# Scrum4Me — Styling & Design System

**Versie:** 0.1 — april 2026
**Onderdeel van:** CLAUDE.md context-set

---

## Overzicht

Scrum4Me gebruikt **Material Design 3 (MD3)** als kleurfilosofie, geïmplementeerd via CSS custom properties in `theme.css` en direct bruikbaar als Tailwind utility classes. **shadcn/ui** levert alle UI-primitieven (Button, Dialog, Sheet, Badge, etc.) en is volledig compatibel met het MD3-kleurensysteem via de legacy-token-mapping.

Lees dit document voordat je een component schrijft. Gebruik **nooit** willekeurige Tailwind-kleuren zoals `bg-blue-500` of `bg-green-600` — gebruik altijd de semantische tokens uit dit systeem.

---

## Setup

### 1. theme.css plaatsen

Kopieer het meegeleverde `theme.css` bestand naar:

```
app/globals.css   ← importeer theme.css hier, of plak de inhoud direct
```

Of als apart bestand:
```
styles/theme.css
```

Importeer in `app/globals.css`:
```css
@import './styles/theme.css';
```

### 2. shadcn/ui initialiseren

```bash
npx shadcn@latest init
```

Kies bij de setup:
- Style: **Default**
- Base color: **Slate** (wordt overschreven door theme.css)
- CSS variables: **Yes**

De `theme.css` overschrijft alle shadcn default-kleuren via CSS custom properties. Geen extra configuratie nodig.

### 3. Tailwind configuratie

`theme.css` registreert alle tokens via `@theme inline` — ze zijn direct beschikbaar als Tailwind utility classes:

```tsx
// Werkt direct:
className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground"
className="bg-surface-container-low"
className="bg-status-done"
className="bg-priority-critical"
```

### 4. Dark mode

Dark mode werkt via de `.dark` class op `<html>`:

```tsx
// components/theme-toggle.tsx
'use client'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'

export function ThemeToggle() {
  const [isDark, setIsDark] = useState(false)

  useEffect(() => {
    const stored = localStorage.getItem('theme')
    if (stored === 'dark') {
      document.documentElement.classList.add('dark')
      setIsDark(true)
    }
  }, [])

  const toggle = () => {
    document.documentElement.classList.toggle('dark')
    const next = !isDark
    setIsDark(next)
    localStorage.setItem('theme', next ? 'dark' : 'light')
  }

  return (
    <button onClick={toggle} className="text-muted-foreground hover:text-foreground">
      {isDark ? '☀️' : '🌙'}
    </button>
  )
}
```

---

## Kleurfilosofie

Drie hoofdrollen, elk met een semantische betekenis voor een Scrum-planner:

| Rol | Kleur | Betekenis | Gebruik in Scrum4Me |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Primary** | Blauw `#0061a4` | Productiviteit, vertrouwen | Primaire knoppen, actieve navigatie, Sprint Goal |
| **Secondary** | Paars `#5b5e71` | Planning, organisatie | Secundaire acties, filters, toolbar-items |
| **Tertiary** | Teal `#006874` | Voortgang, data | Voortgangsindicatoren, story-tellers, metrics |

Diepte wordt gecreëerd via **tonal elevation** (lichtere/donkerdere oppervlakken), niet via schaduwen.

---

## Surface Elevation System

Gebruik deze hiërarchie consequent — nooit `shadow-lg` voor diepte:

```
HOOGSTE ELEVATIE (voorgrond)
  surface-container-lowest   → dialogs, modals, popovers
  surface-container-low      → kaarten, panelen
  surface-container          → standaard container
  surface-container-high     → geneste containers
  surface-container-highest  → achtergrondcontainers
LAAGSTE ELEVATIE (achtergrond)
  background                 → app-achtergrond
```

