# Dawarich Maps V2 - Incremental Implementation Guide

## 🎯 Overview

This is a **production-ready, incremental implementation guide** for reimplementing Dawarich's map functionality using **MapLibre GL JS** with a **mobile-first** approach.

### ✨ Key Innovation: Incremental MVP Approach

Each phase delivers a **working, deployable application**. You can:
- ✅ **Deploy after any phase** - Get working software in production early
- ✅ **Get user feedback** - Validate features incrementally
- ✅ **Test continuously** - E2E tests catch regressions at each step
- ✅ **Rollback safely** - Revert to any previous working phase

## 🏗️ Architecture Principles

### 1. Frontend-Only Implementation
- **No backend changes** - Uses existing API endpoints
- Client-side GeoJSON transformation
- ApiClient wrapper for all API calls

### 2. Rails & Stimulus Best Practices
- **Stimulus values** for configuration only (NOT large datasets)
- AJAX data fetching after page load
- Proper cleanup in `disconnect()`
- Turbo Drive compatibility
- Outlets for controller communication

### 3. Mobile-First Design
- Touch-optimized UI components
- Bottom sheet pattern for mobile
- Progressive enhancement for desktop
- Gesture support (swipe, pinch, long press)

### 4. Performance Optimized
- Lazy loading for heavy components
- Viewport-based data loading
- Progressive loading with feedback
- Memory leak prevention
- Service worker for offline support

# Understand the incremental approach
cat PHASES_OVERVIEW.md

# See all phases at a glance
cat PHASES_SUMMARY.md
```

### 2. Start with Phase 1 MVP

```bash
# Week 1: Implement minimal viable map
cat PHASE_1_MVP.md

# Create files as specified in guide
# Run E2E tests: npx playwright test e2e/v2/phase-1-mvp.spec.ts
# Deploy to staging
# Get user feedback
```

### 3. Continue Incrementally
