    • components/annotation/ - Annotation-specific components
    • components/comment/ - Comment system components
  3. Create patterns folder for complex component patterns

    • components/patterns/ - For compound components like SearchFilters, ModalForms, etc.

Component Development Priorities

Based on the todo lists, the following components should be developed first:

  1. Rich Text Editor - Essential for blog post creation and editing
  2. Work Editor - Needed for creating and editing literary works
  3. Author Management Tools - For creating and editing author profiles
  4. Comment Moderation Interface - For managing user comments
  5. Annotation Management System - For reviewing and managing annotations

Implementation Recommendations

  1. Create Component Templates

    • Develop standardized templates for new components
    • Include prop definitions, stories, and tests
  2. Implement Component Documentation

    • Add JSDoc comments to all components
    • Consider using Storybook for component documentation
  3. Standardize Component Patterns

    • Form components should follow a consistent pattern
    • List/table components should have consistent filtering and pagination
    • Modal/dialog components should have consistent behavior
  4. Accessibility Focus

    • Ensure all components have proper ARIA attributes
    • Add keyboard navigation support
    • Test components with screen readers
  5. Theme Integration

    • Ensure all new components support the seasonal theme system
    • Components should have light/dark mode variants

Next Steps

  1. Create the missing UI components in the ui/ folder
  2. Reorganize existing components into the recommended folder structure
  3. Develop the high-priority feature components
  4. Establish component documentation and standards
