Once these commands run without a hitch, you're all set to start working on the hover style issue. Let's get to it!
Comprehensive Plan Description
This plan focuses on fixing the hover style in the MedicalClinicSidebar component located in apps/web/src/presentation/components/layout/MedicalClinicSidebar.tsx. Our main goal is to ensure the sidebar items have a clear visual change when hovered over, enhancing the user experience.
We'll be referencing legacy HTML/CSS code from the following files:
legacy/client/pages/index.htmllegacy/client/js/index.jslegacy/client/assets/styles/index.css
These legacy files will provide valuable insights into how the hover effect was initially intended to function. By examining these files, we can understand the original design and styling, which will help us replicate and improve the hover effect in the new component.
Our approach involves several steps. First, we'll carefully review the existing code in MedicalClinicSidebar.tsx to identify the current styling and any potential issues preventing the hover effect from working correctly. This includes checking for any conflicting styles or incorrect event handlers. Next, we'll analyze the legacy code to understand the original implementation of the hover effect. This will involve inspecting the HTML structure, JavaScript behavior, and CSS rules used to create the effect. Key aspects to consider include the use of CSS classes, pseudo-classes (e.g., :hover), and any JavaScript-based event handling.
Once we have a clear understanding of both the current component and the legacy implementation, we can begin implementing the fix. This will likely involve modifying the CSS styles applied to the sidebar items to ensure they change appearance when hovered over. We might need to add or adjust CSS classes, modify existing styles, or introduce new styles specifically for the hover effect. For example, we might change the background color, text color, or add a subtle animation to indicate the item is being hovered over. If necessary, we'll also adjust the JavaScript code to handle hover events and apply the appropriate styles. This might involve adding event listeners or modifying existing event handlers to trigger the hover effect.
Throughout the implementation process, we'll adhere to the project's coding standards and best practices. This includes writing clean, readable, and well-documented code. We'll use TypeScript to ensure type safety and prevent runtime errors. We'll also follow the principles of clean architecture to maintain a clear separation of concerns and ensure the component is easy to maintain and extend. This might involve refactoring the component's structure or moving styling logic to a separate CSS module. Performance considerations will also be a priority. We'll ensure the hover effect is smooth and responsive, without causing any noticeable lag or performance issues. This might involve optimizing CSS styles, reducing the amount of JavaScript code executed, or using techniques like CSS transitions to create smooth animations. The goal is to create a hover effect that enhances the user experience without negatively impacting the application's performance.
Finally, we'll thoroughly test the fix to ensure it works as expected and doesn't introduce any regressions. This will involve manual testing, where we interact with the sidebar and verify the hover effect is working correctly. We'll also write unit tests to cover the component's logic and styling, and integration tests to ensure it integrates seamlessly with the rest of the application. This comprehensive testing approach will help us identify and fix any issues before deploying the changes to production.

We need to make sure that all features are implemented as planned, and that the code follows our existing patterns and best practices. It's crucial that the functionality works as expected and integrates smoothly with the rest of the codebase. Clean, readable, and well-documented code is a must, and we need to pay close attention to TypeScript types, error handling, and performance.
Testing is a big part of this. We'll need unit tests for new functionality, integration tests to verify workflows, and end-to-end (E2E) tests for user-facing features. And, of course, all existing tests should continue to pass. Documentation is also key, so the code should be properly commented, and any relevant API documentation or README files should be updated. We also need to ensure that our changes work in all environments and that the CI/CD pipeline passes without issues. No breaking changes should be introduced, and any database migrations should be thoroughly tested.
Finally, we need to ensure that our changes comply with the principles of clean architecture. This means dependencies should flow in the correct direction, business logic should be separated from infrastructure, the domain layer should remain independent, and proper abstraction layers should be maintained. This ensures our codebase remains maintainable and scalable in the long run.
Technical Implementation Guidelines
To maintain a consistent and high-quality codebase, we'll adhere to the following technical guidelines. These guidelines cover clean architecture principles, code quality standards, and performance considerations.
