# Future Plans
|
|
|
|
## App architecture
|
|
|
|
### parse_url mutates too many module-level variables
|
|
`parse_url()` directly assigns to a large number of module-level state variables
|
|
(`section`, `grid_view_state`, `grid_tab`, `current_grid_id`, `grid_draft`,
|
|
`current_panel_idx`, `grid_source_id`, `highlight_cell`, `selected_component_id`).
|
|
This is fragile and hard to reason about.
|
|
|
|
Preferred direction: represent the full UI state as a single immutable state object,
|
|
and have `parse_url()` return a new state value rather than mutating globals:
|
|
```js
|
|
function parse_url(path) {
|
|
return { section, grid_view_state, current_grid_id, ... };
|
|
}
|
|
state = parse_url(location.pathname); render(state);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### render() if/else chain
|
|
The render dispatcher is a long chain of bare `else if` branches. Replace with a
|
|
lookup table:
|
|
```js
|
|
const SECTION_RENDERERS = {
|
|
components: render_components,
|
|
inventory: render_inventory,
|
|
fields: render_fields,
|
|
grids: render_grids,
|
|
templates: render_templates,
|
|
};
|
|
function render() { sync_nav(); SECTION_RENDERERS[section]?.(); }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### app.mjs monolith
|
|
`app.mjs` is large. Consider splitting into per-section modules
|
|
(`views/components.mjs`, `views/grids.mjs`, etc.) that each export their render
|
|
function and own their local state.
|
|
|
|
## Field system
|
|
|
|
### Field rendering integrations
|
|
`render_field_value()` in `app.mjs` is the central place for field display logic.
|
|
Planned extensions:
|
|
- Mouser/Digi-Key part number fields → auto-craft links to product pages
|
|
- More URL-like patterns (without `https://` prefix)
|
|
|
|
### Field types
|
|
Currently all field values are free-text strings. Could benefit from typed fields
|
|
(numeric, enum/dropdown) for better formatting and validation.
|
|
|
|
## PDF / files
|
|
|
|
### PDF page count and multi-page navigation
|
|
Currently only the first page thumbnail is shown. Could show page count and allow
|
|
browsing pages in the lightbox.
|
|
|
|
## Inventory
|
|
|
|
### Inventory URL reflects selected entry
|
|
Similar to how components now reflect `/components/:id` in the URL, inventory
|
|
entries have no URL state — refreshing loses context.
|
|
|
|
## Grids
|
|
|
|
### Grid URL state
|
|
Navigating into a grid viewer updates the URL correctly, but the grid list and
|
|
draft state have no URL representation.
