Development Hub

📝 Project description

Development Hub is a professional-grade task management orchestrator built with React 19. It moves away from traditional static Kanban structures by implementing a Domain-Driven Projection engine, allowing users to visualize the same data truth through different methodological lenses (Scrum or Kanban).

Core engineering features

• Hybrid projection engine: Seamlessly switch between Scrum and Kanban views where cards are dynamically mapped to columns based on semantic status.
• Triple domain separation: Strict separation of concerns between Card (Truth), Column (Structure), and Board (Orchestration).
• Context-Aware Hooks: Optimized state management following the "Golden Rule": components request data directly from context, eliminating prop drilling.
• Clean-Slate policy: Automated storage reset on reload to ensure a consistent, "factory-fresh" experience for demonstration and portfolio review.
• Zero-backend persistence: Utilizes an advanced service layer to manage sessionStorage with defensive programming against data corruption.

⚠️ Note: This project is designed as a high-level engineering showcase. Data is transient by design to facilitate rapid testing of different board templates.

📊 Performance & Quality (Lighthouse)

The project was audited using Google Lighthouse, achieving a good score in Performance. This reflects the efficiency of the Domain-Driven Projection architecture, which minimizes unnecessary re-renders even with heavy client-side data manipulation.

📚 Technical documentation

To understand the core engine and the logic behind the "Limbo Prevention" and "Mirroring", refer to the guides:

• System architecture: Details on the Projection-Based Responsibilities and Domain layers.
• Best practices & Standards: Smart Hooks, Memoization patterns, and the Responsibility Matrix.
• System workflows: Lifecycle of card projection, mirroring, and the Clean-Slate reload logic.

🛠️ Technologies used

Core implementation details:

• React 19: Utilizing Context API, Custom Hooks, and Portals for the modal engine.
• React Router 7: Basename and Route Boundaries for GitHub Pages compatibility.
• UI/UX: Enhanced feedback with React Toastify and unified iconography via React Icons.
• Deployment: CI/CD pipeline using the gh-pages utility.

🚀 Roadmap & Future improvements

This project is a living organism. Below are the implementations planned for upcoming versions:

1. Drag & Drop engine (high priority)

• Goal: Implement visual movement of cards between columns and internal reordering.
• Technical approach: Utilization of the dnd library integrated with the CardContext. The logic will involve real-time updates of the card's status and index within sessionStorage upon component collision.

2. Accessibility & A11Y compliance

• Goal: Reach a 100/100 score on Lighthouse Accessibility and ensure WCAG 2.1 compatibility.
• Technical approach: Implementation of ARIA Landmarks, keyboard navigation for all interactive elements (Focus Trap on modals), and semantic contrast adjustments.

3. Advanced filtering & Tags

• Goal: Develop a global search system and filtering by priority or labels within both Scrum and Kanban boards.
