# Fusion App Development
## When to use
Use this skill when developing features, components, hooks, services, or types for a Fusion Framework React application.
Typical triggers:
- "Add a component / hook / service / page for ..."
- "Wire up the API"
- "Configure a Fusion module"
- "Which Fusion Framework hook / package should this app use?"
- "Persist this preference as an app setting"
- "Add bookmark / analytics / feature flag support"
- "Add a chart / people picker / person column to AG Grid"
- "How do I write a custom Fusion Framework module?"
- "Should this be a Fusion module or a React context?"
- "Write tests for this Fusion component / hook / route"
- "Mock auth, context, feature flags, or HTTP in this test"
Implicit triggers:
- Building in `src/`
- References Fusion Framework modules, EDS, `@equinor/fusion-react-*`, or styled-components
- References app settings, bookmarks, analytics, `app.config.ts`
- Adding route, page, or data-fetching layer
- Adding or updating `*.test.ts` / `*.test.tsx`, `vitest.config.ts`, or Fusion test fixtures
- References charting: `@equinor/fusion-framework-react-ag-charts`, `chart.js`, `react-chartjs-2`
## When not to use
Do not use this skill for:
- Issue authoring/triage → `fusion-issue-authoring`
- Skill authoring → `fusion-skill-authoring`
- Backend/service changes (separate repo)
- CI/CD or deployment config
- Architecture docs (use ADR template)
For Fusion Framework package ownership, hook behavior, or example discovery → use `fusion-research` first.
## Required inputs
### Mandatory
- What to build: feature, component, hook, or service description
- Where it fits: layer (component, hook, service, type) and parent/sibling context
For ambiguous requests, consult `assets/follow-up-questions.md` before implementing.
### Conditional
- API endpoint details when the feature involves data fetching
- Design/layout specifics when building visual components
- Fusion module name when extending module configuration
- Whether state should persist per-user, be shareable via bookmark, or stay runtime-only
- Expected test layer: pure logic, hook, component, route, complete app, or module graph
- External boundaries tests must seed: auth, context, services, feature flags, bookmarks, or HTTP
## Instructions
### Step 1 — Discover project conventions
Inspect target repo before writing code:
1. Read `package.json` — package manager (bun/pnpm/npm), scripts, dependencies.
2. Read `tsconfig.json` — TypeScript settings, path aliases.
3. Scan `src/` — directory layout, layer structure.
4. Check `docs/adr/` or `contribute/` for project-specific code standards.
5. Check formatter/linter config (`biome.json`, `.eslintrc`, `prettier`).
6. Read `app.config.ts` and `app.manifest.ts` — endpoints, environment setup.
7. Delegate uncertain Fusion Framework behavior, package ownership, or cookbook examples to `fusion-research` before writing code.
Adapt to discovered conventions. `references/` patterns are defaults — defer to project-specific rules when they differ.
### Step 2 — Plan the implementation
New app from scratch → use `assets/new-app-checklist.md`.
1. Break into discrete files/changes.
2. Map to correct directory. Typical Fusion app:
- `src/components/` — React components (presentation layer)
- `src/hooks/` — Custom React hooks (state and side-effect logic)
- `src/api/` — API clients, data transforms, business logic
- `src/types/` — TypeScript interfaces, type aliases, enums
- `src/routes.ts` — Route definitions (when using Fusion Router)
- `src/config.ts` — Fusion module configuration
- `src/App.tsx` — Root component, layout shell
3. Identify shared types early — define before referencing.
4. Project uses routing → follow `references/using-router.md` for DSL + page patterns.
5. Different structure → follow it.
### Step 3 — Implement following code conventions
Follow project code standards from Step 1. For naming, TSDoc, inline comments, type patterns, code style, error handling → defer to `fusion-code-conventions`.
For convention questions during implementation, invoke `fusion-code-conventions` directly.
### Step 4 — Style with styled-components, EDS, and Fusion React components
Follow `references/styled-components.md`, `references/styling-with-eds.md`, `references/using-fusion-react-components.md`:
- Use `styled-components` for custom styling (Fusion convention).
- No CSS Modules, global CSS, Tailwind, or alternative CSS-in-JS unless project uses them.
- Use `Styled` object pattern for co-located styled components.
- Prefer EDS (`@equinor/eds-core-react`) for standard UI.
- Use EDS design tokens (`@equinor/eds-tokens`) for colors, spacing, typography.
- Extend EDS with `styled()` for customization.
- Use `@equinor/fusion-react-*` for domain needs not in EDS (person display/selection, side sheets, progress).
- Inline `style` props: one-off tweaks only.
- For page/view structure (shell composition, layout zones, empty/loading states), invoke `agents/design.md`. For component-level EDS styling, invoke `agents/styling.md`.
### Step 5 — Wire up data fetching (when applicable)
Follow `references/configure-services.md`, `references/using-react-query.md`, `references/configure-mocking.md`:
- Register HTTP clients via `configureHttpClient` in `config.ts` or `app.config.ts`.
- Access clients with `useHttpClient(name)` from `@equinor/fusion-framework-react-app/http`.
- **Prefer `@equinor/fusion-framework-react-app/*` hooks** over direct module access. Reserve `framework.modules.*` for non-React contexts.
