# MVP Scope
|
|
|
|
## Objective
|
|
|
|
Release a public web application that solves the core planning workflow for `10"` and `19"` racks without waiting for full CAD-grade capabilities.
|
|
|
|
## MVP features
|
|
|
|
### 1. Rack editor
|
|
|
|
- create a rack project
|
|
- choose rack type: `10"` or `19"`
|
|
- define rack height in `U`
|
|
- define depth and optional width variant
|
|
- front view editor with occupied `U` grid
|
|
- drag-and-drop placement of components
|
|
- move and reorder components
|
|
- remove and duplicate components
|
|
|
|
### 2. Component library
|
|
|
|
- built-in catalog with common rack elements
|
|
- categories such as patch panel, switch, server, PDU, shelf, UPS, blank panel
|
|
- searchable component picker
|
|
- component detail panel with dimensions and metadata
|
|
|
|
### 3. Validation
|
|
|
|
- enforce rack width compatibility
|
|
- enforce `U` occupancy
|
|
- warn on depth overflow
|
|
- warn on weight limit overflow if rack limits are defined
|
|
|
|
### 4. Bill of materials
|
|
|
|
- aggregate identical parts
|
|
- export as `CSV`
|
|
- show quantity, part number, manufacturer, description, unit price, total price
|
|
- optionally list accessories separately
|
|
|
|
### 5. Plugin support
|
|
|
|
- import component packs based on a defined manifest
|
|
- metadata-driven components
|
|
- 2D visuals via `SVG`
|
|
- optional 3D visual asset reference for future use
|
|
|
|
### 6. Cable planning V1
|
|
|
|
- define cable links between two ports or two devices
|
|
- estimate route length using rack positions
|
|
- allow manual slack factor
|
|
- include cables in bill of materials
|
|
|
|
## Deliberately excluded from MVP
|
|
|
|
- freeform 3D editing
|
|
- native browser editing of `STEP` or `DXF`
|
|
- multi-rack room layout
|
|
- thermal simulation
|
|
- live collaboration
|
|
- advanced permission and approval workflows
|
|
- ERP integration
|
|
|
|
## Recommended MVP stack
|
|
|
|
- frontend: `React` + `TypeScript`
|
|
- editor rendering: `SVG` or `Canvas` for 2D rack view
|
|
- backend: `Node.js` or `PHP` API, depending on preferred team stack
|
|
- database: `PostgreSQL`
|
|
- storage: object storage for plugin assets and exports
|
|
|
|
## Success criteria
|
|
|
|
- a user can build a rack layout in under 10 minutes
|
|
- the system prevents invalid `U` placement
|
|
- the generated bill of materials is usable for procurement
|
|
- plugin packs can be added without code changes in the editor
|
|
- cable length estimates are close enough for practical preselection
