**io8coder Breakdown for "Angular Clarity Boilerplate":**

**B - Business Understanding:**

* **Goal:** To provide a robust and scalable boilerplate for developing Angular applications using the Clarity Design System.
* **Target Audience:** Angular developers looking to quickly start new projects with a pre-configured, best-practice project structure.
* **Key Features:**
    * Pre-configured Angular project with Clarity Design System.
    * Responsive layout and navigation.
    * Scalable architecture with core and shared modules.
    * Example components and routing.
* **Monetization/Value:** An open-source project that accelerates development, ensures consistency, and reduces setup time.

**M - Model Definition:**

* **Data Model (Example):**
    * `User`:
        * `id` (unique identifier)
        * `username` (string)
        * `email` (string)
    * `Product`:
        * `id` (unique identifier)
        * `name` (string)
        * `description` (string)
        * `price` (number)
* **User Interface (UI) Model:**
    * **Layout:** Main layout with a header, sidebar, and content area.
    * **Navigation:** Vertical navigation in the sidebar with collapsible sections.
    * **Header:** Main header with branding and user profile/actions.
    * **Components:** Examples of Clarity components such as data grids, forms, modals, and alerts.
* **API Model (Example - to be implemented by the developer):**
    * `GET /api/users`: Retrieve a list of users.
    * `GET /api/users/{id}`: Retrieve a single user.
    * `POST /api/users`: Create a new user.
    * `PUT /api/users/{id}`: Update an existing user.
    * `DELETE /api/users/{id}`: Delete a user.

**A - Architecture Design:**

* **Frontend:** Angular, TypeScript, HTML, SCSS.
* **UI Framework:** Clarity Design System.
* **State Management (Optional - to be integrated):** NgRx or other state management libraries.
* **Backend:** This is a frontend boilerplate and is backend-agnostic. It can be connected to any backend (e.g., Node.js, Python, Java) via RESTful or GraphQL APIs.
* **Database:** Not applicable for the frontend boilerplate.
* **Deployment:** Can be deployed to any static web hosting service (e.g., Firebase Hosting, Netlify, Vercel, AWS S3).

**D - Development Plan:**

* **Phase 1: Initial Setup & Customization**
    * Clone the boilerplate repository.
    * Install dependencies.
    * Customize the theme (branding, colors, logos).
    * Configure environment variables.
* **Phase 2: Feature Development**
    * Create new feature modules.
    * Develop components using Clarity components.
    * Implement routing for new pages.
    * Integrate with backend APIs.
    * Add state management if needed.
* **Phase 3: Testing**
    * Write unit tests for components and services.
    * Write end-to-end tests for user flows.
* **Phase 4: Build & Deployment**
    * Build the application for production.
    * Deploy to a hosting service.
    * Set up CI/CD pipelines for automated builds and deployments.

## PROJECT BREAKDOWN - To Do List System App - 2025-10-16 13:50:20

### Project Goal
Develop a fully functional web application (To Do List System App) allowing users to create, view, update, and delete tasks, with a primary focus on core task management capabilities. The system will comprise a distinct frontend (Angular Clarity) and a backend API, containerized for consistent deployment.

### Key Milestones
1.  **Backend API Core Development:** Establish a robust RESTful API capable of handling CRUD operations for tasks, including functionality to mark tasks as complete or incomplete.
    *   **Deliverables:** API endpoints for tasks, initial database schema, basic unit tests for API.
2.  **Frontend UI Development (MVP):** Implement an intuitive user interface using Angular Clarity to interact with the backend API. This includes displaying task lists, adding new tasks, editing existing tasks, and changing task status.
    *   **Deliverables:** Functional Angular Clarity components (task list, task item, add/edit form), API integration services, basic e2e tests.
3.  **Database Integration & Persistence:** Set up and integrate a suitable database solution to store and manage task data persistently for the application.
    *   **Deliverables:** Chosen database instance, ORM/database client configuration, initial migration scripts.
4.  **Containerization & Deployment Strategy:** Prepare the frontend and backend applications for containerized deployment using Docker. Develop a `docker-compose.yml` for orchestrating services (frontend, backend, database) for local development and future production deployment.
    *   **Deliverables:** `Dockerfile.backend`, `Dockerfile.frontend`, `docker-compose.yml`, `nginx.conf` (if required for proxying).
5.  **Comprehensive Testing & Iteration:** Conduct thorough testing across all layers (unit, integration, end-to-end) and refine the application based on testing outcomes and potential user feedback.
    *   **Deliverables:** Test reports, bug fixes, performance optimizations, updated task list and backlog.

### Initial Scope (Minimum Viable Product - MVP)
*   **Task Management:** Users can create new tasks, view a list of all tasks, update task details (e.g., title, description), and delete tasks.
*   **Status Management:** Tasks can be marked as complete or incomplete.
*   **Basic UI:** A clear and responsive user interface for interaction.
*   **Persistence:** All task data will be stored in a database and persist across application restarts.
*   **No Authentication:** The MVP will not include user authentication or authorization. Tasks will be globally managed or implicitly tied to a single user context for simplicity.

### Constraints
*   **Technology Stack:** Adherence to Angular Clarity for the frontend. Backend framework to be determined by io8Architect, but compatible with Docker containerization. Database selection to align with project needs and ease of integration.
*   **Architecture:** Separation of concerns with distinct frontend and backend services, facilitated by Docker Compose for local environment.
*   **Existing Assets:** Building upon the provided Angular Clarity boilerplate for frontend development and adhering to the established `.sureai/` directory structure for all documentation and agent outputs.
*   **Documentation Mode:** All planning and breakdown documents within the `.sureai/` directory must be updated in append-only mode, preserving existing content and structure.
*   **Output Format:** Structured JSON for downstream agents to process updates.
