Mana — Module Ideas

Brainstorm of potential new product modules for the unified Mana app (apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/modules/). Captured 2026-04-09.

The app currently ships 37 modules. Each idea below is a candidate for a new modules/{name}/ folder following the standard module pattern (module.config.ts, collections.ts, queries.ts, stores/*.svelte.ts, plus a route under (app)/{name}/).

Most user-typed content should default to encrypted (see apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/data/crypto/registry.ts). Modules marked (ZK) are sensitive enough that zero-knowledge mode should be the default recommendation.

Next steps

When picking one to build, the standard scaffolding is:

1. apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/modules/{name}/module.config.ts — declare appId + tables
2. Add to apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/data/module-registry.ts
3. Add Dexie schema bump in apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/data/database.ts
4. If sensitive: register in apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/data/crypto/registry.ts
5. Route under apps/mana/apps/web/src/routes/(app)/{name}/
6. Register in packages/shared-branding/src/mana-apps.ts (icon, tier, branding)
