🚀 How to Test

1. Start the dev server:

npm run dev

2. Test wallet connection:

   • Click "Connect Wallet" button in header
   • Select Freighter or Albedo
   • See loading state
   • See success confirmation
   • Onboarding flow appears (first time only)

3. Test error states:

   • Try connecting without wallet installed → See "wallet not found" error
   • Reject connection in wallet → See "connection failed" error

4. Test persistence:

   • Connect wallet
   • Refresh page
   • Wallet should auto-reconnect

5. Test disconnect:

   • Click connected wallet address
   • Click "Disconnect" in dropdown
   • Button returns to "Connect Wallet"

🔧 Integration with Real Wallets

Currently uses mock wallet detection. To integrate real wallets:

Freighter

npm install @stellar/freighter-api

Update src/utils/wallet.ts:

import { isConnected, getPublicKey, getNetwork } from "@stellar/freighter-api";

Albedo

npm install @albedo-link/intent

Update src/utils/wallet.ts:

import albedo from '@albedo-link/intent';

📱 Responsive Design

• Mobile-friendly modal (90% width, max 480px)
• Touch-friendly buttons (min 44px height)
• Readable text sizes (0.85rem - 1.5rem)
• Proper spacing and padding

♿ Accessibility

• Keyboard navigation support
• Focus states on interactive elements
• Semantic HTML structure
• ARIA labels (can be enhanced)
• Color contrast meets WCAG AA

🧪 Testing Checklist

• Connect with Freighter
• Connect with Albedo
• Wallet not found error
• Connection rejected error
• Wrong network error
• Success state displays
• Onboarding shows (first time)
• Onboarding skips (returning user)
• Auto-reconnect works
• Disconnect works
• Dropdown menu works
• Mobile responsive
• Animations smooth

🎯 Next Steps

1. Install real wallet SDKs (Freighter, Albedo)
2. Test with actual wallets on Stellar testnet
3. Add transaction signing capabilities
4. Implement credit evaluation after wallet connection
5. Add wallet balance display
6. Add network switching UI

💡 Usage in Components

import { useWallet } from './context/WalletContext';

function MyComponent() {
  const { wallet, status, connect, disconnect } = useWallet();
  
  if (status === 'connected' && wallet) {
    return (
      <div>
        <p>Connected: {wallet.publicKey}</p>
        <p>Network: {wallet.network}</p>
        <button onClick={disconnect}>Disconnect</button>
      </div>
    );
  }
  
  return <button onClick={() => connect('freighter')}>Connect</button>;
}

🐛 Known Limitations

1. Mock wallet detection (needs real SDK integration)
2. No transaction signing yet
3. No multi-wallet support
4. No wallet switching without disconnect
5. No mobile wallet deep linking