### In Scrum4Me specifiek

| Element | Surface token |
|---|---|
| App achtergrond | `bg-background` |
| Navigatiebalk | `bg-surface-container-low` |
| Gesplitst scherm (elk paneel) | `bg-surface-container-low` |
| PBI-rij | `bg-surface-container` |
| Geselecteerde PBI-rij | `bg-primary-container` |
| Story-blok | `bg-surface-container-low border border-border` |
| Story-blok (geselecteerd) | `bg-primary-container border border-primary` |
| Taakregel | `bg-surface-container` |
| Dialogs / modals | `bg-surface-container-lowest` |
| Slide-over (story detail) | `bg-surface-container-lowest` |
| Todo-item | `bg-surface-container` |
| Navigatiebar per paneel | `bg-surface-container-highest` |

---

## Statuskleur mapping

### Story- en taakstatus

Gebruik **altijd** icoon + tekst naast kleur (toegankelijkheid):

```tsx
// Status badge component
const statusConfig = {
  OPEN: {
    label: 'Open',
    className: 'bg-status-todo text-white',
  },
  IN_SPRINT: {
    label: 'In Sprint',
    className: 'bg-status-in-progress text-white',
  },
  DONE: {
    label: 'Done',
    className: 'bg-status-done text-white',
  },
}

// Taakstatus
const taskStatusConfig = {
  TO_DO: {
    label: 'To Do',
    className: 'bg-status-todo text-white',
  },
  IN_PROGRESS: {
    label: 'In Progress',
    className: 'bg-status-in-progress text-white',
  },
  DONE: {
    label: 'Done',
    className: 'bg-status-done text-white',
  },
}
```

### Prioriteitskleur mapping

```tsx
const priorityConfig = {
  1: {
    label: 'Kritiek',
    className: 'bg-priority-critical text-white',
    borderClassName: 'border-l-4 border-priority-critical',
  },
  2: {
    label: 'Hoog',
    className: 'bg-priority-high text-white',
    borderClassName: 'border-l-4 border-priority-high',
  },
  3: {
    label: 'Middel',
    className: 'bg-priority-medium text-white',
    borderClassName: 'border-l-4 border-priority-medium',
  },
  4: {
    label: 'Laag',
    className: 'bg-priority-low text-white',
    borderClassName: 'border-l-4 border-priority-low',
  },
}
```

### Story-activiteitenlog

```tsx
const logTypeConfig = {
  IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN: {
    label: 'Implementatieplan',
    className: 'bg-info-container text-info-container-foreground border-l-4 border-info',
  },
  TEST_RESULT: {
    PASSED: {
      label: 'Tests geslaagd',
      className: 'bg-success-container text-success-container-foreground border-l-4 border-success',
    },
    FAILED: {
      label: 'Tests mislukt',
      className: 'bg-error-container text-error-container-foreground border-l-4 border-error',
    },
  },
  COMMIT: {
    label: 'Commit',
    className: 'bg-secondary-container text-secondary-container-foreground border-l-4 border-secondary',
  },
}
```

## shadcn/ui componenten — gebruik in Scrum4Me

Alle shadcn-componenten gebruiken automatisch het MD3-kleurensysteem. Hieronder de aanbevolen varianten per context.

### Button

```tsx
import { Button } from '@/components/ui/button'

// Primaire actie (Sprint starten, PBI aanmaken, Opslaan)
<Button>Sprint starten</Button>

// Secundaire actie (Annuleren, Filters, Exporteren)
<Button variant="secondary">Annuleren</Button>

// Destructieve actie (Verwijderen, Archiveren)
<Button variant="destructive">Verwijderen</Button>

// Ghost (icon-knoppen in navigatiebar)
<Button variant="ghost" size="icon">
  <PlusIcon className="h-4 w-4" />
</Button>

// Outline (minder urgente acties)
<Button variant="outline">Details bekijken</Button>
```

