This guide walks you through refactoring your existing React app to V2 with the new design and features.
git checkout -b v2-refactorYour updated file structure should look like this:
src/
βββ data/
β βββ DrumData.v2.js β NEW: Updated data module
βββ hooks/
β βββ useRoutineGenerator.js β NEW: Smart rotation hook
βββ components/
β βββ Header.js β UPDATED: New design
β βββ SessionFlow.jsx β NEW: Practice session component
βββ pages/
β βββ HomePage.jsx β NEW: Main dashboard
β βββ LibraryPage.jsx β NEW: Lessons browser
β βββ SongsPage.jsx β NEW: Song table
βββ App.js β UPDATED: New state management
- Replace/update
DrumData.v2.jsinsrc/data/ - Verify all imports use correct paths
- Create
src/hooks/useRoutineGenerator.js - Test routine generation logic
- Update
src/components/Header.jswith new design - Create
src/components/SessionFlow.jsxfor practice sessions - Remove old components no longer needed
- Create
src/pages/HomePage.jsx - Create
src/pages/LibraryPage.jsx - Create
src/pages/SongsPage.jsx - Remove old page files
- Update
src/App.jswith new state management - Verify all props are passed correctly
- Test navigation between screens
Make sure you have these dependencies:
{
"dependencies": {
"react": "^18.0.0",
"react-dom": "^18.0.0",
"lucide-react": "^0.263.1"
}
}Install if needed:
npm install lucide-react- Moved all state to
App.js(single source of truth) - Uses
useEffectfor localStorage persistence - Custom
useRoutineGeneratorhook for smart rotation
- Simple state-based routing (no react-router needed)
- Screens:
home,library,songs,session - Clean navigation via
currentScreenstate
App.js (state container)
βββ Header (navigation + stats)
βββ HomePage (dashboard)
βββ LibraryPage (lessons)
βββ SongsPage (song table)
βββ SessionFlow (practice)
- β¨ Smart routine rotation (respects pins/excludes)
- β¨ 10-minute quick session option
- β¨ Improved library with 3 tabs
- β¨ Song progression table
- β¨ Better visual design (matches mockups)
- Session buttons work (20min & 10min)
- Routine card displays correctly
- Regenerate button creates new routine
- Current/Goal song cards show correct data
- Mark Complete button works
- All 3 tabs work (Warmups, Grooves, Practice)
- Pin button toggles correctly (blue when pinned)
- Exclude button toggles correctly (red when excluded)
- Watch links open in new tab
- Routine regenerates when pins/excludes change
- Search filters songs
- Show/hide hidden songs toggle works
- Sort dropdown works
- All links (Tutorial, Play-along, Sheet) open correctly
- Mark Complete advances to next song
- Hide/Show button works
- Progress circle animates correctly
- All video links work
- Continue button advances steps
- Complete session updates stats
- Streak logic works correctly
- Exit returns to home
- Streak increments on practice
- Streak breaks if day missed
- Sessions count increases
- Songs completed count updates
Solution: Check import paths match your file structure exactly
// Correct:
import { warmups } from '../data/DrumData.v2';
// Wrong:
import { warmups } from './data/DrumData.v2';Solution: Check browser console for errors in useRoutineGenerator hook
Solution: Check useEffect dependencies in App.js
Solution: Install lucide-react: npm install lucide-react
npm run buildnetlify deploy --prod --dir=buildOr use Netlify's GitHub integration for automatic deployments.
If users have existing data in localStorage:
drumflow_songs- Will work as-is βdrumflow_stats- Will work as-is β- New keys:
drumflow_pinned,drumflow_excluded,drumflow_todays_routine
V2 is designed to work with V1 localStorage data. New features (pins/excludes) start empty if not present.

- Start with data - Get
DrumData.v2.jsworking first - Build bottom-up - Hook β Components β Pages β App
- Test incrementally - Don't wait to test until everything is done
- Use console.log - Debug state changes in App.js
- Check localStorage - Use browser DevTools β Application β Local Storage
If you encounter issues:
- Check the browser console for errors
- Verify file paths and imports
- Compare your code with the artifacts provided
- Test individual components in isolation
- All files created and in correct locations
- No console errors
- All features work as expected
- localStorage persists correctly
- Responsive on mobile
- Build succeeds (
npm run build) - Deployed to staging/test environment
- Code committed with clear message
- Ready to merge to main!
Good luck with the refactor! π₯π
