WDS HTML to Design Work Summary

Overview

This document summarizes the work done on the HTML to Design side of the WDS v6 conversion, including tools tested and approaches explored.

Key Work Areas

1. Lint Error Resolution

  • Files Fixed: installer.js, dev-mode.js, work-file-template.yaml, workflow.yaml, project-config.template.yaml, project-outline.template.yaml
  • Main Issues Addressed:
    • JavaScript no-undef errors for browser globals (document, window, navigator)
    • YAML parsing errors ("Empty mapping values are forbidden", "Unexpected scalar token")
    • ESLint rule compliance (unicorn/prefer-module, no-unused-vars, etc.)

2. Dev Mode JavaScript Component

  • Location: src/modules/wds/workflows/4-ux-design/interactive-prototypes/templates/components/dev-mode.js
  • Purpose: Developer/feedback mode for copying Object IDs in prototypes
  • Features Implemented:
    • Toggle dev mode with button or Ctrl+E
    • Hold Shift + Click to copy Object IDs
    • Visual highlights (green when Shift held)
    • Tooltip display on hover
    • Success feedback when copied
    • Form field protection (Shift disabled when typing)

3. Work File Template

  • Location: src/modules/wds/workflows/4-ux-design/interactive-prototypes/templates/work-file-template.yaml
  • Purpose: Complete planning document for section-by-section implementation
  • Structure:
    • Metadata and device compatibility
    • Design tokens (Tailwind config)
    • Page requirements and demo data
    • Object ID mapping
    • Section breakdown with acceptance criteria
    • JavaScript requirements
    • Testing checklist

4. YAML Template Fixes

  • project-config.template.yaml: Fixed template variable quoting
  • project-outline.template.yaml: Fixed multi-line string formatting
  • workflow.yaml: Resolved empty document error
  • wds-workflow-status-template.yaml: Fixed boolean/array value quoting

Tools and Approaches Tested

1. ESLint Configuration

  • Tested browser environment detection
  • Global variable declarations (/* global document, globalThis */)
  • Environment checks (typeof globalThis !== 'undefined')
  • Module export patterns for browser compatibility

2. YAML Linting

  • Template variable quoting strategies
  • Multi-line string formatting
  • Empty document handling
  • List syntax validation

3. Interactive Prototype Architecture

  • Component-based approach
  • Event handling patterns
  • Clipboard API integration with fallbacks
  • Visual feedback systems
  • Mobile-first responsive design

Technical Decisions

1. Browser Compatibility

  • Used globalThis for cross-environment compatibility
  • Added fallback methods for clipboard operations
  • Implemented feature detection for APIs

2. Code Style

  • Followed ESLint unicorn rules
  • Used modern JavaScript patterns
  • Maintained consistent formatting
  • Added comprehensive comments

3. Template Structure

  • Used YAML for configuration files
  • Implemented Jinja-like templating
  • Created reusable component patterns
  • Established clear naming conventions

Files Modified

JavaScript Files

  1. installer.js - Removed unused parameter
  2. dev-mode.js - Major refactoring for lint compliance

YAML Files

  1. work-file-template.yaml - Fixed list syntax
  2. workflow.yaml - Fixed empty document issue
  3. project-config.template.yaml - Quoted template variables
  4. project-outline.template.yaml - Fixed multi-line strings
  5. wds-workflow-status-template.yaml - Quoted boolean/array values

Key Learnings

1. Linting in Mixed Environments

  • Browser JavaScript needs special handling in Node-based linters
  • Template variables in YAML require careful quoting
  • Empty documents in YAML can be tricky

2. Interactive Prototype Development

  • Component isolation is crucial for maintainability
  • Event handling needs careful state management
  • Visual feedback improves user experience significantly

3. Template Design

  • Clear structure helps with implementation
  • Comprehensive checklists ensure quality
  • Flexibility in configuration is important

Next Steps (for continuation)

1. Complete Testing

  • Run full lint suite to verify all fixes
  • Test dev-mode functionality in browser
  • Validate YAML template rendering

2. Documentation

  • Add inline code documentation
  • Create usage examples
  • Document template variables

3. Integration

  • Test with full WDS workflow
  • Verify agent compatibility
  • Check BMAD integration points

Technical Debt

  • Some ESLint rules disabled with specific comments
  • YAML templates could benefit from schema validation
  • Dev-mode component could use more testing

Tools Mastered

  • ESLint with browser globals
  • YAML linting with templates
  • JavaScript clipboard API
  • Tailwind CSS integration
  • Component-based architecture

This summary provides a foundation for continuing the HTML to Design work in a new chat session, with clear understanding of what's been accomplished and what remains to be done.
