+# Design System Documentation - Project Progress
+
+**Project Goal**: Create comprehensive, state-of-the-art design system documentation with interactive demos
+
+**Start Date**: November 2, 2025
+**Status**: Phase 1 Complete ✅ | Phase 2 Pending
+
+---
+
+## Project Overview
+
+### Vision
+Create a world-class design system documentation that:
+- Follows Pareto principle (80% coverage with 20% content)
+- Includes AI-specific code generation guidelines
+- Provides interactive, copy-paste examples
+- Has multiple learning paths (Speedrun → Comprehensive Mastery)
+- Maintains perfect internal coherence and link integrity
+
+### Key Principles
+1. **Pareto-Efficiency** - 80/20 rule applied throughout
+2. **AI-Optimized** - Dedicated guidelines for AI code generation
+3. **Interconnected** - All docs cross-reference each other
+4. **Comprehensive** - Every pattern has examples and anti-patterns
+5. **State-of-the-Art** - Top-notch content quality

+
+## Key Decisions Made
+
+1. **Documentation Structure**
+   - Decided to create subfolder `docs/design-system/` instead of root-level files
+   - Numbered files for clear progression (00-99)
+   - Separate AI guidelines document (08-ai-guidelines.md)
+   - Quick reference as 99-reference.md (bookmark destination)
+
+2. **Learning Paths**
+   - Created 6 different learning paths for different user needs
+   - Speedrun (5 min) → Comprehensive Mastery (1 hour)
+   - Specialized paths for component development, layouts, forms, AI setup
+
+3. **Content Philosophy**
+   - Pareto principle: 80% coverage with 20% content
+   - 5 essential layouts cover 80% of needs
+   - Decision trees for common questions
+   - Before/after examples showing anti-patterns
+
+4. **AI Optimization**
+   - Dedicated 08-ai-guidelines.md with strict rules
+   - ALWAYS/NEVER sections for clarity
+   - Component templates for AI code generation
+   - Integration instructions for Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot
+
+5. **Link Strategy**
+   - Internal doc links: Relative paths (`./02-components.md`)
+   - Demo page links: Absolute routes (`/dev/components`)
+   - Anchor links for specific sections (`#color-system-oklch`)
+   - All links verified during review
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+### Immediate: Begin Phase 2
+
+1. **Create utility components** (`BeforeAfter.tsx`, `CodeSnippet.tsx`, `Example.tsx`)
+   - Reusable across all demo pages
+   - Consistent styling
+   - Copy-paste functionality
+
+2. **Enhance /dev/page.tsx** (hub)
+   - Landing page for all demos
+   - Quick navigation
+
+3. **Create demo pages in order**
+   - `/dev/components/page.tsx` (most referenced)
+   - `/dev/layouts/page.tsx`
+   - `/dev/spacing/page.tsx`
+   - `/dev/forms/page.tsx`
+
+### Future Enhancements (Post-Phase 2)
+
+- Add search functionality to documentation
+- Create video tutorials referencing docs
+- Add print-friendly CSS for documentation
+- Create PDF versions of key guides
+- Add contribution guidelines for design system updates

+
+## Lessons Learned
+
+1. **Ultrathink Required**
+   - Initial plan needed refinement after user feedback
+   - Comprehensive review caught issues early
+
+2. **Time Estimates Removed**
+   - User preference: No time estimates in section headers
+   - Focus on content quality over reading speed
+
+3. **Link Verification Critical**
+   - Agent review caught broken cross-references
+   - Incomplete imports in examples
+   - Fixed before Phase 2 begins
+
+4. **Documentation Coherence**
+   - Cross-referencing between docs creates cohesive system
+   - Multiple entry points (learning paths) serve different needs
+   - Quick reference (99-reference.md) serves as bookmark destination
