- `php artisan make:thrillwiki-livewire ParkFormComponent --with-tests`

## Overview

Successfully generated and integrated two critical Livewire components that complete the Park CRUD system. These components provide the missing reactive functionality for park listing and form management, bringing the Park system to 100% completion with full Django parity.

## Component 1: ParkListComponent

### Features Implemented

#### **Advanced Filtering & Search**
- **Text Search**: Name and description search with real-time filtering

#### **Technical Implementation**
```php
// Key Properties
public string $search = '';
public string $status = '';
public string $sort = 'name';
public string $direction = 'asc';
public ?string $operator = null;
public string $viewMode = 'grid';

// Query String Persistence
protected $queryString = [
    'search' => ['except' => ''],
    'status' => ['except' => ''],
    'sort' => ['except' => 'name'],
    'direction' => ['except' => 'asc'],
    'operator' => ['except' => ''],
    'viewMode' => ['except' => 'grid'],
];
```

## Component 2: ParkFormComponent

### File Information

'name' => ['required', 'string', 'min:2', 'max:255', $unique],
'description' => ['nullable', 'string'],
'status' => ['required', new Enum(ParkStatus::class)],
'opening_date' => ['nullable', 'date'],
'closing_date' => ['nullable', 'date', 'after:opening_date'],
'operating_season' => ['nullable', 'string', 'max:255'],
'size_acres' => ['nullable', 'numeric', 'min:0', 'max:999999.99'],
'website' => ['nullable', 'url', 'max:255'],
'operator_id' => ['nullable', 'exists:operators,id'],
```

#### **Form Fields Supported**
- **Name**: Required text input with uniqueness validation
- **Description**: Optional textarea for park details

- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive validation error display
- **Redirect Logic**: Smart redirection to park detail page after save
- **Mobile Optimization**: Touch-friendly form inputs

## Integration Points

### 1. View Integration
- **Index View**: Uses `<livewire:park-list-component />` for park listing
- **Create View**: Uses `<livewire:park-form-component />` for new parks
- **Edit View**: Uses `<livewire:park-form-component :park="$park" />` for editing

### 2. Route Integration
- **Slug-based Routing**: Compatible with existing slug-based park URLs
- **Authentication**: Respects existing auth middleware on create/edit routes
- **RESTful Structure**: Maintains Laravel resource route conventions

### 3. Model Integration
- **Park Model**: Full integration with production-ready 329-line Park model
- **Operator Model**: Relationship management for park operators
- **ParkStatus Enum**: Type-safe status management
