Overview

This PR introduces a comprehensive visual editor for azure.yaml files, enabling developers to create and modify Azure Developer CLI configurations through an intuitive, form-based interface with real-time validation and preview.

Key Features

🎨 Visual Editing Experience

  • Schema-driven forms for all azure.yaml sections (services, resources, hooks, healthchecks, etc.)
  • Navigation sidebar with search and hierarchical organization
  • Live preview pane showing YAML output in real-time
  • Quick actions bar for common operations (add service, import, export, validate)
  • Command palette (Cmd/Ctrl+K) for keyboard-driven workflows

🔍 Validation & Error Handling

  • Real-time schema validation against azure.yaml JSON schema
  • Comprehensive error messages with contextual help
  • Auto-save functionality with backup/restore capabilities
  • Recovery mechanisms for corrupted configurations
  • Toast notifications for user feedback

📦 Import/Export Capabilities

  • Import from file upload, paste YAML, or templates
  • Export with selective cherry-picking of sections
  • Merge strategies for combining configurations
  • Backup management with automatic snapshots

Accessibility (WCAG AA Compliant)

  • Full keyboard navigation with skip links
  • Screen reader announcements for state changes
  • Focus management and trap for modals
  • High contrast support with theme awareness
  • Comprehensive ARIA labels and landmarks

🏥 Advanced Configuration

  • Health checks: HTTP endpoint monitoring with retry logic
  • Hooks: Lifecycle event handlers (pre/post provision, up, down, restore)
  • Resources: Azure resource configuration (App Service, Container Apps, Functions, etc.)
  • Connection strings: Secure credential management
  • Well-known services: Quick setup for common service patterns

Technical Implementation

Frontend (React + TypeScript)

  • Component library using shadcn/ui patterns
  • Custom hooks for state management (useEditorState, useValidation, useCommandPalette)
  • Comprehensive test coverage (E2E + unit tests)
  • Performance optimizations (lazy loading, memoization, virtual lists)

Backend (Go)

  • New editor API endpoints for configuration management
  • Schema validation handlers with detailed error reporting
  • Security measures (rate limiting, input sanitization, CSRF protection)
  • Well-known service templates API
  • Retry logic for network operations

Testing

  • E2E test suites covering all major workflows (22 test files)
  • Comprehensive fixtures for testing scenarios
  • Accessibility testing with axe-core integration
  • Playwright-based UI testing framework
  • Test project with sample azure.yaml configurations

Documentation
