This pull request updates the project documentation to clarify the current status of deep linking and introduces comprehensive planning documentation for the upcoming Festival Log ("My Festival") feature. It emphasizes the pre-release context, allowing for optimal design choices without backward compatibility or migration concerns. The changes also provide a clear roadmap and status for major features.

Feature planning and status updates:

  • Updated the docs/README.md to reflect that deep linking is now "In Progress" (Phases 0-2 planned, implementation starting), and added detailed references for the new Festival Log feature, which is currently a proposal dependent on deep linking completion. Also clarified the status of other features and documentation. [1] [2] [3]

Deep linking documentation improvements:

  • Enhanced the deep linking design document (docs/planning/deep-linking/design.md) with explicit notes on the pre-release context, confirming no backward compatibility is needed, and listing the resulting implementation simplifications (e.g., no legacy URL handling or migration logic required). [1] [2]

Festival Log feature documentation:

  • Added a new, detailed design document for the Festival Log feature (docs/planning/festival-log/design.md), covering feature scope, data model, user experience, visual and interaction design, analytics, and implementation phases. The document highlights the pre-release advantage of designing the optimal structure from scratch.

Create comprehensive guides for incremental feature implementation:
- Implementation decisions with multiple-choice format
- Phase 0 foundation guide with complete specifications

Features planned:
- Festival linking (local, Phases 0-2)
- My Festival / Festival Log (local, Phases 3-4)
- Cloud sync (deferred to later, Phases 5-6)

Documentation includes:
- Multiple-choice decisions with pros/cons and recommendations
- Phase 0 detailed implementation guide (aims, deliverables, success criteria)
- Complete code examples and test specifications
- Definition of done checklists
- Verification procedures

No code changes in this commit - planning documentation only.
Reorganize implementation planning docs to follow the new docs/
organization (code/, planning/, processes/, tooling/).

Changes:
- Move Phase 0 guide to planning/deep-linking/phase-0-guide.md
- Create planning/festival-log/ directory for festival log feature
- Add festival-log/design.md with feature overview and decisions
- Add festival-log/implementation-plan.md with Phases 3-4 details

The festival-log docs follow the same pattern as deep-linking docs
(design.md, implementation-plan.md).

Status:
- deep-linking docs: 💡 Proposal (Phases 0-2)
- festival-log docs: 💡 Proposal (Phases 3-4, depends on deep-linking)

Still TODO:
- Clean up IMPLEMENTATION_DECISIONS.md from docs root
- Update docs/README.md to reference new planning docs
Remove old IMPLEMENTATION_DECISIONS.md (content migrated to feature-specific docs)
and update docs/README.md to reference the new planning documentation.

Changes:
- Delete docs/IMPLEMENTATION_DECISIONS.md (content now in planning/deep-linking/ and planning/festival-log/)
- Update docs/README.md:
  - Add planning/deep-linking/phase-0-guide.md reference
  - Add new Festival Log planning section with design.md and implementation-plan.md
  - Update status: deep-linking = 🚧 In Progress, festival-log = 💡 Proposal
  - Update Quick Reference section with new planning docs
  - Update Planning Docs status section

Documentation structure is now fully aligned with the new organization:
- docs/planning/deep-linking/ - Phases 0-2 (ready to implement)
- docs/planning/festival-log/ - Phases 3-4 (proposal, depends on deep-linking)
Record that the app is in pre-release mode with no existing users,
no saved data, and no shared URLs. This eliminates the need for
backward compatibility and migration code.

Key changes:
- Add pre-release context to design docs (deep-linking, festival-log)
- Remove all migration code from festival-log implementation plan
- Simplify StorageService (no v1→v2 migration needed)
- Remove migration tests from testing strategy
- Update manual testing checklist (remove migration items)
- Update README.md to reflect clean start

Impact on implementation:
- Phase 3 simplified: 4-6 hours (was 6-8 hours)
- Phase 1 simplified: 6-8 hours (was 8-10 hours)
- Total estimate: 22-29 hours (was 26-34 hours)
- Saves ~4-5 hours by skipping migration/compatibility code

This documentation will help future implementers understand why
certain decisions were made and why migration code was not needed.
- Task 3.4: Integration tests for data persistence (favorites, timestamps, festival-scoped data)
- Task 4.4: Integration tests for UI flows (add → tasted → log, multiple tastings, sort order)
- CI/CD integration for test-integration-flutter job
- Addresses Playwright limitation (can't interact with Flutter canvas widgets)
- Add Phase 2.5: Test Infrastructure Setup (Low complexity)
  - Task 2.5.1: Create mock festival data fixtures (test/fixtures/mock_festival_data.dart)
  - Task 2.5.2: Create integration test directory with README
  - Task 2.5.3: Update test/README.md with integration test instructions
- Replace time estimates with complexity ratings
  - Phase 3: Medium complexity (was 4-6 hours)
  - Phase 4: Medium-High complexity (was 6-8 hours)
- Update integration test examples to reference mock data
  - Sample IPA, Mock Stout, Test Pale Ale from fixtures
  - Clear comments indicating mock data usage
