# Catalog UX, Navigation and Loading Strategies - Sprint 16
|
|
|
|
## Scope
|
|
|
|
Sprint 16 improves catalog UX without introducing marketplace-specific logic.
|
|
|
|
Areas covered:
|
|
- empty category behavior
|
|
- root navigation consistency
|
|
- multiple loading strategies
|
|
- grid selector completion
|
|
- mobile catalog behavior
|
|
- future slug routing preparation
|
|
- reusable catalog states
|
|
- centralized feature flags
|
|
- project skills documentation
|
|
|
|
## Empty Category Behavior
|
|
|
|
Catalog now distinguishes three category outcomes:
|
|
- subcategories exist: show category browser
|
|
- products exist: show product list
|
|
- neither exist: show dedicated catalog empty state
|
|
|
|
Empty category state belongs to catalog surface, not product grid.
|
|
|
|
## Root Navigation
|
|
|
|
`All Categories` always routes to `/catalog` and shows category browser.
|
|
|
|
Continue-browsing restoration no longer hijacks this root navigation path.
|
|
|
|
## Loading Strategies
|
|
|
|
Configured via `catalog.loadingStrategy`:
|
|
- `pagination`
|
|
- `loadMore`
|
|
- `infiniteScroll`
|
|
|
|
Single product list component remains source of truth. Strategy changes only affect controls and page-windowing.
|
|
|
|
## Grid System
|
|
|
|
Supported layouts:
|
|
- `grid-2`
|
|
- `grid-3`
|
|
- `grid-4`
|
|
- `list`
|
|
- `compact`
|
|
|
|
User preference persists locally. Bootstrap default still seeds first render.
|
|
|
|
Legacy layout aliases normalize to new modes for backward compatibility.
|
|
|
|
## Mobile Behavior
|
|
|
|
Mobile catalog uses:
|
|
- filter drawer
|
|
- sort popup sheet
|
|
- grid popup sheet
|
|
|
|
Inline filter density is avoided.
|
|
|
|
## Breadcrumb and Slug Preparation
|
|
|
|
Current URLs remain ID-based.
|
|
|
|
Routing layer now tolerates future slug-like category tokens by resolving them to internal IDs without changing current public contract.
|
|
|
|
## Centralized Features
|
|
|
|
`bootstrap.features` is new central toggle surface for UI features such as:
|
|
- wishlist
|
|
- compare
|
|
- reviews
|
|
- comments
|
|
- questions
|
|
- recommendations
|
|
- recentlyViewed
|
|
- searchHistory
|
|
- recentlySearched
|
|
- ratings
|
|
- share
|
|
- brands
|
|
- manufacturers
|
|
- availability
|
|
- discounts
|
|
- badges
|
|
|
|
Feature resolver falls back to older config surfaces to preserve behavior.
|
|
|
|
## Project Skills
|
|
|
|
Added repo skills:
|
|
- `.agents/skills/marketplace-architecture/SKILL.md`
|
|
- `.agents/skills/ui-standards/SKILL.md`
|
|
- `.agents/skills/backend-contract/SKILL.md`
|
|
|
|
## Future Work
|
|
|
|
- true backend paging for load-more/infinite strategies
|
|
- offline-aware cached catalog data
|
|
- explicit slug field on categories
|
|
- admin editing surface for centralized feature toggles
