sdarbinyan d03ef2db50 docs: final project closeout - classify TODO, backend spec, status
Classified every TODO.md item into one of DONE/BACKEND/PRODUCT
DECISION/FUTURE VERSION/BUG, verified against source, not against
prior docs:

- BACKEND items (bootstrap content, builder draft/publish, 6 admin
  CRUD domains, media pipeline) confirmed already covered by
  BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md; appended a mapping appendix rather than
  duplicating raw bullets. Fixed 22 stale internal BACKEND_API.md
  cross-references left over from before that file was archived.
- PRODUCT DECISION items (dark mode, brand-color WCAG contrast,
  stars.component token gap, footer Contacts content, advanced
  analytics, payment providers) moved to new docs/PRODUCT_BACKLOG.md.
- FUTURE VERSION items (Angular 22, bundle splitting, cart-modal
  composition cleanup, hero-spacing investigation) moved to new
  docs/FUTURE_FEATURES.md.
- BUG: rewrote docs/KNOWN-ISSUES.md down to the one real, verified,
  currently-reproducible frontend bug (Ed25519 admin-auth error codes
  session-expired/invalid-signature are unreachable -
  toAuthErrorShape() never reads a body error code, only maps HTTP
  status, and no status ever produces those two codes - confirmed by
  reading auth.service.ts + auth-error.model.ts). Condensed the
  "Fixed" history instead of carrying full verbose repro text forward.
- DONE items removed outright (dead-code deletion, dashboard false
  positive, RC-02 fixes, stale "dynamic-renderer unwired"/"178 missing
  keys" claims already disproven by source).

docs/TODO.md rewritten to the exact "no blockers" template - nothing
left qualifies as a release blocker.

New docs/PROJECT_STATUS.md: honest per-area status (frontend/backend/
docs/auth/builder/storefront/admin), known limitations, and explicit
production/backend/demo readiness calls - including correcting an
initial draft's unpushed-commit count (53, not 10, per git log
origin/B2B..HEAD).

New docs/NEXT_PHASE.md: work that can only start once a real backend
exists (gateway swap-in, mock removal, dormant-auth activation, role
enforcement, integration/E2E tests, perf profiling, monitoring,
maintenance-mode UI).

docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md (the stated entry point) updated to link the new
doc set and stop pointing at the now-archived BACKEND_API.md/AUTH.md.
docs/FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md's "Known open items" replaced with pointers
to the new category-split docs instead of a duplicated mixed list.

Not swept: a handful of low-traffic docs (architecture ADRs,
FRONTEND.md, EDITOR.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, PROJECT-STRUCTURE.md,
StaticPages.md, ADMIN.md) still reference the old BACKEND_API.md/
AUTH.md filenames - noted as a known gap in PROJECT_STATUS.md rather
than touched blindly, since they're historical-context docs, not the
navigation entry point.

Marketplace Platform — Documentation Index

This is the entry point. Read this first — it links to everything else and tells you what's actually true right now versus what's historical.

What this is

A configuration-driven, multi-tenant SaaS marketplace platform (Angular 21.1, standalone components). One frontend codebase serves unlimited tenants ("marketplaces"). Tenant identity, theme, navigation, page/section/widget composition, and static content all resolve from a per-tenant bootstrap.json fetched at runtime — no tenant-specific code paths exist in the frontend. New tenants are onboarded by domain + config + backend data, never by forking the frontend.

Every tenant has three surfaces on this one codebase:

  • Website — the public storefront (catalog, product pages, cart, static pages).
  • Builder (Project Editor, /edit/**) — an in-app editor that edits the tenant's BootstrapConfig.
  • Backoffice (Admin, /:lang/backoffice/**) — the admin area: products, categories (live-wired to a real gateway), orders, transactions, users, monitoring, analytics, media.

System overview

  • Architecture: Component (container) → Facade → Domain Service → Repository/Provider (DI token, swappable mock↔API) → Mock | API. Enforced by npm run arch:check (import boundaries + circular deps), not just convention. Full detail: ARCHITECTURE.md, governance docs at docs/architecture/foundation/** (10 ADRs + 9 standards docs).
  • State: Signals-based facades everywhere, no NgRx (ADR-007).
  • Rendering: Bootstrap JSON → Section Engine → Page Renderer → Widget Host → registered widget component (ADR-005). 100% lazy-loaded routes.
  • Theming: CSS custom properties per tenant, 3 theme stylesheets, never hardcoded hex in a component (ADR-008). Design system spec: DESIGN.md (root of repo).
  • i18n: 3 locales (en/ru/hy), compile-time-enforced key parity across locale files.
  • Backend: mostly PLANNED (mock gateways behind swappable provider tokens) — see BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md, the single canonical backend spec (endpoints, DTOs, auth, security, error model, uploads, migration guide, checklist). Categories is the one domain fully wired to a real HTTP gateway; everything else is local/mock.

