Implemented 5 major improvements for better mobile UX: 1. ✅ Fixed Header Transform Issue Problem: Header used sticky + translateY, so submenu top-0 had no effect Solution: Changed to fixed positioning on mobile Before: <header className="sticky top-0 -translate-y-full"> After: <header className="fixed top-0 left-0 right-0 -translate-y-full"> <div className="pt-16"> <!-- compensate for fixed header --> Result: Submenu now properly moves to top-0 when header hides 2. ✅ Removed Top Bar in Mobile Standalone Mode Problem: Top bar wastes precious vertical space on mobile Solution: Hide header completely on mobile PWA standalone Implementation: if (isStandalone && window.innerWidth < 768) return null; Result: Native app feel, maximum content space 3. ✅ Fixed More Page Gap Problem: PageHeader had transparent background, content visible behind Solution: Changed to solid background Before: bg-background/95 backdrop-blur After: bg-background Result: Clean, solid header with no bleed-through 4. ✅ Fixed Button Sizing Problem: .ui-ctrl class overriding button heights Solution: Removed .ui-ctrl from Button component Before: className={cn('ui-ctrl', buttonVariants(...))} After: className={cn(buttonVariants(...))} Button sizes now work correctly: - sm: h-8 (32px) - default: h-9 (36px) - lg: h-10 (40px) 5. ✅ Implemented Contextual Headers Problem: No page-specific headers Solution: Added usePageHeader hook to More page Implementation: useEffect(() => { setPageHeader(__('More')); return () => clearPageHeader(); }, []); Result: Consistent header pattern across all pages Mobile Layout (Standalone Mode): ┌─────────────────────────────────┐ │ (No top bar - native feel) │ ├─────────────────────────────────┤ │ Submenu (dynamic top) │ ├─────────────────────────────────┤ │ Page Title (contextual) │ ├─────────────────────────────────┤ │ Content │ │ [+] │ ├─────────────────────────────────┤ │ Bottom Nav │ └─────────────────────────────────┘ Benefits: ✅ Native app feel on mobile ✅ Maximum content space (64px saved!) ✅ Smooth scroll animations ✅ Consistent button sizing ✅ Clean, professional look ✅ Industry-standard UX Files Modified: - App.tsx: Fixed header positioning, hide on mobile standalone - PageHeader.tsx: Solid background - button.tsx: Removed ui-ctrl override - More/index.tsx: Added contextual header Next Steps: - Add contextual headers to remaining pages - Test on real devices - Add page transitions - Implement pull-to-refresh
WooNooW
WooNooW is a modern experience layer for WooCommerce — enhancing UX, speed, and reliability without data migration.
It keeps WooCommerce as the core engine while providing a modern React-powered interface for both the storefront (cart, checkout, my‑account) and the admin (orders, dashboard).
Three Admin Modes:
- Normal Mode: Traditional wp-admin integration (
/wp-admin/admin.php?page=woonoow) - Fullscreen Mode: Distraction-free interface (toggle in header)
- Standalone Mode: Complete standalone app at
yoursite.com/adminwith custom login ✨
🔍 Background
WooCommerce is the most used e‑commerce engine in the world, but its architecture has become heavy and fragmented.
With React‑based blocks (Checkout, Cart, Product Edit) and HPOS now rolling out, many existing addons are becoming obsolete or unstable.
WooNooW bridges the gap between Woo’s legacy PHP system and the new modern stack — so users get performance and simplicity without losing compatibility.
🚀 Key Principles
- No Migration Needed – Woo data stays intact.
- Safe Activate/Deactivate – revert to native Woo anytime, no data loss.
- Hybrid by Default – SSR + React islands for Cart/Checkout/My‑Account.
- Full SPA Toggle – optional React‑only mode for max performance.
- HPOS Mandatory – optimized datastore and async operations.
- Compat Layer – hook mirror + slot rendering for legacy addons.
- Async Mail & Tasks – powered by Action Scheduler.
🧱 Tech Stack
| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| Backend | PHP 8.2+, WordPress, WooCommerce (HPOS), Action Scheduler |
| Frontend | React 18 + TypeScript, Vite, React Query, Tailwind (optional) |
| Build & Package | Composer, NPM, ESM scripts, Zip automation |
| Architecture | Modular PSR‑4 classes, REST‑driven SPA islands |
