    Notes for Future Developers

    Key Design Decisions

  • Firebase Project: Used existing dominics-tasks project
  • Authentication: Email whitelist approach with role-based access
  • Data Structure: NoSQL document structure for flexibility
  • Deployment: Cloudflare Pages for global edge hosting
  • Styling: Tailwind CSS for rapid, responsive development
  • Privacy: Parent Chat completely hidden from Dominic via role checks

    • Technical Constraints

  • Single Firebase Project: Dedicated to this application
  • Client-Side Only: No server-side code, all logic in React
  • Real-Time Sync: Leveraging Firestore's real-time listeners
  • Security: All security enforced via Firebase Security Rules

    • Recent Refactoring - Culture Rebrand

    The codebase has been updated to remove gaming terminology:

    Terminology Changes:

  • XP → EP (Energy Points) - Better reflects productive energy
  • First Blood → First Step - More encouraging first achievement
  • Terror → Momentum Builder - Positive momentum terminology
  • Early Bird time: 8 AM → 10 AM - More realistic for daily routine

    • Implementation:

  • All type definitions updated in src/types/index.ts
  • All utility constants updated in src/utils/index.ts
  • Achievement display updated in src/pages/Achievements.tsx
  • Statistics display updated in src/pages/History.tsx
  • Achievements config: FIRST_BLOOD → FIRST_STEP, TERROR → MOMENTUM_BUILDER

    • New Features - Task Comments & Google Drive

    Task Comments:

  • Dedicated page at /task-comment/:taskId
  • Shows full task context (title, type, priority, status)
  • Chat interface for task-specific discussions
  • Only accessible by parent accounts
  • Real-time synchronization via Firestore

    • Google Drive Integration:

  • Service layer in src/services/googleDrive.ts
  • File picker integration with Google Drive API

  • Cloud icon button added to Parent Chat and Task Comments

    • Future Improvements
