Instruct UI - An AI for Blazor UI Generation
## What's implemented
- Sidebar navigation and account block built with MudPaper and MudText.
- Top header with actions: New media button, view and filter icon buttons, and a MudTextField search.
- MudTabs for Content / Media switching.
- Left folder/search panel with a searchable list of folders.
- Drop area for file upload (UI placeholder, no upload handler).
- MudGrid of media cards generated from a list; each card shows thumbnail, title and action icons.
## Key components
- MudPaper, MudText, MudButton, MudIconButton
- MudTextField (search inputs, @bind-Value)
- MudTabs, MudTabPanel
- MudGrid, MudItem
- MudImage
- Reusable MediaCard component with a [Parameter] MediaItemModel
- MediaItemModel (Id, Name, ThumbnailUrl, IsFavorite)
## How it works
- Data is provided by local lists in the page (@code): _otherFolders and _mediaItems. The page uses a foreach to render MudItem elements inside MudGrid.
- MudTextField uses @bind-Value for _headerSearch and _folderSearch; these values are present but no filtering logic is wired.
- MediaCard receives a MediaItemModel via a [Parameter] and renders UI state (favorite icon toggled visually based on IsFavorite).
- Buttons and icon buttons are present but their click handlers/events are not implemented in the provided code.
## Styling
- Uses MudBlazor components and utility classes (pa-4, d-flex, mb-3, ml-2, mr-4, flex-1) for spacing and layout.
- MudGrid breakpoints (xs, sm, md, lg) provide responsive card columns.
- Visual emphasis relies on MudBlazor theme colors and component variants rather than external CSS frameworks.
## Reuse steps
1. Install MudBlazor NuGet and add using MudBlazor in _Imports.razor.
2. Register MudBlazor services in Program.cs (e.g., builder.Services.AddMudServices()).
3. Add a MediaItemModel class and the MediaCard component to the shared/components folder.
4. Copy the page razor markup and route (/media-library) into Pages; ensure icons and MudBlazor namespace are available.
5. Replace the sample lists with real data services, implement search/filter logic, and add upload/drag-drop handlers.
## Limitations & next steps
- No data access layer: the page uses in-memory lists; services or HTTP clients must be wired to load/save media.
- Upload and drag-drop area is a placeholder: implement input type=file or JS interop for drag-drop and server upload.
- No filtering, pagination, or sorting logic: implement server-side or client-side filtering using _headerSearch/_folderSearch.
- Actions (edit, more, favorite toggle) lack event handlers and confirmation dialogs; add event callbacks and optional MudDialog for edits.
- Consider accessibility (aria labels on icon buttons), keyboard navigation, and lazy-loading thumbnails for large libraries.
This component is a single-page UI scaffold generated by Instruct UI; it is editable and intended to be wired into application services, auth, and persistence.
