Architecture Patterns​

Component Organization​

Feature-Based Structure​

Components are organized by feature rather than by type, promoting better maintainability and code locality:

src/components/
├── common/          # Reusable UI components
│   ├── Header.tsx
│   ├── DatePicker.tsx
│   ├── TaskCard.tsx
│   └── LoadingSpinner.tsx
├── planning/        # Task planning features
│   ├── Planner.tsx
│   ├── WeekView.tsx
│   ├── TaskColumn.tsx
│   └── WeeklyPlan.tsx
├── timer/           # Time tracking features
│   ├── TimerDisplay.tsx
│   ├── SessionNotes.tsx
│   └── TimerControls.tsx
├── ai/              # AI assistant interface
│   ├── ChatInterface.tsx
│   ├── AIToolsPanel.tsx
│   └── ConversationHistory.tsx
└── settings/        # Configuration UI
    ├── PreferencesPanel.tsx
    ├── AISettings.tsx
    └── PrivacySettings.tsx

Component Patterns​

  • Container Components: Handle state and business logic
  • Presentational Components: Focus on UI rendering
  • Custom Hooks: Encapsulate reusable logic
  • Context Providers: Manage global state

Service Layer Architecture​

Repository Pattern​

All database operations go through service classes that act as repositories:

src/services/database/repositories/
├── TaskService.ts           # Task CRUD operations
├── TimeTrackingService.ts   # Timer and session management
├── TaskListService.ts       # Task list operations
├── FocusService.ts          # Focus session tracking
├── PatternService.ts        # Productivity pattern analysis
└── LogStorageService.ts     # AI conversation logging

AI Service Architecture​

AI functionality is modularized with clear separation of concerns:

src/services/ai/
├── AIServiceInterface.ts    # Common AI service interface
├── ReactAIService.ts        # Google Gemini integration
├── ToolRegistry.ts          # AI tool management
├── ToolExecutionEngine.ts   # Tool execution logic
├── LoggingInterceptor.ts    # Conversation logging
├── PrivacyFilter.ts         # Data privacy protection
└── tools.ts                 # AI tool definitions

State Management​

React Context Pattern​

KiraPilot uses React Context for state management:

// Context structure
TaskListContext; // Task and list management
TimerContext; // Time tracking state
SettingsContext; // User preferences
NavigationContext; // App navigation state
AIContext; // AI assistant state
PrivacyContext; // Privacy settings and data protection

Data Flow​

Unidirectional Data Flow​

User Action → Context → Service → Tauri Command → SeaORM → SQLite
                ↓
            Component ← Context ← Service ← Tauri Response ← Database

Key Files and Folders​

Frontend Core Files​

src/App.tsx​

Main application component that sets up routing, contexts, and global layout.

src/main.tsx​

Application entry point with React 19 setup and context providers.

src/types/index.ts​

Central type definitions including:

  • Core interfaces (Task, TimerSession, etc.)
  • Enums (Priority, TaskStatus, etc.)
  • API request/response types
  • User preferences and configuration types

Context Providers​

src/contexts/TaskListContext.tsx​

Manages task list state, current selection, and task operations.

src/contexts/TimerContext.tsx​

Handles timer state, session management, and time tracking.

src/contexts/AIContext.tsx​

AI assistant state, conversation history, and tool execution.

src/contexts/SettingsContext.tsx​

User preferences, theme settings, and application configuration.

Service Layer​

src/services/database/repositories/TaskService.ts​

Primary task management service with CRUD operations, filtering, and sorting.

src/services/ai/ToolRegistry.ts​

Manages AI tools that can interact with the application (create tasks, start timers, etc.).

src/services/ai/LoggingInterceptor.ts​

Handles AI conversation logging with privacy controls and data retention.

Utility Functions​

src/utils/translationUtils.ts​

Internationalization utilities for multi-language support.

src/utils/dataBackup.ts​

Data export/import functionality for user data portability.

src/utils/migration.ts​

Database migration utilities for schema updates.

Backend Structure​

src-tauri/src/commands/​

Tauri command handlers that expose Rust functionality to the frontend.

src-tauri/src/database/​

SeaORM models and database connection management.

src-tauri/migrations/​

Database schema migrations for SQLite.

Configuration Files​

vite.config.ts​

Vite build configuration with Tauri integration, TypeScript paths, and Tailwind CSS.

tailwind.config.js​

Tailwind CSS configuration with HeroUI integration and custom theme.

tsconfig.json​

TypeScript configuration with strict mode and modern ES features.

package.json​

Frontend dependencies, scripts, and project metadata.

Development Tools​

scripts/​

Build automation and development utilities:

  • Cross-platform build scripts
  • Version synchronization
  • Build metadata generation

.github/workflows/​

CI/CD pipeline definitions for automated testing and releases.

docs/​

Docusaurus-based documentation site with API references and user guides.

Import Patterns​

// External libraries first
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { Button, Card } from '@heroui/react';

// Internal imports by proximity
import { Task, TaskStatus, Priority } from '../types';
import { useDatabase } from '../hooks/useDatabase';
import { getTaskRepository } from '../services/database/repositories';
import { TaskCard } from './TaskCard';

Path Aliases​

The project uses TypeScript path mapping for cleaner imports:

// Instead of: import { Task } from '../../../types'
import { Task } from '@/types';

// Instead of: import { useDatabase } from '../../hooks/useDatabase'
import { useDatabase } from '@/hooks/useDatabase';

Testing Structure​

Test Organization​

src/
├── __tests__/
│   ├── setup/           # Test configuration and global setup
│   ├── mocks/           # Mock implementations for services
│   └── integration/     # Integration test suites
└── components/
    └── __tests__/       # Component unit tests

Mock Strategy​

  • Database Mocks: In-memory SQLite for tests
  • Service Mocks: Predictable test data and responses
  • Component Mocks: Isolated component testing
  • Tauri Mocks: Mock Tauri commands for frontend testing

This structure provides clear separation of concerns, maintainable code organization, and excellent developer experience while supporting the application's growth and feature expansion.
