📄 Documentation & Reference Models
This /docs folder contains Product Requirements Documents (PRD), data model definitions, and Firebase schema references for the Karaoke App project.
These files are intended for:
- 📃 Developers reviewing the business logic and architecture.
- 🤖 AI tools like Cursor or Copilot that reference documentation for context-aware coding.
- 📝 Project planning, architecture decisions, and future enhancements.
- 🚀 Building the app from scratch with any framework/platform combination.
Contents

Complete Product Requirements Document — platform-agnostic business logic, technical specifications, data flows, service APIs, component architecture, error handling, and performance optimizations. Self-guiding for AI implementation. |
types.ts |
Reference TypeScript interfaces used for modeling app objects. Not imported into app runtime code. |
firebase_schema.json |
Example Firebase Realtime Database structure for understanding data relationships and CRUD operations. |
platforms/web/design/ |
Web UI/UX Design Assets — mockups and visual references for web platform features. |
🚀 How to Use This Documentation
For AI-Assisted Development:
Simply say "Read this PRD" in any new chat. The PRD contains:
- Self-guiding instructions for AI implementation
- Complete technical specifications for 100% accuracy
- Implementation questions to determine platform/framework choices
- Step-by-step build process with checklists
For Human Developers:
- Reference during implementation for business logic and data flows
- Guide for architecture decisions and technology choices
- Source of truth for all functional requirements
- Migration guide when switching frameworks/platforms
For New Implementations:
- Read the PRD completely - it contains comprehensive specifications
- Review design assets in
platforms/web/design/folder for visual reference - Answer implementation questions from Section 29
- Follow the implementation checklist for complete build process
- Preserve business logic while adapting UI to chosen framework
📋 Key Features of the Updated PRD
Platform-Agnostic Design:
- Core business logic completely separated from implementation details
- Firebase architecture and data models for any platform
- Cross-platform references to platform-specific PRDs
- Universal business rules that apply to all implementations
Complete Technical Specifications:
- Firebase data structure and relationships
- Business logic patterns and validation rules
- Real-time synchronization requirements
- User role permissions and access control
- Error handling scenarios and recovery patterns
- Performance requirements and optimization guidelines
Implementation Guide:
- Platform selection questions to determine technology stack
- 5-phase implementation checklist for complete builds
- Business logic preservation guidelines
- Critical success factors for accurate implementations
Design Assets:
- Visual mockups for all major features and screens
- Platform-specific designs (web, mobile, etc.)
- UX patterns and interaction flows
- Design system references for consistent implementation
🔄 Workflow for New Versions
When Creating New Implementations:
- Use the PRD as-is - it's designed for any framework/platform
- Reference design assets for visual guidance and UX patterns
- Follow the implementation guide in Section 29
- Preserve all business logic while adapting UI layer
- Test against specifications for 100% accuracy
When Updating the PRD:
- Keep platform-agnostic requirements intact
- Add new implementation details to appropriate sections
- Update toolset sections with new technology choices
- Maintain self-guiding nature for AI implementation
When Migrating Platforms:
- Keep all business logic from core requirements
- Replace only implementation details in platform-specific sections
- Add new platform sections following the established pattern
- Update toolset rationale for new technology choices
Important Notes
- ✅ These files are not intended for direct import or use in application runtime.
- ✅ Validation logic and data models here serve as development references only.
- ✅ Any updates to business logic, data flow, or app architecture should be reflected here for documentation purposes.
- ✅ AI tools may use this information to assist with code generation but will not access
/srcdirectly. - ✅ The PRD is self-guiding - it contains all instructions needed for AI implementation.
- ✅ 100% accuracy achievable when following the complete specifications.
