  • Resizable Divider: Drag to adjust terminal/builder ratio (30-70% range)
  • Synchronized State: Both views stay in sync during interactions
  • Smooth Animations: Spring-based transitions for polish

5. Visual DNN Builder

  • Block Palette: Organized categories (Input, Layers, Operations, Output)
  • Drag-and-Drop: Click blocks to add them to canvas
  • Block Types:
    • Input layer
    • Dense (fully connected)
    • Conv2D (convolutional)
    • LSTM (recurrent)
    • Dropout
    • Activation functions
    • Pooling operations
    • Batch Normalization
    • Output layer
  • Color-Coded: Each block type has distinct color
  • Parameter Display: Shows default parameters per block
  • Selection State: Visual feedback for selected blocks
  • Canvas: Infinite workspace for building networks

6. Design System

  • Theme Tokens: Centralized color, spacing, and typography
  • Dark Mode: Professional dark theme throughout
  • Consistent Spacing: 4px-based spacing system
  • Border Radius: Consistent corner rounding
  • Typography: SF Pro for UI, SF Mono for code
  • Color Palette:
    • Background: #1A1A1A
    • Surface: #222222
    • Accent: #D97706 (orange)
    • Text: Multi-level hierarchy
    • Status colors: Success, error, warning

7. Animations & Interactions

  • Spring Animations: Natural, physics-based motion
  • Hover States: Interactive feedback on all clickable elements
  • Focus Management: Auto-focus on input fields
  • Smooth Transitions: View changes feel polished
  • Staggered Entry: Welcome screen elements animate in sequence

Component Architecture

State Management

  • AppState: Central observable state for app-wide data
  • @EnvironmentObject: Shared across view hierarchy
  • @StateObject: Lifecycle-managed state owners
  • @Published: Reactive property updates
