admin 77c03144a9 Task 2 & 3: Set up project structure and build BootSequence component
- Task 2: Project structure and types already complete from Task 1
- Task 3: Create BootSequence component with Framer Motion
  - 14 boot lines with 220ms staggered delays
  - Terminal typing animation with opacity/translateY transitions
  - Blinking cursor using CSS animation
  - AnimatePresence for 800ms exit fade
  - Total boot time ~4.28s matching concept.html
- Update App.tsx to use BootSequence with phase transitions

# Progress Log — React Conversion Phase
## Codebase Patterns
- **Source of truth**: `References/concept.html` contains the complete working HTML implementation. All animations, timing, colors, and styling must be preserved exactly when porting to React.
- **Tech stack**: React 18+, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS, Framer Motion, Lucide React
- **Project structure**: Components in `src/components/`, hooks in `src/hooks/`, types in `src/types/`, utilities in `src/lib/`
- **Animation approach**: Framer Motion for complex sequences (boot, ECG), CSS transitions for simple hover effects, IntersectionObserver (via hook) for scroll-triggered animations
- **SVG animations**: Use Framer Motion's `pathLength` prop for drawing effects, or CSS `stroke-dasharray`/`stroke-dashoffset` for skill gauges
- **Skill gauge math**: `circumference = 2 * Math.PI * radius`, `strokeDashoffset = circumference * (1 - level / 100)`, rotate -90deg to start from top
- **Boot sequence timing**: 14 lines × 220ms = ~3080ms, plus 400ms pause, 800ms fade = ~4.28s total
- **ECG timing**: Flatline 1000ms + 3 beats × 600ms + holds 300ms + branching 1500ms + fade 500ms = ~5.5s
- **Color palette**:
- ECG phase: #000 (black), #00ff41 (green), #00e5ff (cyan), #3a6b45 (dim green)
- Final design: #00897B (teal), #FF6B6B (coral), #0F172A (heading), #334155 (text), #94A3B8 (muted)
- **Fonts**: Fira Code (boot), Plus Jakarta Sans (primary), Inter Tight (secondary)
- **Responsive breakpoints**: 768px (tablet), 480px (mobile)
## Iteration Log
### Phase Transition — React Conversion Setup
- Previous phase completed: Single HTML file `concept.html` fully built with all 9 tasks
- New phase started: Convert HTML concept to React + TypeScript + Vite project
- IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md updated with 12 React-specific tasks
- RALPH_PROMPT.md updated with explicit /frontend-design skill requirement for all visual components
- This progress.txt reset for new phase
<!-- Iterations will be logged here as tasks are completed -->
### Iteration 1 — Task 1: Initialize React project
- **Completed**: Task 1 - Initialize React project with Vite + TypeScript + Tailwind
- **Files created**:
- `package.json` with dependencies: React 18, Framer Motion, Lucide React, Tailwind
- `tsconfig.json`, `tsconfig.app.json`, `tsconfig.node.json` for TypeScript
- `vite.config.ts` with path alias `@/` -> `./src/`
- `tailwind.config.js` with custom colors (teal, coral, ecg-green), fonts, shadows
- `postcss.config.js` for Tailwind processing
- `index.html` with Google Fonts (Fira Code, Plus Jakarta Sans, Inter Tight)
- `src/index.css` with Tailwind directives and CSS custom properties
- `src/main.tsx` entry point
- `src/App.tsx` placeholder component
- `src/types/index.ts` with TypeScript interfaces
- `src/lib/utils.ts` with skill gauge calculation helper
- `eslint.config.js` with React hooks and refresh rules
- **Project structure created**: `src/components/`, `src/hooks/`, `src/lib/`, `src/types/`
- **Quality checks**: `npm run typecheck` ✓, `npm run build` ✓, `npm run lint` ✓
- **Learnings**:
- Need `src/vite-env.d.ts` with `/// <reference types="vite/client" />` for CSS imports
- Vite refuses to scaffold in non-empty directory, so manual setup was needed
### Iteration 2 — Task 2 & 3: Project structure and BootSequence
- **Completed**: Task 2 (Set up project structure and types) - was already done in Task 1
- **Completed**: Task 3 - Build BootSequence component
- **Files created**:
- `src/components/BootSequence.tsx` - Terminal typing animation using Framer Motion
- **Design decisions**:
- Used Framer Motion's `motion.div` with `initial`/`animate` props for line reveals
- Each line animates with opacity 0→1, translateY 8px→0 over 400ms
- Staggered delays calculated from cumulative 220ms per line
- Blinking cursor implemented with CSS animation class `animate-blink`
- Used `AnimatePresence` for smooth exit fade (800ms)
- **Boot sequence timing preserved**: 14 lines × 220ms + 400ms pause + 800ms fade = ~4.28s
- **Quality checks**: `npm run typecheck` ✓, `npm run build` ✓, `npm run lint` ✓
- **Learnings**:
- Framer Motion's delay prop uses seconds, not milliseconds
- Used `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` for colored spans within boot lines (matches concept.html structure)
- CSS classes for blink/seed-pulse animations already existed in index.css from Task 1
