## Strategy: WordPress-in-React

## Strategy: Hybrid React + WordPress Content
|

|

This app uses a "render what WordPress built" approach:
|
||||
The app uses a **hybrid approach**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Page content** is raw Elementor HTML from WordPress (`src/data/*.html`)
|
||||
2. **Injected via** `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` in page components
|
||||
3. **Styling** arrives from two places:
|
||||
- Build-time CSS imports (`src/css/*.css`) — Elementor's page-specific CSS
|
||||
- Runtime `<link>` tags (`index.html`) — Theme stylesheets from `public/wp-content/themes/rakar/`
|
||||
1. **Componentized pages** (Contact, Project, ServiceDetail) use proper React section components with structured data — no HTML strings.
|
||||
2. **Transitional pages** (Home, About, Services) render raw Elementor HTML from `src/data/*.html` files, parsed at runtime by `html-react-parser` via `SafeHtml.jsx` — **no `dangerouslySetInnerHTML`** anywhere in the app.
|
||||
3. **Styling** comes from two places:
|
||||
- Build-time CSS imports (`src/css/*.css`) — Elementor's page-specific CSS bundled by Vite
|
||||
- Runtime assets from `public/wp-content/` — theme stylesheets, fonts, images
|
||||
4. **Behavior** comes from the original Rakar theme JS loaded via `<script>` tags in `index.html`
|
||||
5. **Theme re-initialization** on route change is handled by `useLayoutInit.js` via `requestAnimationFrame` polling

@@ -63,6 +83,66 @@ This app uses a "render what WordPress built" approach:
|
||||
|
||||
Elementor pages are self-contained: each page has a unique CSS class (`.elementor-<postId>`) and the HTML references it. By loading ALL page CSS at once and the correct page HTML per route, we get pixel-perfect WordPress output without running PHP.
|
||||
|
||||
### Migration Path
|
||||
|
||||
The codebase is in active migration from "raw Elementor HTML" to "proper React components":
|
||||
|
||||
| Page | Approach | Status |
|
||||
|------|----------|--------|
|
||||
| Contact | Full React components (ContactForm, ContactInfo, GoogleMap) | ✅ Complete |
|
||||
| Project | Full React components (ProjectFilterGrid) | ✅ Complete |
|
||||
| ServiceDetail | Structured data from `services.json` + React components | ✅ Complete |
|
||||
| Home | `SafeHtml` parsing `home-content.html` | 🔄 Transitional |
|
||||
| About | `SafeHtml` parsing `about-content.html` | 🔄 Transitional |
|
||||
| Services | `SafeHtml` parsing `service-content.html` | 🔄 Transitional |
|
||||
|
||||
## Section Components & Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
### Componentized Pages (Contact, Project, ServiceDetail)
|
||||
|
||||
These pages compose reusable section components rather than rendering raw HTML:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Contact.jsx
|
||||
├── Breadcrumb props: title, items[]
|
||||
├── SectionTitle props: subtitle, heading, alignment
|
||||
├── ContactInfo props: items[] ({ icon, label, value, link })
|
||||
├── ContactForm props: heading
|
||||
├── GoogleMap props: src, title
|
||||
└── Divider
|
||||
|
||||
ServiceDetail.jsx
|
||||
├── ServiceBreadcrumb props: title
|
||||
├── ServiceImage props: src, srcSet, width, height
|
||||
├── ServiceBody props: blocks[] (from services.json → contentBlocks)
|
||||
└── ServiceSidebar props: activeSlug (renders SERVICE_SIDEBAR_ITEMS from config.js)
|
||||
|
||||
Project.jsx
|
||||
└── ProjectFilterGrid (self-contained, reads project data from public/wp-content/)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
All section components return null/empty gracefully when props are missing — no hard crashes.
|
||||
|
||||
### SafeHtml Pages (Home, About, Services)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Home.jsx
|
||||
└── SafeHtml
|
||||
└── html-react-parser(require('home-content.html'))
|
||||
└── useNavFix(ref) — intercepts <a> clicks for SPA navigation
|
||||
|
||||
About.jsx (same pattern)
|
||||
Services.jsx (same pattern)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Central Configuration (`config.js`)
|
||||
|
||||
All magic values live in one file:
|
||||
- **Brand colors**: `BRAND_PRIMARY`, `BRAND_DARK`, `BRAND_NAVY` (from `.env` or defaults)
|
||||
- **WhatsApp**: `WHATSAPP_PHONE` (from `.env`)
|
||||
- **Routes**: `SPA_ROUTES`, `PAGE_IDS` (path → WordPress post ID)
|
||||
- **Services**: `POST_ID_TO_SLUG`, `SERVICE_SIDEBAR_ITEMS`, `MENU_ITEM_IDS`
|
||||

