# Project Brief — PEDW FrontEnd
|
|
|
|
## What this project is
|
|
|
|
PEDW FrontEnd is a bilingual (English/Welsh) public-service web portal for Planning and Environment Decisions Wales. It supports public case discovery and authenticated portal workflows for planning appeals, representations, and DNS (Developments of National Significance) journeys.
|
|
|
|
## Problem it solves
|
|
|
|
- Gives citizens and stakeholders a single place to search planning cases and view case details/documents.
|
|
- Enables authenticated users to create/manage appeals and representations through structured online workflows.
|
|
- Provides role-aware dashboard experiences (e.g. general portal users and LPA users) without exposing internal CRM complexity.
|
|
|
|
## Key users / use cases
|
|
|
|
- **Public users:** search, filter, and view planning case information and documents.
|
|
- **Authenticated portal users:** manage account details, submit/continue appeals, submit representations, track watched and submitted items.
|
|
- **LPA users:** authority-scoped dashboard and representation-related actions.
|
|
- **Admin/support users:** review new appeals/documents and operational lists via admin endpoints/UI.
|
|
|
|
## High-level success criteria
|
|
|
|
1. Core public and portal journeys remain reliable (search, case detail, my portal, new appeal, representation).
|
|
2. Security-sensitive flows (auth/session, API relay/hash, file/document handling) remain intact.
|
|
3. EN/CY parity is maintained for routes and user-facing content.
|
|
4. Accessibility baseline remains acceptable for keyboard navigation, headings, labels, and focus behavior.
