# Epic 0: Project Setup & Foundation

## Overview
Initialize repository structure with proper Go project layout, implement configuration management system, establish structured logging system, set up CI/CD pipeline and development tooling, and bootstrap dependency injection and application entry point.

## Stories

### 0.1 Project Initialization and Repository Structure
- [Story: 0.1 - Project Initialization](./0.1-project-initialization.md)
- **Goal:** Establish a properly structured Go project with all necessary directories, configuration files, and documentation.
- **Deliverables:** Go module initialization, complete directory structure, .gitignore, comprehensive README.md

### 0.2 Configuration Management System
- [Story: 0.2 - Configuration Management System](./0.2-configuration-management-system.md)
- **Goal:** Implement a flexible configuration system that loads settings from YAML files, environment variables, and supports type-safe access.
- **Deliverables:** ConfigProvider interface, Viper implementation, configuration files, DI integration

### 0.3 Structured Logging System
- [Story: 0.3 - Structured Logging System](./0.3-structured-logging-system.md)
- **Goal:** Implement a production-ready logging system with structured JSON output, request correlation, and configurable log levels.
- **Deliverables:** Logger interface, Zap implementation, request ID middleware, context-aware logging

### 0.4 CI/CD Pipeline and Development Tooling
- [Story: 0.4 - CI/CD Pipeline and Development Tooling](./0.4-cicd-pipeline.md)
- **Goal:** Establish automated testing, linting, and build processes with a developer-friendly Makefile.
- **Deliverables:** GitHub Actions workflow, comprehensive Makefile, build automation

### 0.5 Dependency Injection and Application Bootstrap
- [Story: 0.5 - Dependency Injection and Application Bootstrap](./0.5-di-and-bootstrap.md)
- **Goal:** Set up dependency injection container using Uber FX and create the application entry point that initializes the platform.
- **Deliverables:** DI container, FX providers, application entry point, lifecycle management

## Deliverables Checklist
- [x] Repository structure in place
- [x] Configuration system loads YAML files and env vars
- [x] Structured logging works
- [x] CI pipeline runs linting and builds binary
- [x] Basic DI container initialized

## Acceptance Criteria
- `go build ./cmd/platform` succeeds
- `go test ./...` runs (even if tests are empty)
- CI pipeline passes on empty commit
- Config loads from `config/default.yaml`
- Logger can be injected and used
- Application starts and shuts down gracefully
