HOTSPOTS

# PhoenixBoot Development Hotspots

This file tracks areas of active development or areas needing attention.

## Current Hotspots (2026-01-30)

### High Priority

1. **Container Architecture** - Actively being refined
   - Location: `containers/`
   - Status: Production-ready but evolving
   - See: [docs/CONTAINER_ARCHITECTURE.md](docs/CONTAINER_ARCHITECTURE.md)

2. **Terminal UI (TUI)** - New interactive interface
   - Location: `containers/tui/`
   - Status: Recently added, under active development
   - Technology: Python Textual framework

3. **SecureBoot Bootable Media** - Key feature
   - Script: `create-secureboot-bootable-media.sh`
   - Status: Production-ready
   - See: [docs/SECUREBOOT_BOOTABLE_MEDIA.md](docs/SECUREBOOT_BOOTABLE_MEDIA.md)

### Maintenance Needed

1. **Legacy Demo Code** - Needs cleanup
   - Location: `examples_and_samples/demo/legacy/`
   - Action: Consider archiving or documenting status

2. **Python Type Hints** - Partial coverage
   - Many older utilities lack type annotations
   - Gradual migration recommended

3. **Documentation Consolidation**
   - 40+ markdown files with some overlap
   - Consider organizing into docs/ subdirectories

### Security Sensitive Areas

1. **Key Management** - Critical paths
   - Scripts: `scripts/secure-boot/`, `scripts/mok-management/`
   - Always review changes carefully

2. **UEFI Applications** - Low-level code
   - Source: `staging/src/`
   - Requires EDK2 expertise

3. **Subprocess Usage** - Potential injection risks
   - Check: All Python files using subprocess/os.system
   - Rule: Always use command lists, never shell=True with user input

## Areas for Contribution

- Python type hints for older modules
- Additional test coverage
- Documentation improvements
- Hardware compatibility testing
