# ThrillWiki Laravel Project - Master Documentation

**Last Updated**: June 22, 2025
**Project Status**: Active Development with Screen-Agnostic Design Integration
**Version**: Laravel 11 with Custom Development Acceleration Tools

## ⚠️ CRITICAL PROJECT TERMINOLOGY

### IMPORTANT: Entity Name Change
**Date**: June 13, 2025
**Change**: "Company" entity has been permanently changed to "Operator"

**Context**: The entity for theme park operating companies and ride manufacturers was initially referred to as "Company". This has been permanently changed to "Operator" to better reflect the business domain.

**What This Means**:
- **All future development** must use "Operator" (not "Company")
- **Generator commands** use "Operator" model name
- **Database relationships** reference "operators" table
- **Documentation** consistently uses "Operator" terminology

**Generator Commands**:
```bash
# CORRECT - Use these commands
php artisan make:thrillwiki-model Operator --migration --factory --with-relationships --cached --api-resource --with-tests
php artisan make:thrillwiki-crud Operator --api --with-tests

# INCORRECT - Do NOT use these
php artisan make:thrillwiki-model Company [...]
php artisan make:thrillwiki-crud Company [...]
```

**Relationship Patterns**:
- **Operator**: parks (hasMany), manufactured_rides (hasMany), designed_rides (hasMany)
- **Park**: operator (belongsTo)
- **Ride**: manufacturer (belongsTo to Operator), designer (belongsTo to Designer)

**Smart Trait Assignments**:
- **HasLocation**: Park, **Operator**, ParkArea models
- **HasSlugHistory**: Park, Ride, **Operator**, Designer models

**Status**: ✅ **PERMANENT CHANGE - FULLY IMPLEMENTED**

**Reference**: See [`memory-bank/projectNotes.md`](memory-bank/projectNotes.md) for complete details.

## 🎯 Project Overview

ThrillWiki is a comprehensive Laravel/Livewire application that replicates and enhances a Django-based theme park database system. The project features advanced custom development generators that provide **massive development acceleration** through automated code generation with **screen-agnostic design** as a core principle.

## 🚀 **CRITICAL FEATURE: ThrillWiki Custom Generator Suite**

   ```

2. **Add CRUD Interface**: Use CRUD command for complete admin interface
   ```bash
   php artisan make:thrillwiki-crud ModelName --migration --api --with-tests
   ```

3. **Create Components**: Use Livewire command for custom frontend components
   ```bash
   php artisan make:thrillwiki-livewire ComponentName --reusable --cached --with-tests
   ```

4. **Test Everything**: All generators include comprehensive test suites
   ```bash
   php artisan test --filter ModelNameTest
   ```

5. **Customize**: Extend generated code for specific requirements with screen-agnostic design
