Component Walkthrough

Sidebar & Topbar

• Sidebar.jsx: Responsive navigation with collapse/expand, user profile, and menu items. Uses react-pro-sidebar and Material-UI for styling. The sidebar state is managed via React context (SidebarContext.js).
• Topbar.jsx: Contains theme toggle and user actions. Uses Material-UI icons and context for theme switching.

Dashboard

• Dashboard/index.jsx: Main landing page with summary stats, charts, and recent transactions. Uses StatBox, ProgressCircle, and chart components for a rich overview.

Data Grids

• Team, Contacts, Invoices: Use MUI DataGrid for tabular data, sorting, and filtering. Data is provided via mock data files for demonstration.

Charts

• BarChart, LineChart, PieChart, GeographyChart: Nivo-powered, theme-aware, and reusable. Each chart component receives props for dashboard or standalone use, and is styled to match the current theme.

Other Pages

• Form: Profile form with Formik/Yup validation, demonstrating controlled forms and validation.
• Calendar: Interactive calendar with event management, using FullCalendar and plugins for day, week, and list views.
• FAQ: Accordion-based FAQ section using Material-UI's Accordion components.

---

Pages & Routes

Route	Component	Description
/	Dashboard	Main dashboard overview
/team	Team	Team management grid
/contacts	Contacts	Contacts data grid
/invoices	Invoices	Invoices data grid
/form	Form	Profile form
/calendar	Calendar	Full-featured calendar
/faq	FAQ	FAQ accordion
/bar	Bar	Bar chart visualization
/pie	Pie	Pie chart visualization
/line	Line	Line chart visualization
/geography	Geography	Geography/choropleth chart

---

Customization & Theming

• Theme is managed via theme.js and Material-UI's ThemeProvider. The tokens function provides color palettes for light and dark modes.
• Light/dark mode toggle is available in the topbar and is managed via React context (ColorModeContext).
• All components use theme tokens for consistent styling and easy customization.

---

Reusing Components

All components are modular and can be reused in other projects:

• Charts: Import any chart component and pass your own data/props. Example:

import BarChart from './components/BarChart';

<BarChart isDashboard={false} />

• StatBox, ProgressCircle, Header: Use for summary stats, progress indicators, and section headers. Example:

import StatBox from './components/StatBox';

<StatBox
  title="1,000"
  subtitle="New Users"
  progress="0.8"
  increase="+20%"
  icon={<YourIcon />}
/>

• Sidebar/Topbar: Adapt for your own navigation needs. The sidebar is context-aware and can be collapsed/expanded from anywhere in the app.

---

Example Usage

To add a new page:

1. Create a new folder and index.jsx in src/scenes/yourpage/.
2. Add a route in App.js:

<Route path="/yourpage" element={<YourPage />} />

3. Add a menu item in Sidebar.jsx:

<Item title="Your Page" to="/yourpage" icon={<YourIcon />} ... />

---

Code Explanation & Learning Content

• App.js: The root component. Sets up theme, context, sidebar state, and routes. Example:

<ColorModeContext.Provider value={colorMode}>
  <ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
    <CssBaseline />
    <SidebarContext.Provider value={{ isCollapsed, setIsCollapsed }}>
      <div className="app">
        <Sidebar />
        <main className="content">
          <Topbar />
          <Routes>
            {/* ...routes... */}
          </Routes>
        </main>
      </div>
    </SidebarContext.Provider>
  </ThemeProvider>
</ColorModeContext.Provider>

• Sidebar.jsx: Uses react-pro-sidebar for navigation. The Item component is used for each menu entry. The sidebar can be collapsed/expanded, and the selected menu is highlighted.

• theme.js: Exports color tokens and theme configuration. The tokens function provides a palette for both light and dark modes, and the theme is created using Material-UI's createTheme.

• Charts: All chart components use Nivo's responsive chart components and are styled with the current theme. Example for LineChart.jsx:

<ResponsiveLine
  data={data}
  theme={{
    axis: { /* ... */ },
    legends: { /* ... */ },
    tooltip: { /* ... */ },
  }}
  colors={isDashboard ? { datum: "color" } : { scheme: "nivo" }}
  /* ...other props... */
/>

• Context: Sidebar and theme state are managed via React context, making it easy to access and update from any component.

• Data: All data is mocked for demonstration and can be replaced with real API calls as needed.