- React Query: wrap `useQuery` in thin custom hooks.
- Query keys: derived from API path + parameters.
- Keep client UI state in React state/context, not server-state libs.
### Step 6 — Configure Fusion modules (when applicable)
Identify which module the user needs, then read only the matching reference:
| Need | Reference |
|---|---|
| HTTP clients / API integration | `references/configure-services.md` |
| Context module | `references/using-context.md` |
| Router and pages | `references/using-router.md` |
| AG Grid | `references/using-ag-grid.md` |
| AG Charts (standalone) | `references/using-ag-charts.md` |
| AG Grid integrated charts | `references/using-ag-grid-charts.md` |
| EDS + Fusion React components | `references/using-fusion-react-components.md` |
| People service (search, display, pick) | `references/using-people-service.md` |
| Settings | `references/using-settings.md` |
| Bookmarks | `references/using-bookmarks.md` |
| Analytics | `references/using-analytics.md` |
| Runtime config / environment | `references/using-assets-and-environment.md` |
| Feature flags | `references/using-feature-flags.md` |
| General framework modules | `references/using-framework-modules.md` |
| Custom module authoring | `references/using-custom-modules.md` |
- Module setup in `config.ts` via `AppModuleInitiator` callback.
- Access modules via hooks: `useAppModule`, `useHttpClient`, `useCurrentContext`.
- Register HTTP endpoints in `app.config.ts` for new API integrations.
- Enable navigation with `enableNavigation` in `config.ts` when app uses routing.
- Define routes via Fusion Router DSL (`layout`, `index`, `route`, `prefix`) for auto code splitting.
- Unclear framework API → use `fusion-research` before choosing implementation pattern.
### Step 7 — Add or update tests
Follow `references/testing.md`. Use `agents/testing.md` for focused test creation, maintenance, and
execution. It routes framework setup/rendering to `fusion-framework-testing` and module/HTTP state
to `fusion-framework-mocking`.
### Step 8 — Validate
Use `assets/review-checklist.md` as post-generation checklist.
1. Run typecheck (`bun run typecheck` or `pnpm typecheck`) — zero errors.
2. Run lint/format check — zero violations.
3. Every new exported symbol has TSDoc.
4. Styling follows project conventions.
5. No new dependencies unless justified/approved.
## Expected output
- New/modified `src/` files following project layer structure.
- All files pass typecheck + lint.
- Every exported function, component, hook, and type has TSDoc.
- Styling follows project conventions.
- Tests cover changed behavior using `fusion-framework-testing`; test-time Fusion state uses
`fusion-framework-mocking` where needed.
- Brief summary of what changed and why.
## Helper agents
Optional helpers in `agents/`. Use for focused review or mid-implementation guidance. Runtimes without skill-local agents apply criteria inline.
Companion skills:
- `fusion-research` for source-backed Fusion ecosystem research when implementation is blocked by uncertainty.
- `fusion-framework-testing` for Fusion Framework React test setup, fixtures, rendering, and troubleshooting.
- `fusion-framework-mocking` for deterministic module state and HTTP/OpenAPI boundaries in tests.
- **`agents/testing.md`** — creates, maintains, and executes app tests; routes to testing/mocking companion skills. Use for changed behavior, test files, fixtures, config, or failures.
- **`agents/framework.md`** — Fusion Framework integration: modules, HTTP clients, bootstrap, runtime config, settings, bookmarks, analytics. **Prefers `mcp_fusion_search_framework`**; falls back to `mcp_fusion_search_docs`. Consult when wiring `config.ts`, `app.config.ts`, or framework module access.
- **`agents/styling.md`** — EDS component selection, styled-components, design tokens, accessibility. **Prefers `mcp_fusion_search_eds`**. Consult when building/modifying visual components.
- **`agents/design.md`** — page/view structure: Fusion Portal shell composition, layout zones, side panel usage, empty/loading state patterns. References `equinor-design-system` for layout ground truth. Delegates component-level checks to `agents/styling.md`. Consult when scaffolding new pages or layout wrappers.
- **`agents/data-display.md`** — AG Grid vs AG Charts, module setup, column defs, chart options, integrated charting. **Prefers `mcp_fusion_search_framework`**. Consult for grids, charts, dashboards. Use `assets/charts-decision-matrix.md` for library selection.
- **`agents/person-components.md`** — `@equinor/fusion-react-person`: `PersonAvatar`, `PersonCard`, `PersonListItem`, `PersonPicker`, `PeoplePicker`, `PeopleViewer`, `PersonCell` (AG Grid). DOM event pattern, valueGetter setup, pitfalls. Consult for any person display, search, or selection UI.
- **`agents/code-quality.md`** — delegates convention checks (naming, TSDoc, TS strictness, intent comments) to `fusion-code-conventions`, aggregates findings. Run on every new/modified file before finalizing.
## Safety & constraints
- No new dependencies without explicit approval.
- No direct DOM manipulation — use React patterns.
- No `any` types — TypeScript strict mode standard.
- No secrets or credentials in source files.
- Conventional commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `refactor:`, etc.).
- No infrastructure files (docker-compose, CI config) unless explicitly asked.
