Phase 1 Complete - Project Foundation

Phase 1 of the Apitomy OpenAPI Editor project has been successfully completed!

What Was Accomplished

1. GitHub Repository Created

  • Repository: https://github.com/Apitomy/apitomy-openapi-editor
  • Status: Private (will be made public later)
  • License: Apache 2.0

2. Project Initialized

  • Build Tool: Vite 7.x
  • Framework: React 19.x with TypeScript 5.x
  • UI Framework: PatternFly 6.x
  • State Management: Zustand 5.x
  • Data Models: @apitomy/data-models 2.2.6

3. Development Environment Configured

  • TypeScript: Strict mode enabled with comprehensive compiler options
  • ESLint: Configured with React and TypeScript rules
  • Path Aliases: Set up for clean imports (@components, @services, @stores, etc.)
  • Build: Configured for dual ESM/CJS output with TypeScript declarations

4. Project Structure Established

5. Documentation Created

  • README.md: Project overview, installation, usage examples
  • CONTRIBUTING.md: Contribution guidelines and development workflow
  • LICENSE: Apache 2.0 license
  • IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md: Comprehensive implementation roadmap

6. Build Configuration

  • Library Mode: Configured to output as npm package
  • Package Name: @apitomy/openapi-editor
  • Peer Dependencies: React, PatternFly components
  • Direct Dependencies: @apitomy/data-models, Zustand
  • Output Formats: ESM and CommonJS with TypeScript declarations

7. Initial Component Created

  • Basic OpenAPIEditor component with props interface
  • Exported types for library consumers
  • Successfully builds without errors

Verified Functionality

✅ Project builds successfully: npm run build ✅ Linting passes: npm run lint ✅ Git repository initialized and pushed to GitHub ✅ Package.json configured for npm publishing ✅ TypeScript strict mode enabled and passing

Next Steps - Phase 2: Core Infrastructure

Phase 2 will focus on building the foundation for the editor:

  1. Create Zustand Stores for:
  2. Document state (OpenAPI document)
  3. Selection state (current node selection)
  4. Command history (undo/redo)

  5. UI state (modals, drawers)

  6. Implement Core Services:

  7. DocumentService: Parse, validate, update OpenAPI documents
  8. CommandService: Execute commands with undo/redo
  9. SelectionService: Track node selections

  10. ValidationService: Real-time validation

  11. Create Service Context Providers:

  12. Wrap services in React Context
  13. Create custom hooks for service access

  14. Wire up Zustand stores

  15. Build Main Editor Shell:

  16. Layout structure
  17. PatternFly Page components
  18. Basic routing/navigation

Dependencies Installed

Production Dependencies

  • @apitomy/data-models@2.2.6 - OpenAPI parsing and commands
  • zustand@5.0.9 - State management

Peer Dependencies (for development)

  • react@19.2.0
  • react-dom@19.2.0
  • @patternfly/react-core@6.4.0
  • @patternfly/react-table@6.4.0
  • @patternfly/react-icons@6.4.0

Development Dependencies

  • TypeScript 5.9.3
  • Vite 7.2.6
  • ESLint 9.39.1
  • Various TypeScript and ESLint plugins

Key Decisions Made

  1. Package Scope: @apitomy/openapi-editor (scoped package)
  2. Version: Starting at 0.1.0 (pre-release)
  3. UI Pattern: Modal dialogs for complex operations, inline editing for simple fields
  4. State Management: Zustand (simpler than Redux, more structured than Context alone)
  5. Build Output: Dual ESM/CJS for maximum compatibility
  6. TypeScript: Strict mode for type safety
  7. Path Aliases: Clean imports using @ prefixes