### Badge (status en prioriteit)

```tsx
import { Badge } from '@/components/ui/badge'

// Gebruik custom className voor MD3-kleuren
// shadcn Badge variant="secondary" is ook bruikbaar voor neutrale badges

<Badge className="bg-status-done text-white">Done</Badge>
<Badge className="bg-priority-critical text-white">Kritiek</Badge>
<Badge className="bg-status-in-progress text-white">In Sprint</Badge>

// Neutrale info badge (bijv. "3 taken")
<Badge variant="secondary">3 taken</Badge>
```

**PBI-status (READY / BLOCKED / DONE):** hergebruikt bestaande tokens —
`status-todo` voor READY, `status-blocked` voor BLOCKED, `status-done` voor
DONE. Centraal gedefinieerd in `components/shared/pbi-status-select.tsx`
(`PBI_STATUS_LABELS`, `PBI_STATUS_COLORS`); importeer die in plaats van
kleuren ad-hoc te kopiëren.

### Dialog (bevestigingsdialogen)

```tsx
import {
  AlertDialog,
  AlertDialogAction,
  AlertDialogCancel,
  AlertDialogContent,
  AlertDialogDescription,
  AlertDialogFooter,
  AlertDialogHeader,
  AlertDialogTitle,
} from '@/components/ui/alert-dialog'

// Standaard bevestigingsdialoog voor verwijderacties
<AlertDialogContent className="bg-surface-container-lowest">
  <AlertDialogHeader>
    <AlertDialogTitle>PBI verwijderen?</AlertDialogTitle>
    <AlertDialogDescription>
      Dit verwijdert ook alle gekoppelde stories en taken. Deze actie is niet ongedaan te maken.
    </AlertDialogDescription>
  </AlertDialogHeader>
  <AlertDialogFooter>
    <AlertDialogCancel>Annuleren</AlertDialogCancel>
    <AlertDialogAction className="bg-destructive text-destructive-foreground">
      Verwijderen
    </AlertDialogAction>
  </AlertDialogFooter>
</AlertDialogContent>
```

### Sheet (story detail slide-over)

```tsx
import { Sheet, SheetContent, SheetHeader, SheetTitle } from '@/components/ui/sheet'

<Sheet>
  <SheetContent
    side="right"
    className="w-[480px] bg-surface-container-lowest border-l border-border"
  >
    <SheetHeader>
      <SheetTitle className="text-foreground">{story.title}</SheetTitle>
    </SheetHeader>
    {/* story detail inhoud */}
  </SheetContent>
</Sheet>
```

### Input en Textarea

```tsx
import { Input } from '@/components/ui/input'
import { Textarea } from '@/components/ui/textarea'

// shadcn Input gebruikt --input-background automatisch uit theme.css
<Input
  placeholder="PBI titel"
  className="bg-input-background border-border focus:ring-primary"
/>

<Textarea
  placeholder="Omschrijving (optioneel)"
  className="bg-input-background border-border focus:ring-primary resize-none"
/>
```

### Select (prioriteit dropdown)

```tsx
import {
  Select,
  SelectContent,
  SelectItem,
  SelectTrigger,
  SelectValue,
} from '@/components/ui/select'

<Select>
  <SelectTrigger className="bg-input-background border-border">
    <SelectValue placeholder="Prioriteit" />
  </SelectTrigger>
  <SelectContent className="bg-surface-container-lowest border-border">
    <SelectItem value="1">
      <span className="flex items-center gap-2">
        <span className="w-2 h-2 rounded-full bg-priority-critical" />
        Kritiek
      </span>
    </SelectItem>
    <SelectItem value="2">
      <span className="flex items-center gap-2">
        <span className="w-2 h-2 rounded-full bg-priority-high" />
        Hoog
      </span>
    </SelectItem>
    <SelectItem value="3">
      <span className="flex items-center gap-2">
        <span className="w-2 h-2 rounded-full bg-priority-medium" />
        Middel
      </span>
    </SelectItem>
    <SelectItem value="4">
      <span className="flex items-center gap-2">
        <span className="w-2 h-2 rounded-full bg-priority-low" />
        Laag
      </span>
    </SelectItem>
  </SelectContent>
</Select>
```

