# Product Requirements Document (PRD) - INIT (Codebase Documentation)
## 1. Goal
The primary goal of this task is to perform a comprehensive scan of the Breedr codebase and create essential developer-focused documentation (`.md` files). This documentation will streamline the onboarding of new agents or developers and simplify the process of implementing new features and fixing bugs.
## 2. Target Audience
- AI Agents performing code modifications.
- Human developers contributing to the project.
## 3. Scope of Documentation
### 3.1 DEVELOPMENT.md (Architecture & General Guide)
This document will serve as the entry point for understanding the Breedr system.
- **Tech Stack Overview**: React, Express, SQLite (better-sqlite3).
- **Architecture**: Monorepo structure (`client/`, `server/`), data flow, and core principles.
- **Database System**: Detailed explanation of the "Parents Table" approach vs. traditional `sire_id`/`dam_id` columns, migration strategies, and schema initialization.
- **Project Structure**: High-level explanation of key directories and files.
- **Development Workflow**: How to run the app locally, common commands, and testing procedures (if any).
- **Coding Standards**: Patterns for backend routes and frontend components.
### 3.2 API.md (REST API Documentation)
A comprehensive list of all backend API endpoints.
- **Endpoint Definitions**: URL, method, and purpose.
- **Request Parameters**: Headers, query params, and body schemas.
- **Response Format**: Expected JSON structure and status codes.
- **Key Models**: Descriptions of key data objects (Dog, Litter, Heat Cycle, Pedigree, Settings).
### 3.3 FRONTEND_GUIDE.md (UI/UX & React Patterns)
A guide focusing on the client-side implementation.
- **Context & Hooks**: Documentation of `useSettings`, `SettingsProvider`, and any other shared state mechanisms.
- **Component Patterns**: Key reusable components (`DogForm`, `PedigreeTree`, etc.).
- **Styling**: Use of CSS custom properties (theming) and global styles.
- **Pedigree Visualization**: How `react-d3-tree` is integrated and used for genealogy mapping.
- **Routing**: Client-side navigation structure using `react-router-dom`.
## 4. Non-Functional Requirements
- **Consistency**: Documentation must match the current state (v0.6.1) of the codebase.
- **Clarity**: Use clear, concise language and code examples where appropriate.
- **Maintainability**: Organize documents so they are easy to update when new features are added.
## 5. Success Criteria
- The three proposed documentation files (`DEVELOPMENT.md`, `API.md`, `FRONTEND_GUIDE.md`) are created in the project root.
- The documentation accurately reflects the current codebase architecture, API, and frontend patterns.
- An agent can use these documents to understand how to implement a new feature (e.g., adding a new field to the Dog model) without scanning the entire codebase.
