Description

Implement comprehensive user experience and interface design capabilities to enhance Nanocoder's interface sophistication and user interaction patterns. Currently, Nanocoder has basic UI components with simple text-based displays and limited interface customization. The system needs advanced UI components, responsive design capabilities, theme customization, adaptive interaction patterns, and intelligent interface adaptation to match industry-leading CLI coding agentic tools.

The feature will implement:

  • Advanced UI component library with responsive design capabilities
  • Component-based UI framework with theme customization
  • Adaptive interaction patterns with context-aware features
  • Intelligent interface adaptation with multi-modal input handling
  • Advanced navigation systems with context-aware adaptation

Use Case

Current Problem:

  • Basic UI components with limited styling options
  • No responsive design for different terminal sizes
  • Static interface without theme customization
  • Simple interaction patterns without context awareness
  • Basic navigation without advanced features

Target Scenarios:

  1. Responsive UI: Interface adapts to different terminal sizes and layouts
  2. Theme Customization: User-configurable interface themes and styling
  3. Context-aware Interactions: Interface adapts based on conversation context
  4. Advanced Navigation: Multi-level navigation with history management
  5. Intelligent Adaptation: Interface learns and adapts to user preferences

Proposed Solution

Phase 1: Foundation - UI Component Library (2-3 weeks)

  • Implement advanced UI component system with enhanced styling
  • Add responsive design capabilities with breakpoint management
  • Create AdvancedMessageBox and other enhanced components
  • Implement ResponsiveLayout system with adaptive layouts
  • Maintain backward compatibility with existing UI components

Phase 2: Interface Framework - Component-based UI System (3-4 weeks)

  • Create UIComponentFramework for component management
  • Implement ThemeSystem with customization capabilities
  • Add theme registration and application system
  • Create component registry with dynamic loading
  • Enhance with advanced layout management features

Phase 3: User Experience - Adaptive Interaction Patterns (4-5 weeks)

  • Implement AdaptiveInteractionManager for pattern selection
  • Add ContextAwareInput with intelligent suggestions
  • Create interaction pattern registry with context analysis
  • Implement multi-modal input handling
  • Add interaction history and learning capabilities

Phase 4: Advanced UX - Intelligent Interface Adaptation (3-4 weeks)

  • Create AdvancedNavigationSystem with history management
  • Implement IntelligentInterfaceAdapter with learning
  • Add navigation stack with back/forward functionality
  • Create adaptation strategy selection and learning
  • Enhance with user preference integration