### Skeleton (loading states)

```tsx
import { Skeleton } from '@/components/ui/skeleton'

// PBI lijst skeleton
function PbiListSkeleton() {
  return (
    <div className="space-y-2 p-4">
      {Array.from({ length: 5 }).map((_, i) => (
        <Skeleton key={i} className="h-12 w-full bg-surface-container-high" />
      ))}
    </div>
  )
}

// Story blokken skeleton
function StoryGridSkeleton() {
  return (
    <div className="flex flex-wrap gap-3 p-4">
      {Array.from({ length: 6 }).map((_, i) => (
        <Skeleton key={i} className="h-24 w-[10%] min-w-[100px] bg-surface-container-high" />
      ))}
    </div>
  )
}
```

### Tooltip (demo-gebruiker write-protection)

```tsx
import { Tooltip, TooltipContent, TooltipProvider, TooltipTrigger } from '@/components/ui/tooltip'

// Gebruik voor alle uitgeschakelde knoppen bij demo-gebruiker
function DemoProtectedButton({ children, isDemo, onClick, ...props }) {
  if (!isDemo) {
    return <Button onClick={onClick} {...props}>{children}</Button>
  }

  return (
    <TooltipProvider>
      <Tooltip>
        <TooltipTrigger asChild>
          <span>
            <Button disabled {...props}>{children}</Button>
          </span>
        </TooltipTrigger>
        <TooltipContent className="bg-surface-container-lowest border-border">
          <p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground">Niet beschikbaar in demo-modus</p>
        </TooltipContent>
      </Tooltip>
    </TooltipProvider>
  )

## MD3 Color Scheme

## Color Philosophy

This color scheme follows Material Design 3 principles with three main color roles optimized for productivity software:

- **Primary (Blue)** - Represents productivity, trust, and professionalism. Used for main actions and navigation.
- **Secondary (Purple)** - Represents planning and organization. Used for supporting UI elements.
- **Tertiary (Teal)** - Represents progress and data visualization. Used for highlights and metrics.

The system uses **tonal elevation** instead of shadows to create depth, providing a modern, clean interface suitable for extended desktop work sessions.

## Surface Elevation System

Material Design 3 uses **tonal elevation** to create depth. Higher surfaces are lighter (in light mode) or darker (in dark mode).

### Hierarchy (from highest to lowest elevation)

1. **surface-container-lowest** - Dialogs, modals, popovers
2. **surface-container-low** - Cards, panels, elevated containers
3. **surface-container** - Default container background
4. **surface-container-high** - Nested containers, grouped elements
5. **surface-container-highest** - Background-level containers

### Tailwind Usage

```tsx
bg-surface-container-lowest
bg-surface-container-low
bg-surface-container
bg-surface-container-high
bg-surface-container-highest
```

---

## Implementation Guide

### Setting Up the Color System

The color system is defined in `/src/styles/theme.css`. All colors use CSS custom properties (variables) for easy theming.

### Tailwind CSS Configuration

All color tokens are automatically available as Tailwind classes through the `@theme inline` directive:

```css
/* Colors are available as: */
bg-primary
text-primary-foreground
border-primary-container
bg-surface-container-low
bg-status-in-progress
bg-priority-high
/* etc. */
```

### Dark Mode Toggle

Toggle dark mode with JavaScript:

```tsx
// Toggle dark mode
document.documentElement.classList.toggle('dark');

// Set dark mode
document.documentElement.classList.add('dark');

// Set light mode
document.documentElement.classList.remove('dark');

// React component example
function DarkModeToggle() {
  const [isDark, setIsDark] = useState(false);

  const toggleDark = () => {
    setIsDark(!isDark);
    document.documentElement.classList.toggle('dark');
  };

  return (
    <button onClick={toggleDark}>
      {isDark ? '☀️ Light Mode' : '🌙 Dark Mode'}
    </button>
  );
}
```

### Using with shadcn Components

All shadcn/ui components work seamlessly with this color system. The legacy color tokens (card, popover, muted, accent, destructive) are mapped to appropriate MD3 colors.

