🔧 Common Patterns Established

Import Pattern

import { BaseWidgetComponent } from '@libs-widgets/widget-system';

Class Declaration

export class MyWidgetComponent extends BaseWidgetComponent implements OnDestroy {
  // widgetId from base
  readonly widget = input.required<Widget>();
  // ... other inputs

Constructor

constructor() {
  super(); // ✅ Always call super first
  // ... component-specific initialization
}

Lifecycle Methods

override onWidgetInit(): void {
  this.markReady();
}

override onWidgetDestroy(): void {
  // Cleanup handled by base class
}

override ngOnDestroy(): void {
  // Component-specific cleanup
  super.ngOnDestroy(); // ✅ Call base cleanup
}

Signals Overrides

// If BaseWidgetComponent has these properties:
override isLoading = signal<boolean>(true);
override hasError = signal<boolean>(false);

🎨 Benefits Realized

Consistency

✅ All widgets follow same architecture
✅ Predictable lifecycle management
✅ Standardized event handling
✅ Common error patterns

Performance

✅ OnPush change detection throughout
✅ Signals for reactive state
✅ State machine prevents invalid transitions
✅ Timeout protection avoids hanging

Developer Experience

✅ Clear migration pattern
✅ Compiler enforces best practices
✅ Reduced boilerplate
✅ Better IDE support

Maintenance

✅ Single source of truth for widget behavior
✅ Easier to add new features
✅ Bug fixes propagate to all widgets
✅ Consistent testing patterns

🚀 Next Steps

Immediate (Continue Today)

Migrate remaining simple widgets (Simple, Icon, Input from widgets lib)
