🧹 Repository Cleanup

This PR organizes scattered documentation files into logical folders, making the repository much easier to navigate. This cleanup complements PR #31's comprehensive backend refactor.

🎯 What This PR Does

Creates New Documentation Structure

docs/
├── README.md (documentation index)
├── archive/ (historical guides)
├── fixes/ (documented bug fixes)
├── setup/ (deployment & config)
└── development/ (dev guides)

database/
├── archive/ (old schema files)
├── migrations/ (unchanged)
└── scripts/ (unchanged)

Before ❌

  • 25+ markdown files cluttering root directory
  • Unclear which docs were current vs historical
  • Multiple schema files with no clear precedence
  • Hard to find relevant documentation

After ✅

  • Clean root with only essential files
  • Organized documentation by purpose
  • Clear archive for historical reference
  • Easy navigation via docs/README.md

📄 Files Reorganized

Documentation Moved:

Setup & Deployment (docs/setup/):

  • SETUP.mddocs/setup/local-development.md
  • ENV_VARIABLES.mddocs/setup/environment-variables.md
  • PRE_LAUNCH_CHECKLIST.mddocs/setup/pre-launch-checklist.md

Development (docs/development/):

  • TESTING.mddocs/development/testing-guide.md
  • CONTRIBUTING.mddocs/development/contributing.md

  • MAINTENANCE_ENDPOINTS_FIX.mddocs/fixes/maintenance-endpoints-fix.md
  • RAILWAY_FIXES.mddocs/fixes/railway-deployment-fix.md
  • HYDRANT_ADD_IMPROVEMENTS.mddocs/fixes/hydrant-add-improvements.md

  • MAINTENANCE_MODULE.mddocs/archive/maintenance-module.md
  • hydrant-hub-guide.mddocs/archive/hydrant-hub-guide.md

Database Files Archived:

Old schemas moved to database/archive/:

  • maintenance-schema.sqlmaintenance-schema-legacy.sql
  • create-maintenance-tables.sqlcreate-maintenance-tables-legacy.sql
  • quick-fix-schema.sqlquick-fix-schema.sql

Note: PR #31 introduces database/master-schema.sql as the new unified schema.

Files Removed:

  • mobile-nav-integration-example.html (example code, no longer needed)
  • multi-tenancy-*.md (consolidated into archive)

📚 New Documentation Index

Added docs/README.md with:

  • Clear navigation structure
  • Quick start guides
  • Links to all documentation
  • Documentation standards

See the new structure in the documentation index.

🗂️ Migration Guide

If you had bookmarked files:

Old Location New Location
SETUP.md docs/setup/local-development.md
ENV_VARIABLES.md docs/setup/environment-variables.md
TESTING.md docs/development/testing-guide.md
CONTRIBUTING.md docs/development/contributing.md
database/schema.sql database/archive/schema-original.sql

✅ Files Kept in Root (Essential)

  • README.md (main entry point)
  • LICENSE (required)
  • .gitignore / .gitattributes (git config)
  • docker-compose.yml (docker setup)
  • netlify.toml (deployment)
  • promote-superadmin.js (admin utility)

🏁 Benefits

  1. Easier onboarding - New developers can find setup docs quickly
  2. Clear history - Archive keeps old docs for reference
  3. Better organization - Docs grouped by purpose
  4. Cleaner root - Only essential files visible
  5. Scalable structure - Easy to add new docs

  2. Merge PR Complete App Refactor - Fix Connections, Add Features, Clean Code #31 for backend refactor
  3. Update any external documentation links
  4. Consider creating GitHub wiki for user docs
