🎯 Summary

This PR implements the complete solution for issue #2 by successfully moving and adapting the infinite depth tree functionality from the InfiniteDepthTreeWebUIPrototype vanilla JavaScript implementation to a modern React package.

🔗 Issue Reference

Fixes #2

✨ Key Features Implemented

  • 🌳 Infinite Depth Tree Rendering: Recursive React components support unlimited nesting levels
  • ⌨️ Keyboard Navigation: Arrow keys and mouse wheel navigation through tree items
  • 🔍 Real-time Search: Dynamic filtering with "/" hotkey to toggle search input
  • 🎯 Smart Selection: Auto-scroll and highlight selected items with smooth animations
  • 🎨 Customizable Architecture: Flexible prop system to replace default HTML elements
  • 📱 Responsive Design: Mobile-friendly layout with proper styling
  • 🔧 TypeScript Support: Complete type definitions and interfaces
  • 🪝 Navigation Hook: Reusable useTreeNavigation hook for advanced usage

🛠️ Technical Implementation

Core Components

  • DeepTree: Main component with navigation and search capabilities
  • TreeNode: Recursive component for rendering individual tree nodes
  • useTreeNavigation: Custom hook for keyboard/mouse navigation logic

Navigation Controls

  • ↑/↓ Arrow Keys: Navigate up/down through items
  • Mouse Wheel: Scroll-based navigation
  • / key: Toggle search input
  • ESC: Close search input
  • Click: Select items directly

Styling & Theming

  • Dark theme inspired by original prototype (#1F1F1F background, #EA7500 accent)
  • Smooth transitions and animations
  • Responsive breakpoints for mobile
  • Optional CSS file (styles.css) for quick styling

📦 Package Updates

  • Version: Bumped to 0.1.0 to reflect major feature additions
  • Description: Updated to reflect new navigation and search capabilities
  • Dependencies: Maintained existing peer dependencies (React 16+)
  • Build: TypeScript compilation working with proper type exports

📖 Documentation & Examples

Enhanced README

  • Complete API reference with all props documented
  • Usage examples from basic to advanced scenarios
  • Keyboard shortcuts reference
  • Styling guide with customization options

Interactive Examples

  • Basic Tree: Static tree rendering
  • Navigation Demo: Keyboard/mouse navigation with visual feedback
  • Search Demo: Real-time filtering functionality
  • Custom Components: Demonstrating component customization

🧪 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

import DeepTree, { DataNode } from 'react-deep-tree';

const data: DataNode[] = [
  {
    content: 'Root Item',
    children: [
      { content: 'Child 1' },
      { content: 'Child 2', children: [/* nested items */] }
    ]
  }
];

export default function App() {
  return <DeepTree data={data} />;
}

With Navigation & Search

<DeepTree
  data={data}
  enableNavigation={true}
  enableSearch={true}
  onNodeSelect={(node, index) => console.log('Selected:', node.content)}
/>

Custom Components

<DeepTree
  data={data}
  ListItem={MyCustomListItem}
  ContentFrame="span"
  TreeFrame="section"
  enableNavigation={true}
/>

✅ Test Plan

  • Basic tree rendering with nested data structures
  • Keyboard navigation (arrow keys, wheel scroll)
  • Search functionality with real-time filtering
  • TypeScript compilation and type checking
  • Component customization with different HTML elements
  • Mobile responsive design
  • Smooth animations and transitions
  • Auto-scroll to selected items
  • Example components and documentation

🔄 Compatibility

  • React: 16.13.1+ (peer dependency)
  • TypeScript: 3.9.7+ for development
  • Browser: Modern browsers with ES2015+ support
  • Mobile: Responsive design with touch-friendly interactions

📋 Migration Notes

This implementation maintains backward compatibility with the existing simple tree structure while adding powerful new features:

  • Existing DataNode interface unchanged (children property now optional)
  • Default behavior remains the same for basic usage
  • New features are opt-in via props
  • No breaking changes to existing API

This PR transforms the react-deep-tree package from a simple tree renderer into a powerful, interactive navigation component that faithfully adapts the innovative UI concepts from the InfiniteDepthTreeWebUIPrototype while leveraging React's component architecture and modern web development practices.