Doc index (living documents)

Read these directly — they're the current source of truth, not one-off reports:

Doc What it covers
ARCHITECTURE.md Layered architecture, container/facade/service pattern, bootstrap/theme/widget engines, links to the enforced ADRs
BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md Canonical backend spec — every endpoint, DTO, CRUD contract, auth, security, error model, uploads, migration guide, checklist
AUTHENTICATION.md Standalone auth deep-dive (also inlined in BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md §4)
ERROR_CONTRACT.md Standalone error-contract deep-dive (also inlined in BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md §6)
MAINTENANCE_MODE.md Global/tenant/module maintenance-mode contract
FRONTEND.md App structure, routing, i18n, theming, state management, dynamic rendering
EDITOR.md The Project Editor: every section, save/publish/draft/reset model
StaticPages.md The Static Pages CMS module (the thing that actually serves About/Contacts/etc. today)
PROJECT-STRUCTURE.md Folder-by-folder tour of src/app/** with a worked feature-add example
ADMIN.md Admin backoffice: routing, architecture, data sources
PROJECT_STATUS.md Final Release Candidate status — frontend/backend/docs/auth/builder/storefront/admin readiness, honest limitations
FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md Status snapshot refreshed from recent commits — what shipped, what's open
KNOWN-ISSUES.md Real, reproducible, currently-open frontend bugs only
PRODUCT_BACKLOG.md Items needing a client/business decision (dark mode, brand colors, page content, etc.)
FUTURE_FEATURES.md Nice-to-have, non-blocking future work (Angular 22, bundle splitting, etc.)
NEXT_PHASE.md What happens after backend integration lands
TODO.md Release blockers only — currently empty
ANGULAR22_PLAN.md Angular 22 upgrade feasibility (research only, not yet executed)
SALES-GUIDE.md Plain-language guide for the sales team — what to demo, what's not live yet
../DESIGN.md Visual design system: colors, typography, elevation, component specs
../PRODUCT.md Product positioning, users, brand personality, anti-references
../CHANGELOG.md Keep-a-Changelog-format history of shipped features
docs/architecture/foundation/** Enforced ADRs (ADR-001…ADR-010) and standards docs — governance, read directly
docs/context/** Barry Cache's own source-backed memory system — infrastructure, not project documentation, do not edit by hand
docs/archive/** Superseded docs, kept for history only — do not implement against these

One topic, one place: routing lives in FRONTEND.md, not repeated here. Backend contract lives in BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md, not repeated in ADMIN.md. Design tokens live in DESIGN.md, not repeated elsewhere.

What's still open

TODO.md — release blockers only. PRODUCT_BACKLOG.md and FUTURE_FEATURES.md hold everything else that isn't a blocker.

Historical reports

19 one-off audit/sprint/review reports were archived, then deleted once every open finding worth keeping was confirmed merged into KNOWN-ISSUES.md/FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md/TODO.md. Full original text recoverable via git log --diff-filter=D -- docs/archive if needed.

How to run it

npm install
npm run start           # ng serve
npm run start:dexar      # ng serve --configuration=development --port 4200
npm run build            # ng build
npm run build:dexar      # ng build --configuration=production
npm run arch:check       # boundary + circular-dependency checks

Barry Cache (repo memory, optional but recommended before/after non-trivial work):

npm run barry -- resume --task "<task>"
npm run barry -- validate

See root CLAUDE.md for the full Barry Cache workflow and memory policy.

Current status

  • Frontend: ~96% of planned UI built. Storefront/Builder/Backoffice all have working UI; several polish/audit passes complete (see below).
  • Backend: in progress — mostly PLANNED/mock gateways, no confirmed live backend contract beyond auth/session and storefront reads. Categories is the one domain fully wired to a real gateway.
  • Storefront polish, performance audit, WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility audit, release-candidate walkthrough: all done — see FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md for the summary of each.
  • Angular 22 upgrade: not started, feasibility researched — see ANGULAR22_PLAN.md (verdict: safe, ~2-3.5 days, 2 tooling blockers to clear first).
  • Documentation: consolidated (this pass) — 19 one-off reports archived, 2 files renamed for clarity (PROJECT.mdPROJECT_INDEX.md, backend/BACKEND-INTEGRATION.mdBACKEND_API.md), 1 duplicate deleted (RELEASE-NOTES.md merged into CHANGELOG.md).
  • First client demo: upcoming — blocked on nothing documentation can fix; see KNOWN-ISSUES.md for what's still open, starting with the dead-routes finding at the top of this document.

Draft/publish for the Project Editor is still frontend-only (localStorage), no backend persistence — the single largest backend gap, see BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md §1 (Bootstrap: Draft vs Published) and §8 (Real Backend Implementation Guide).
