Implementation Plan

Sub-PRD Implementation Order and Dependencies

The implementation will be broken down into the following sub-PRDs, with their dependencies and development order clearly defined:

1. Foundation Component - Must be completed first

   • This PRD establishes the core functionality needed by all other components
   • Dependencies: None
   • Required for: All other PRDs

2. Component A - Can be developed concurrently with Components B and C

   • Dependencies: Foundation Component
   • Required for: Component D
   • Potential conflict areas with Component B: [Describe and provide mitigation]

3. Component B - Can be developed concurrently with Components A and C

   • Dependencies: Foundation Component
   • Required for: Component E
   • Potential conflict areas with Component A: [Describe and provide mitigation]

4. Component C - Can be developed concurrently with Components A and B

   • Dependencies: Foundation Component
   • Required for: None
   • No conflicts with other concurrent components

5. Component D - Must wait for Component A

   • Dependencies: Foundation Component, Component A
   • Required for: None

6. Component E - Must wait for Component B

   • Dependencies: Foundation Component, Component B
   • Required for: None

Concurrent Development Strategy

To enable efficient concurrent development without conflicts:

1. Clear Component Interfaces: Each sub-PRD must define clear interfaces for how other components interact with it
2. Separate Database Concerns: Ensure database schema changes are coordinated to prevent conflicts
3. Modular Code Structure: Organize code to minimize overlap between components
4. Regular Integration: Plan for regular integration points to catch conflicts early
5. Feature Flags: Use feature flags to allow merging incomplete features without affecting production

Phase 1: Foundation
