# Mission Control Dashboard — TLC Project

**Status:** In Progress — Needs Consolidation & Refresh
**Created:** 2026-02-17 (Next.js) / 2026-02-20 (Python)
**Goal:** Combine both dashboards into one unified system

---

## Current State

We have **TWO** Mission Control dashboards:

### 1. Next.js Dashboard
| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Location** | `C:\web\htdocs\mission-control` |
| **URL** | http://localhost:3000 |
| **Tech** | Next.js 14, TypeScript, Tailwind |
| **Status** | Running but needs updates |
| **Features** | Project cards, Kanban boards, Status widgets, Themes |

### 2. Python/Flask Dashboard
| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Location** | `C:\web\htdocs\mission-control-py` |
| **URL** | http://localhost:5050 |
| **Tech** | Python/Flask, MySQL, HA API |
| **Status** | Running but needs updates |
| **Features** | Admin CRUD, Weather, Gateway status, Projects |

---

## The Problem

Two dashboards doing similar things. Need to decide on architecture.

---

## Features to Preserve

### From Next.js:
- Project cards, Kanban boards
- Drag-and-drop tasks
- Real-time status widgets
- 4 themes (NASA, Luxury, Cyberpunk, Organic)
- GLaDOS voice control

### From Python:
- MySQL persistence
- Home Assistant API
- Weather widget
- Admin CRUD
- News tracking

---

## Possible Directions

**A:** Refactor Next.js (add MySQL, port Python features)
**B:** Enhance Python (add themes, polish UI)
**C:** Start Fresh (new tech stack)
**D:** Hybrid API (Python backend, Next.js frontend)

---

**Notes:**
- Frigate is working (Docker)
- UniFi is parked (auth issues later)
- On hold until direction decided
