ln-721-frontend-restructure

Type: L3 Worker Category: 7XX Project Bootstrap

Frontend structure worker with two modes: SCAFFOLD (generate minimal React project from template) or RESTRUCTURE (migrate monolith to component-based architecture).

Mode Selection

Mode When Input Output

SCAFFOLD CREATE pipeline — no existing frontend Target stack config from ln-720 Minimal React + Vite project (~7 files)

RESTRUCTURE TRANSFORM pipeline — existing frontend found Monolithic React source Component-based architecture

Purpose & Scope

Aspect Description

Input Target stack config (SCAFFOLD) or monolithic React source (RESTRUCTURE)

Output Minimal project (SCAFFOLD) or component-based architecture (RESTRUCTURE)

Framework React + TypeScript + Vite

Scope boundaries:

  • SCAFFOLD: generates minimal starter files, no business logic

  • RESTRUCTURE: restructures existing code, does not add new functionality

  • Works with React + TypeScript projects

  • Applies transformation rules from reference files

Workflow

SCAFFOLD Mode (CREATE pipeline)

Phase Name Actions Output

S1 Generate Create minimal React + Vite + TypeScript project files ~7 starter files

S2 Verify Check file structure, validate configs Valid project skeleton

RESTRUCTURE Mode (TRANSFORM pipeline)

Phase Name Actions Output

1 Analyze Scan source, detect component types, measure complexity File inventory, complexity metrics

2 Plan Apply split thresholds, calculate file moves, detect conflicts Migration plan

3 Execute Create folders, extract content, update imports Restructured files

4 Verify Run build, check imports, validate structure Build success report

SCAFFOLD Mode Phases

Phase S1: Generate Starter Files

Create minimal React + Vite + TypeScript project.

File Purpose

package.json

Dependencies: react, react-dom, typescript, vite, @vitejs/plugin-react

vite.config.ts

Vite config with React plugin, port, proxy settings

tsconfig.json

Strict TypeScript config with path aliases

index.html

Entry HTML with root div

src/main.tsx

React entry point with StrictMode

src/App.tsx

Root App component with router placeholder

src/index.css

Base styles (reset, variables, layout)

Phase S2: Verify Scaffold

Check Method Expected

All files created File existence check 7 files present

package.json valid JSON parse No syntax errors

tsconfig.json valid JSON parse No syntax errors

No hardcoded values Content scan Project name from config, not hardcoded

RESTRUCTURE Mode Phases

Phase 1: Analyze

Scan current frontend structure and classify components.

Step Action Reference

1.1 Scan all .tsx and .ts files in source —

1.2 Measure file complexity (lines, hooks, types) transformation_rules.md

1.3 Classify components by category component_patterns.md

1.4 Build import dependency graph import_strategy.md

Output: Component inventory with classifications and metrics.

Phase 2: Plan

Generate migration plan based on analysis.

Step Action Reference

2.1 Apply split thresholds to identify files to restructure transformation_rules.md

2.2 Calculate target paths for each file react_folder_structure.md

2.3 Identify import updates needed import_strategy.md

2.4 Detect potential conflicts (name collisions, circular deps) —

Output: Migration plan with Before/After mapping.

Phase 3: Execute

Apply transformations in correct order.

Step Action Notes

3.1 Create directory structure All target folders

3.2 Extract types to types.ts

Types have no dependencies

3.3 Extract constants to constants.ts

Constants depend only on types

3.4 Extract hooks to hooks.ts

Hooks depend on types, constants

3.5 Extract sub-components Components use all above

3.6 Create barrel exports (index.ts ) For clean imports

3.7 Update all import paths Fix references

Order is critical: Execute in sequence to avoid broken imports.

Phase 4: Verify

Validate restructured project.

Check Command Expected

TypeScript compilation npx tsc --noEmit

No errors

Build npm run build

Success

No orphan files Manual check Source location empty

Imports resolve Build success No module not found errors

Transformation Summary

Transformation Before State After State

Component Split Single file >300 lines Feature folder with co-located files

Type Extraction Inline interfaces Separate types.ts

Constant Extraction Inline magic values Separate constants.ts

Hook Extraction Inline useState/useEffect Separate hooks.ts or shared hooks

UI Component Move Scattered in features Centralized in components/ui/

Layout Component Move Mixed with features Centralized in components/layout/

Critical Rules

  • Mode Awareness: SCAFFOLD creates from template; RESTRUCTURE transforms existing — never mix

  • Single Responsibility: Handle only frontend structure, no backend changes

  • Idempotent: Can re-run without duplicate files or corruption

  • Build Verification: Must verify build passes after changes (RESTRUCTURE: npm run build )

  • Preserve Functionality: No behavioral changes, only structural (RESTRUCTURE mode)

  • Backup Strategy: Do not delete source files until verification passes (RESTRUCTURE mode)

  • Import Consistency: Use path aliases for shared, relative for co-located

Definition of Done

SCAFFOLD mode:

  • All 7 starter files generated

  • package.json and tsconfig.json valid

  • No hardcoded project names (uses config values)

RESTRUCTURE mode:

  • All source files analyzed and classified

  • Migration plan generated with Before/After mapping

  • Directory structure created per template

  • All extractions completed (types, constants, hooks, components)

  • Import paths updated throughout project

  • npm run build passes successfully

  • No orphan imports or missing files

  • Barrel exports created for shared folders

Risk Mitigation

Risk Detection Mitigation

Build failure after restructure npm run build fails Rollback: restore from source, investigate specific error

Missing imports Module not found errors Scan all imports before/after, update missed paths

Circular dependencies Build warning or runtime error Analyze dependency graph, break cycles by extracting shared code

Lost functionality Tests fail or UI broken Run existing tests before/after transformation

Name collisions Duplicate export names Rename with feature prefix before moving

Reference Files

File Purpose

references/transformation_rules.md

Split thresholds, extraction rules, transformation order

references/component_patterns.md

Component classification by category

references/import_strategy.md

Import update rules, path aliases, barrel exports

references/react_folder_structure.md