## Technical Guidelines for Implementation
### Clean Architecture Principles
**1. Dependency Direction:**
- Outer layers depend on inner layers only
- Domain layer has no external dependencies
- Application layer orchestrates domain logic
- Infrastructure implements interfaces from inner layers
**2. Layer Organization:**
- **Domain Core**: Business entities, value objects, domain services
- **Application Core**: Use cases, application services, DTOs
- **Infrastructure**: Database, external APIs, framework-specific code
**3. SOLID Principles:**
- Single Responsibility: Each class has one reason to change
- Open/Closed: Open for extension, closed for modification
- Liskov Substitution: Subtypes must be substitutable for base types
- Interface Segregation: Many specific interfaces vs few general ones
- Dependency Inversion: Depend on abstractions, not concretions
### Code Quality Standards
**1. TypeScript Usage:**
- Use strict mode and proper type definitions
- Avoid `any` type, use specific types or `unknown`
- Define interfaces for all data structures
- Use generic types appropriately
**2. Error Handling:**
- Use Result/Either patterns for error handling
- Provide meaningful error messages
- Log errors at appropriate levels
- Handle edge cases and validation errors
**3. Testing Strategy:**
- Unit tests for business logic (domain layer)
- Integration tests for application services
- E2E tests for complete user workflows
- Mock external dependencies appropriately
### Performance Considerations
- Use efficient algorithms and data structures
- Implement proper caching strategies
- Consider database query optimization
- Handle async operations properly
- Monitor memory usage and potential leaks
Following Clean Architecture principles is essential for maintainability and scalability. We'll ensure that dependencies flow in the correct direction, with outer layers depending on inner layers. The Domain Core should be free of external dependencies, and the Infrastructure layer should implement interfaces from inner layers. SOLID principles should guide our code design, ensuring that classes have single responsibilities, are open for extension but closed for modification, and follow the Liskov Substitution principle. Interface Segregation and Dependency Inversion will help us create flexible and decoupled code.
When it comes to Code Quality Standards, TypeScript usage is paramount. We'll use strict mode, define proper type definitions, and avoid the any type. Interfaces will be defined for all data structures, and generic types will be used appropriately. Error handling should follow Result/Either patterns, providing meaningful error messages and logging at appropriate levels. We'll also handle edge cases and validation errors. Our Testing Strategy includes unit tests for business logic, integration tests for application services, and E2E tests for complete user workflows. External dependencies should be mocked appropriately to ensure isolated and reliable tests.
Performance Considerations are also a key factor. We'll use efficient algorithms and data structures, implement caching strategies, and consider database query optimization. Async operations should be handled properly, and we'll monitor memory usage to prevent potential leaks. By following these technical guidelines, we can ensure our code is not only functional but also maintainable, scalable, and performant.

β οΈ CRITICAL: Commit Message Guidelines
Last but not least, let's talk about commit messages. These are super important for keeping our commit history clean and organized. Failing to follow these rules will cause commit failures! So, pay attention!
## β οΈ MANDATORY Commit Message Format
**π¨ FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES WILL CAUSE COMMIT FAILURES! π¨**
**Format:** `type(scope): subject`
**Example:** `feat(api): implement user authentication system`
**Available Types:**
- `feat` - A new feature (most common for comprehensive plans)
- `fix` - A bug fix
- `refactor` - Code changes that neither fix bugs nor add features
- `perf` - Performance improvements
- `test` - Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
- `docs` - Documentation only changes
- `style` - Formatting changes
- `build` - Build system or dependency changes
- `ci` - CI configuration changes
- `chore` - Other changes
**Scope Rules (REQUIRED):**
- Use kebab-case (lowercase with hyphens)
- Examples: `api`, `web`, `domain`, application-shared`, `utils-core`
- Use `auth`, `api`, `ui`, `database` for feature-specific scopes
**Subject Rules (REQUIRED):**
- Start with lowercase letter or number
- No period at the end
- Header length limits vary by scope:
- `api-e2e`, `web-e2e`, application-shared`: max 100 characters
- `domain`: max 95 characters
- `api`, `web`: max 93 characters
- `utils-core`: max 90 characters
- All other scopes: max 82 characters
- Be descriptive and specific about what was implemented
**Multi-commit Guidelines:**
For large implementations, break into logical commits:
- `feat(domain): add user entity and value objects`
- `feat(application-shared): implement authentication use cases`
- `feat(api): add authentication endpoints`
- `test(api): add comprehensive auth tests`
**Reference:** See `commitlint.config.ts` and `.husky/commit-msg` for complete rules
**β οΈ Your commits will be automatically rejected if they don't follow these rules!**
Our commit messages need to follow a specific format: type(scope): subject. This helps us understand the purpose of each commit at a glance. The type can be things like feat for a new feature, fix for a bug fix, refactor for code changes, and so on. The scope should be in kebab-case, like api, web, domain, and should specify which part of the application the commit affects. The subject should start with a lowercase letter or number, have no period at the end, and be descriptive about what was implemented.
There are also length limits for the subject, which vary depending on the scope. For example, api-e2e, web-e2e, and application-shared have a maximum of 100 characters, while api and web have a maximum of 93 characters. It's crucial to adhere to these limits to avoid commit rejections. For large implementations, it's best to break them into logical commits. For instance, adding a user authentication system might involve separate commits for the domain, application-shared, and API layers.
You can refer to commitlint.config.ts and .husky/commit-msg for the complete rules. Remember, your commits will be automatically rejected if they don't follow these guidelines. So, let's make sure we get this right!