|

|
||||
## Style Organization
|
||||
|
||||
### CSS Import Order (in `main.jsx`)
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
import './css/variables.css' // 1. Brand color variables (first so everything else can use them)
|
||||
import './css/kit.css' // 2. Elementor kit global styles
|
||||
import './css/theme.css' // 3. Rakar theme overrides
|
||||
import './css/layout.css' // 4. Header + Footer layout
|
||||
import './css/pages.css' // 5. Main page styles
|
||||
import './css/services.css' // 6. Service detail styles
|
||||
import './css/dynamic.css' // 7. Dynamic overrides using var(--brand-*) with fallbacks
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Order matters** — `variables.css` is first so `dynamic.css` (which uses `var(--brand-*)`) resolves correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
### Brand Color System
|
||||
|
||||
Colors are defined once in `.env`, flow through `config.js`, and land in CSS custom properties:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
.env → config.js → variables.css
|
||||
VITE_BRAND_PRIMARY → BRAND_PRIMARY → --brand-primary
|
||||
VITE_BRAND_DARK → BRAND_DARK → --brand-dark
|
||||
VITE_BRAND_NAVY → BRAND_NAVY → --brand-navy
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`dynamic.css` uses these variables with fallbacks (e.g., `var(--brand-primary, #FA2D39)`) so it works even if variables.css is somehow absent.
|
||||
|
||||
### Regenerating Combined CSS
|
||||
|
||||
After editing individual page files in `src/css/pages/`:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cat src/css/pages/page-*.css > src/css/pages.css
|
||||
cat src/css/pages/service-*.css > src/css/services.css
|
||||
```

||||
## Updating Content
|
||||
|
||||
### HTML-based pages (Home, About, Services)
|
||||
1. Download updated HTML from WordPress
|
||||
2. Replace the corresponding file in `src/data/`
|
||||
3. Update the CSS in `src/css/pages/` if Elementor page CSS changed
|
||||
4. Rebuild: `npm run build`
|
||||
|
||||
### Componentized pages (Contact, Project, ServiceDetail)
|
||||
1. Edit the relevant section component in `src/components/sections/`
|
||||
2. For service detail content, edit `src/data/services.json`
|
||||
3. For contact data, edit `Contact.jsx` directly
|
||||
4. Rebuild: `npm run build`
|
||||
|
||||
### Brand Colors
|
||||

## CSS Organization
|
||||
The build produces **0 errors, 0 warnings**. If you see warnings, fix them before deploying.
|
||||
|
||||
CSS files in `src/css/` are imported at build time via `main.jsx`. They become part of the single `index-*.css` bundle:
|
||||
## Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
// main.jsx
|
||||
import './css/kit.css'
|
||||
import './css/theme.css'
|
||||
import './css/layout.css'
|
||||
import './css/pages.css'
|
||||
import './css/services.css'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To update styles:
|
||||
- **Theme overrides** → edit `theme.css`
|
||||
- **Header/Footer layout** → edit `layout.css`
|
||||
- **Individual page styles** → edit `pages/page-<id>.css`, then regenerate `pages.css`
|
||||
- **Service detail styles** → edit `pages/service-<id>.css`, then regenerate `services.css`
|
||||
|
||||
### Regenerating Combined CSS
|
||||
|
||||
After editing individual page files:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cat src/css/pages/page-*.css > src/css/pages.css
|
||||
cat src/css/pages/service-*.css > src/css/services.css
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Updating Content
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download updated HTML from WordPress
|
||||
2. Replace the corresponding file in `src/data/`
|
||||
3. Update the CSS in `src/css/pages/` if Elementor page CSS changed
|
||||
4. Rebuild: `npm run build`
|
||||
5. Deploy: restart Python server with new `dist/`