```tsx
// shadcn Button component automatically uses the color system
<Button>Primary Action</Button>
<Button variant="secondary">Secondary Action</Button>
<Button variant="destructive">Delete</Button>
<Button variant="outline">Outlined</Button>
```

---

## Accessibility

### Contrast Ratios

All color combinations meet **WCAG AA** standards:

- **Normal text**: Minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratio
- **Large text**: Minimum 3:1 contrast ratio
- **UI components**: Minimum 3:1 contrast ratio

### Color Blindness Considerations

The color system is designed to be distinguishable for users with common types of color blindness:

1. **Status colors** use distinct hues that remain distinguishable in deuteranopia, protanopia, and tritanopia
2. **Priority levels** use a progression from cool (low) to warm (high) colors
3. **All status indicators** should include text labels, not just color

### Best Practices for Accessibility

```tsx
// ✅ Good: Color + Icon + Text
<span className="bg-status-done text-white px-3 py-1 rounded-full">
  <CheckIcon className="w-4 h-4 inline" />
  Done
</span>

// ❌ Bad: Color only
<span className="w-4 h-4 bg-status-done rounded-full" />

// ✅ Good: Semantic HTML + ARIA
<button
  className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground"
  aria-label="Start new sprint"
>
  Start Sprint
</button>

// ✅ Good: Status with aria-label
<div
  className="bg-status-blocked"
  role="status"
  aria-label="This item is blocked"
>
  Blocked
</div>
```

---

## Best Practices

### 1. Use Surface Elevation for Depth

❌ **Don't use shadows for elevation**
```tsx
<div className="shadow-lg">Card</div>
```

✅ **Do use surface tones**
```tsx
<div className="bg-surface-container-low">Card</div>
```

### 2. Use Container Variants for Lower Emphasis

❌ **Don't reduce opacity**
```tsx
<button className="bg-primary opacity-50">Secondary Action</button>
```

✅ **Do use container variants**
```tsx
<button className="bg-primary-container text-primary-container-foreground">
  Secondary Action
</button>
```

### 3. Consistent Status Colors

❌ **Don't use arbitrary colors**
```tsx
<span className="bg-green-500">Complete</span>
<span className="bg-emerald-600">Finished</span>
```

✅ **Do use semantic status colors**
```tsx
<span className="bg-status-done">Complete</span>
<span className="bg-status-done">Finished</span>
```

### 4. Semantic Color Usage

❌ **Don't use colors for decoration only**
```tsx
<div className="bg-error">This is important information</div>
```

✅ **Do use colors for their semantic meaning**
```tsx
<div className="bg-error text-error-foreground">
  Error: Failed to save changes
</div>

<div className="bg-info text-info-foreground">
  This is important information
</div>
```

### 5. Proper Text Contrast

❌ **Don't forget foreground colors**
```tsx
<button className="bg-primary">Click me</button>
```

✅ **Do include foreground colors**
```tsx
<button className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground">Click me</button>
```

### 6. Layering and Nesting

When nesting containers, move down the elevation scale:

```tsx
<div className="bg-surface-container-low p-6">
  {/* Outer container */}

  <div className="bg-surface-container p-4">
    {/* Inner container - lower elevation */}

    <div className="bg-surface-container-high p-3">
      {/* Deepest container - lowest elevation */}
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
```

### 7. Interactive States

```tsx
// Buttons with hover states
<button className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground hover:opacity-90 transition-opacity">
  Click me
</button>

// Cards with hover states
<div className="bg-card border border-border hover:border-primary transition-colors cursor-pointer">
  Interactive card
</div>

// Focus states (automatically handled by theme)
<input className="border border-border focus:ring-2 focus:ring-primary" />
```
