Documentation Guidelines

Current state: Navigation & Layout completed

Context: Navigation is significantly ahead of the roadmap defined later in the project. The following points were not only checked but technically extended through the shell/content/item architecture.

Completed roadmap items

  • Navigation structure: Page hierarchy, routing, and dispatching use clear ownership boundaries.
  • Header and footer: Shell areas remain stable during internal page transitions.
  • Responsive sidebar: Desktop/mobile states, session synchronization, and targeted updates are implemented.
  • Fragmented navigation: `content.php` delivers page content while `index.php` owns the shell; unnecessary document reloads are avoided.
  • Module lifecycle: Frontend modules activate only after content loading and are cleaned up on route changes.

Stabilization and acceptance

The implementation was secured through initial-load, navigation, history, rapid-click, role, CSRF, upload, token, rate-limit, and data-integrity tests. Real issues were found and fixed, including the category schema mismatch, user deletion with article images, and stale diagnostic log entries.

Result: The roadmap items defined later, "Check navigation structure", "Check header/footer behavior", and "Check responsive sidebar", are complete. The technical implementation exceeds the scope documented later in the roadmap.
