Humanet Development Roadmap

✅ Completed Features

  • Backend Infrastructure: Express + TypeScript + MongoDB
  • Authentication System: JWT with HttpOnly cookies, bcrypt password hashing
  • Security Layer: Rate limiting, CORS, input validation, security headers
  • User Management: Registration, login, profiles with karma system
  • Idea System: Full CRUD with upvoting, forking, domain categorization
  • Comment System: Threaded comments with full CRUD operations
  • Database Layer: Mongoose models with proper relationships and indexing
  • Development Tools: Database seeding with realistic test data, Husky + lint-staged, Storybook, enhanced dev scripts

🚧 In Progress

  • Frontend Polish: Completing shadcn/ui component implementation
  • Comment System UI/UX: Redesigning comment interface with proper shadcn/ui components 🚧
  • Search Functionality: Frontend interface for existing backend search
  • User Experience: Loading states, error handling, toast notifications

📋 Next Priority Items (Backend-First Approach)

  • 🚀 CORE BACKEND: Idea Repository File System with .humanet folder structure
  • 🚀 CORE BACKEND: Fork/Merge operations and family tree logic
  • 🚀 CORE BACKEND: Domain matching and expert notification system
  • 🚀 CORE BACKEND: Advanced search with AI-powered discovery
  • 🔧 DEVELOPMENT: Unit testing for critical business logic
  • 🎨 FRONTEND: UI polish after core backend features are complete

🎯 Implementation Timeline & Priorities
