Implemented a comprehensive unified wizard system to consolidate all "add new content"
actions into a single, intuitive, step-by-step guided experience based on Jobs To Be Done
(JTBD) methodology.
## What's New
### Core Components
- **UnifiedAddWizard**: Main orchestrator component that routes to specific wizards
- **ItemTypeSelector**: Beautiful visual card-based selection for 9 content types
- **9 Individual Wizards**: Step-by-step flows for each content type
### Priority Implementations (P0)
1. **SalesEntryWizard** ⭐ (MOST CRITICAL)
- Manual entry with dynamic product lists and auto-calculated totals
- File upload placeholder for CSV/Excel bulk import
- Critical for small bakeries without POS systems
2. **InventoryWizard**
- Type selection (ingredient vs finished product)
- Context-aware forms based on inventory type
- Optional initial lot entry
### Placeholder Wizards (P1/P2)
- Customer Order, Supplier, Recipe, Customer, Quality Template, Equipment, Team Member
- Proper structure in place for incremental enhancement
### Dashboard Integration
- Added prominent "Agregar" button in dashboard header
- Opens wizard modal with visual type selection
- Auto-refreshes dashboard after wizard completion
### Design Highlights
- Mobile-first responsive design (full-screen on mobile, modal on desktop)
- Touch-friendly with 44px+ touch targets
- Follows existing color system and design tokens
- Progressive disclosure to reduce cognitive load
- Accessibility-compliant (WCAG AA)
## Documentation
Created comprehensive documentation:
- `JTBD_UNIFIED_ADD_WIZARD.md` - Full JTBD analysis and research
- `WIZARD_ARCHITECTURE_DESIGN.md` - Technical design and specifications
- `UNIFIED_WIZARD_IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md` - Implementation guide
## Files Changed
- New: `frontend/src/components/domain/unified-wizard/` (15 new files)
- Modified: `frontend/src/pages/app/DashboardPage.tsx` (added wizard integration)
## Next Steps
- [ ] Connect wizards to real API endpoints (currently mock/placeholder)
- [ ] Implement full CSV upload for sales entry
- [ ] Add comprehensive form validation
- [ ] Enhance P1 priority wizards based on user feedback
## JTBD Alignment
Main Job: "When I need to expand or update my bakery operations, I want to quickly add
new resources to my management system, so I can keep my business running smoothly."
Key insights applied:
- Prioritized sales entry (most bakeries lack POS)
- Mobile-first (bakery owners are on their feet)
- Progressive disclosure (reduce overwhelm)
- Forgiving interactions (can go back, save drafts)

## 🔄 State Management & Data Flow
|
||
|
||
### Context Structure
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
const WizardContext = {
|
||
// Navigation
|
||
currentStep: 0,
|
||
totalSteps: 3,
|
||
selectedItemType: null, // 'inventory', 'supplier', etc.
|
||
|
||
// Data
|
||
formData: {}, // Step-specific data
|
||
validationErrors: {},
|
||
|
||
// Actions
|
||
goToStep: (step) => {},
|
||
nextStep: () => {},
|
||
prevStep: () => {},
|
||
setItemType: (type) => {},
|
||
updateFormData: (data) => {},
|
||
submitWizard: async () => {},
|
||
|
||
// Draft saving
|
||
saveDraft: () => {}, // Auto-save to localStorage
|
||
loadDraft: () => {},
|
||
clearDraft: () => {},
|
||
|
||
// Utilities
|
||
isStepValid: (step) => boolean,
|
||
canProceed: () => boolean,
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### API Integration Pattern
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
// Use existing React Query hooks
|
||
const { mutate: createItem, isLoading } = useCreateItem(itemType);
|
||
|
||
const handleSubmit = async (formData) => {
|
||
try {
|
||
await createItem(formData);
|
||
showSuccessMessage();
|
||
onClose();
|
||
// Suggest next action
|
||
} catch (error) {
|
||
showErrorMessage(error);
|
||
}
|
||
};
|
||
```

||
|
||
## 🎯 Progressive Disclosure Strategy
|
||
|
||
### Level 1: Item Type Selection (Cognitive Load: Low)
|
||
**Show:** 9 visual cards with clear icons and descriptions
|
||
**Hide:** All form complexity
|
||
|
||
### Level 2: Wizard Steps (Cognitive Load: Medium)
|
||
**Show:** Only current step, progress indicator, clear next action
|
||
**Hide:** Other steps, advanced options (collapsible)
|
||
|
||
### Level 3: Within Step (Cognitive Load: Low per section)
|
||
**Show:** Required fields first, grouped logically
|
||
**Hide:** Optional fields in "Advanced Options" accordion
|
||
|
||
### Level 4: Help & Context (Available on demand)
|
||
**Show:** ? icons for field-specific help tooltips
|
||
**Hide:** Lengthy explanations unless requested
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 📱 Mobile-Specific Optimizations
|
||
|
||
### Navigation
|
||
- **Bottom sheet on mobile** (easier thumb reach)
|
||
- **Swipe gestures** to go back/forward between steps
|
||
- **Sticky footer buttons** always visible
|
||
|
||
### Input Methods
|
||
- **Native date/time pickers** on mobile
|
||
- **Autocomplete** for product/customer selection
|
||
- **Camera integration** for barcode scanning (future enhancement)
|
||
|
||
### Performance
|
||
- **Lazy load** individual wizards (code splitting)
|
||
- **Debounced validation** (don't validate on every keystroke)
|
||
- **Optimistic UI updates** for better perceived performance
|
||
|
||
### Offline Support (Future)
|
||
- Save drafts to localStorage
|
||
- Queue submissions when offline
|
||
- Sync when connection restored
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## ✅ Validation Strategy
|
||
|
||
### Real-time Validation
|
||
- Required field indicators (asterisk)
|
||
- Field-level validation on blur
|
||
- Clear error messages below fields
|
||
- Success indicators (green checkmark) when valid
|
||
|
||
### Step-level Validation
|
||
- "Next" button disabled until step is valid
|
||
- Summary of errors at top if user tries to proceed
|
||
- Auto-focus first invalid field
|
||
|
||
### Relationship Validation
|
||
- Check if recipe ingredients exist in inventory
|
||
- Warn if adding duplicate items
|
||
- Suggest existing items that match (fuzzy search)
