# ThrillWiki Frontend Redesign - Active Context
|
|
|
|
## Project Overview
|
|
Complete frontend overhaul of ThrillWiki Django project using HTMX and Alpine.js to create modern, beautiful, and highly functional templates that implement all model-related functionality.
|
|
|
|
## Current Phase: Design System Creation (Phase 3)
|
|
|
|
### Current Focus
|
|
- Establish consistent color palette and typography system
|
|
- Create reusable component patterns for common UI elements
|
|
- Design responsive layouts for all device sizes
|
|
- Implement modern CSS techniques (Grid, Flexbox, custom properties)
|
|
|
|
### Progress Status
|
|
- ✅ Phase 1: Project Analysis - COMPLETED
|
|
- Analyzed existing Django models and relationships
|
|
- Reviewed current HTMX/Alpine.js implementation patterns
|
|
- Documented current template structure and functionality
|
|
- Identified pain points and improvement opportunities
|
|
|
|
- ✅ Phase 2: Research and Planning - COMPLETED
|
|
- ✅ Research modern UI/UX patterns using context7 MCP server
|
|
- ✅ Study HTMX best practices and advanced techniques via context7
|
|
- ✅ Investigate Alpine.js optimization strategies through context7
|
|
- ✅ Plan new template architecture based on model relationships
|
|
|
|
- 🔄 Phase 3: Design System Creation - IN PROGRESS
|
|
- ⏳ Establish consistent color palette and typography system
|
|
- ⏳ Create reusable component patterns for common UI elements
|
|
- ⏳ Design responsive layouts for all device sizes
|
|
- ⏳ Implement modern CSS techniques (Grid, Flexbox, custom properties)
|
|
|
|
### Next Steps
|
|
1. Create design tokens and color system
|
|
2. Establish typography scale and component library
|
|
3. Design responsive breakpoint strategy
|
|
4. Begin template implementation
|
|
|
|
### Key Decisions Made
|
|
- **Technology Stack**: Continue with HTMX + Alpine.js + Tailwind CSS
|
|
- **Design Philosophy**: Function over form, progressive enhancement
|
|
- **Architecture**: Component-based design system with reusable patterns
|
|
- **Performance Targets**: Core Web Vitals compliance
|
|
- **Accessibility**: WCAG 2.1 AA compliance
|
|
|
|
### Research Findings Summary
|
|
- **HTMX Best Practices**: Focus on progressive enhancement, efficient request patterns, and proper error handling
|
|
- **Alpine.js Optimization**: Component architecture, memory management, and performance monitoring
|
|
- **Modern UI Patterns**: Mobile-first design, micro-interactions, and accessibility-first approach
|
|
|
|
### Current Challenges
|
|
- Balancing modern aesthetics with existing Django template structure
|
|
- Ensuring backward compatibility while implementing new patterns
|
|
- Maintaining performance while adding enhanced functionality
|
|
|
|
### Success Metrics
|
|
- User engagement improvements
|
|
- Core Web Vitals score improvements
|
|
- Accessibility compliance scores
|
|
- Development velocity increases
|
|
- User satisfaction feedback
