# Implementation Plan: View Event Landing Page

**Branch**: `007-view-event` | **Date**: 2026-03-06 | **Spec**: [spec.md](spec.md)
**Input**: Feature specification from `/specs/007-view-event/spec.md`

## Summary

Add a public event detail page at `/events/:token` that displays event information (title, date/time with IANA timezone, description, location, attendee count) without requiring authentication. The page handles four states: loaded, expired ("event has ended"), not found (404), and server error (retry button). Loading uses skeleton-shimmer placeholders. Backend adds `GET /events/{token}` endpoint and a `timezone` field to the Event model (cross-cutting change to US-1).

## Technical Context

**Language/Version**: Java 25 (backend), TypeScript 5.9 (frontend)
**Primary Dependencies**: Spring Boot 3.5.x, Vue 3, Vue Router 5, openapi-fetch, openapi-typescript
**Storage**: PostgreSQL (JPA via Spring Data, Liquibase migrations)
**Testing**: JUnit (backend), Vitest (frontend unit), Playwright + MSW (frontend E2E)
**Target Platform**: Self-hosted web application (Docker)
**Project Type**: Web service + SPA
**Performance Goals**: N/A (single-user scale, self-hosted)
**Constraints**: No external resources (CDNs, fonts, tracking), WCAG AA, privacy-first
**Scale/Scope**: Single new view + one new API endpoint + one cross-cutting model change

## Constitution Check

*GATE: Must pass before Phase 0 research. Re-check after Phase 1 design.*

| Principle | Status | Notes |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| I. Privacy by Design | PASS | No PII exposed. Only attendee count shown (not names). No external resources. No tracking. |
| II. Test-Driven Methodology | PASS | TDD enforced: backend unit tests, frontend unit tests, E2E tests per spec. |
| III. API-First Development | PASS | OpenAPI spec updated first. Types generated. Response schemas include `example:` fields. |
| IV. Simplicity & Quality | PASS | Minimal changes: one GET endpoint, one new view, one model field. `attendeeCount` returns 0 (no RSVP stub). Cancelled state deferred. |
| V. Dependency Discipline | PASS | No new dependencies. Skeleton shimmer is CSS-only. |
| VI. Accessibility | PASS | Semantic HTML, ARIA attributes, keyboard navigable, WCAG AA contrast via design system. |

**Post-Phase-1 re-check**: All gates still pass. The `timezone` field addition is a justified cross-cutting change documented in research.md R-1.

**Structure Decision**: Existing web application structure (backend + frontend). No new packages or modules — extends existing hexagonal architecture with one new inbound port and one new frontend view.
