Marcel a1b89670c0 docs(legibility): add 18 per-domain README.md files (DOC-6)
Backend (9): document, person, tag, user, geschichte, notification,
ocr, audit, dashboard.
Frontend (8): document, person, tag, user, geschichte, notification,
ocr, shared.
OCR service (1): ocr-service/README.md.

Each README covers: what the domain owns, explicit non-ownership,
public surface (verified by grep against the codebase), internal
layout, and cross-domain dependencies.

Closes #400

3.3 KiB

shared (frontend)

Cross-domain utilities and UI primitives. Any file here is consumed by two or more domain folders and has no domain identity of its own.

Admission criteria (what belongs here)

A file belongs in shared/ if it meets all three conditions:

  1. No domain identity — it does not represent a Document, Person, Tag, etc.
  2. Consumed by ≥ 2 domain folders — or is framework infrastructure that every domain depends on.
  3. Generic — could work in a different SvelteKit project with zero business-logic changes.

If any condition fails, the file belongs in the domain folder of its primary consumer.

What this folder owns

Sub-folder / file Purpose
api.server.ts Typed openapi-fetch client factory — the standard entry point for all backend API calls in server-side load functions and actions
errors.ts Mirror of the backend ErrorCode enum + getErrorMessage() → Paraglide i18n key mapping
types.ts Cross-domain TypeScript interfaces
utils.ts Pure utility functions (date formatting, sorting, debounce)
relativeTime.ts Human-relative time formatting ("2 days ago")
primitives/ Generic UI components: BackButton.svelte, form inputs, pagination, layout shells
discussion/ Comment/mention editor shared by document/ and geschichte/
dashboard/ Family Pulse widget and recent-activity components assembled in the / route
hooks/ Svelte 5 reactive hooks: useTypeahead, useUnsavedWarning
services/ Generic client-side service helpers
actions/ Shared SvelteKit form action utilities
server/ Server-only shared utilities (load function helpers)
help/ Coach marks and empty-state components used across multiple domains

What does NOT belong here

  • Components owned by one domain — move to that domain's folder.
  • Domain-specific business logic — even if shared, it belongs in the owning domain's public surface.

Adding to shared/

If you need to add a file here, confirm it meets all three admission criteria. If it's domain-adjacent, check whether the owning domain should export it as part of its public surface instead.
