly todo list application that will enable all subsequent features. The goal is to create a functional prototype that demonstrates the core capabilities of the application while establishing the necessary infrastructure.
|
|
|
|
### User Envisioned Implementation
|
|
|
|
Based on the roadmap and requirements, the user envisions implementing the following core functionalities during Phase 1:
|
|
|
|
1. **Project Initialization**: Setting up the development environment with appropriate tooling and frameworks
|
|
2. **Basic Layout Structure**: Creating a weekly calendar view that displays tasks organized by day
|
|
3. **Task Management Functions**: Implementing essential CRUD operations for tasks (create, read, update, delete)
|
|
4. **User Interface**: Establishing a clean, intuitive interface for viewing and interacting with tasks
|
|
5. **Data Persistence**: Implementing local storage capabilities to maintain task data between sessions
|
|
6. **Navigation System**: Building the ability to navigate between different weeks and views
|
|
|
|
### Core Implementation Goals
|
|
|
|
The user wants to achieve these specific capabilities in Phase 1:
|
|
|
|
1. **Weekly Calendar Display**: A grid-based layout showing a 7-day view with tasks properly organized by day
|
|
2. **Task Creation**: Ability to add new tasks by clicking on specific days in the weekly view
|
|
3. **Task Editing**: Functionality to modify task details including title, date, and description
|
|
4. **Task Deletion**: Ability to remove unwanted tasks from the weekly view
|
|
5. **Task Completion**: Visual indicators and functionality to mark tasks as complete/incomplete
|
|
6. **Week Navigation**: Previous/next buttons to move between weeks
|
|
7. **View Switching**: Ability to toggle between day and week views
|
|
8. **Drag-and-Drop**: Reorganization of tasks between days using drag-and-drop interactions
|
|
9. **Local Persistence**: Tasks saved in browser's local storage to persist between sessions
|
|
|
|
### Success Criteria
|
|
|
|
The user has defined clear success criteria that must be met by the end of Phase 1:
|
|
|
|
1. Users can view a weekly calendar grid showing tasks organized by day
|
|
2. Users can add new tasks by clicking on specific days in the weekly view
|
|
3. Users can edit task details including title, date, and description
|
|
4. Users can delete tasks from the weekly view
|
|
5. Users can mark tasks as complete or incomplete with visual indicators
|
|
6. Users can navigate between weeks using previous/next buttons
|
|
7. Users can switch between day and week views to see different perspectives
|
|
8. Users can drag and drop tasks between days to reorganize them
|
|
9. User's tasks persist between browser sessions using local storage
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Approach
|
|
|
|
### Technical Stack Selection
|
|
|
|
The user wants to establish a modern, efficient tech stack that will scale well for future phases. Based on the requirements, they likely favor:
|
|
- Modern JavaScript/TypeScript for core logic
|
|
- React/Vue/Angular for UI components
|
|
- CSS frameworks for styling (likely Tailwind or similar)
|
|
- Local storage APIs for data persistence
|
|
- Responsive design principles for compatibility
|
|
|
|
### Key Design Principles
|
|
|
|
The user's vision includes these fundamental design principles:
|
|
- Clean, minimalist interface similar to popular tools like TeuxDeux
|
|
- Focus on speed and efficiency in task management
|
|
- Intuitive workflow for adding and editing tasks
|
|
- Clear visual distinction between tasks and calendar events
|
|
- Responsive design that works on desktop and tablet
|
|
|
|
## User Expectations and Requirements
|
|
|
|
### Core Requirements (as defined in ROADMAP.md)
|
|
|
|
1. **CORE-01**: User can view tasks and events in a weekly calendar view
|
|
2. **CORE-02**: User can add tasks to specific days within the weekly view
|
|
3. **CORE-03**: User can edit existing tasks (change title, date, description)
|
|
4. **CORE-04**: User can delete tasks from the weekly view
|
|
5. **CORE-05**: User can mark tasks as complete/incomplete
|
|
6. **CORE-06**: User can navigate between weeks using previous/next buttons
|
|
7. **CORE-07**: User can switch between day and week views
|
|
8. **CORE-08**: User can drag and drop tasks between days to reorganize them
|
|
9. **CORE-09**: User can persist tasks locally in the browser
|
|
|
|
### Non-Functional Requirements
|
|
|
|
The user emphasizes:
|
|
- Performance: Interface should be responsive and fast
|
|
- Compatibility: Works well on desktop and tablet
|
|
- Security: Proper handling of user data
|
|
- Simplicity: Intuitive workflow without unnecessary complexity
|
|
|
|
## Risks and Mitigation Strategies
|
|
|
|
### Technical Risks
|
|
|
|
1. **Complexity of Drag-and-Drop Implementation**: May require third-party libraries or significant custom development
|
|
2. **State Management**: Managing state across multiple components and views
|
|
3. **Responsive Design**: Ensuring consistent functionality across devices
|
|
4. **Data Persistence**: Handling edge cases with local storage
|
|
|
|
### Mitigation Approaches
|
|
|
|
- Evaluate lightweight drag-and-drop solutions early
|
|
- Implement a robust state management solution from the start
|
|
- Use responsive design frameworks and test extensively
|
|
- Implement proper error handling for storage operations
|
|
|
|
## Success Metrics
|
|
|
|
By the end of Phase 1, the application should demonstrate:
|
|
1. Stable weekly calendar view with proper task organization
|
|
2. Functional task creation, editing, and deletion
|
|
3. Intuitive navigation between weeks and views
|
|
4. Reliable data persistence across sessions
|
|
5. Clean, user-friendly interface that aligns with design goals
|
|
|
|
## Next Steps
|
|
|
|
The immediate next steps involve:
|
|
1. Setting up the development environment and project structure
|
|
2. Implementing the basic weekly calendar view
|
|
3. Building core task management functionality
|
|
4. Integrating local storage for data persistence
|
|
5. Creating a responsive UI that works across devices |
