+
+## Project Overview
+
+MyFastHtml is a Python utility library that simplifies FastHTML application development by providing:
+- Command management system for client-server interactions
+- Bidirectional data binding system
+- Predefined authentication pages and routes
+- Interactive control helpers
+- Session-based instance management
+
+**Tech Stack**: Python 3.12+, FastHTML, HTMX, DaisyUI 5, Tailwind CSS 4
+
+## Development Workflow and Guidelines
+
+### Development Process
+
+**Code must always be testable**. Before writing any code:
+
+1. **Explain available options first** - Present different approaches to solve the problem
+2. **Wait for validation** - Ensure mutual understanding of requirements before implementation
+3. **No code without approval** - Only proceed after explicit validation
+
+### Collaboration Style
+
+**Ask questions to clarify understanding or suggest alternative approaches:**
+- Ask questions **one at a time**
+- Wait for complete answer before asking the next question
+- Indicate progress: "Question 1/5" if multiple questions are needed
+- Never assume - always clarify ambiguities
+
+### Communication
+
+**Conversations**: French or English
+**Code, documentation, comments**: English only
+
+### Code Standards
+
+**Follow PEP 8** conventions strictly:
+- Variable and function names: `snake_case`
+- Explicit, descriptive naming
+- **No emojis in code**
+
+**Documentation**:
+- Use Google or NumPy docstring format
+- Document all public functions and classes
+- Include type hints where applicable
+
+### Dependency Management
+
+**When introducing new dependencies:**
+- List all external dependencies explicitly
+- Propose alternatives using Python standard library when possible
+- Explain why each dependency is needed
+
+### Unit Testing with pytest
+
+**Test naming patterns:**
+- Passing tests: `test_i_can_xxx` - Tests that should succeed
+- Failing tests: `test_i_cannot_xxx` - Edge cases that should raise errors/exceptions
+
+**Test structure:**
+- Use **functions**, not classes (unless inheritance is required)
+- Before writing tests, **list all planned tests with explanations**
+- Wait for validation before implementing tests
+
+**Example:**
+```python
+def test_i_can_create_command_with_valid_name():
+    """Test that a command can be created with a valid name."""
+    cmd = Command("valid_name", "description", lambda: None)
+    assert cmd.name == "valid_name"
+
+def test_i_cannot_create_command_with_empty_name():
+    """Test that creating a command with empty name raises ValueError."""
+    with pytest.raises(ValueError):
+        Command("", "description", lambda: None)
+```
+
+### File Management
+
+**Always specify the full file path** when adding or modifying files:
+```
+✅ Modifying: src/myfasthtml/core/commands.py
+✅ Creating: tests/core/test_new_feature.py
+```
+
+### Error Handling
+
+**When errors occur:**
+1. **Explain the problem clearly first**
+2. **Do not propose a fix immediately**
+3. **Wait for validation** that the diagnosis is correct
+4. Only then propose solutions
+
+## Development Commands

+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+### Core System: Commands
+
+Commands abstract HTMX interactions by encapsulating server-side actions. Located in `src/myfasthtml/core/commands.py`.
+
+**Key classes:**
+- `BaseCommand`: Base class for all commands with HTMX integration
+- `Command`: Standard command that executes a Python callable
+- `LambdaCommand`: Inline command for simple operations
+- `CommandsManager`: Global registry for command execution
+
+**How commands work:**
+1. Create command with action: `cmd = Command("name", "description", callable)`
+2. Command auto-registers with `CommandsManager`
+3. `cmd.get_htmx_params()` generates HTMX attributes (`hx-post`, `hx-vals`)
+4. HTMX posts to `/myfasthtml/commands` route with `c_id`
+5. `CommandsManager` routes to correct command's `execute()` method
+
+**Command customization:**
+```python
+# Change HTMX target and swap
+cmd.htmx(target="#result", swap="innerHTML")
+
+# Bind to observable data (disables swap by default)
+cmd.bind(data_object)
+```
+
+### Core System: Bindings
+
+Bidirectional data binding system connects UI components with Python data objects. Located in `src/myfasthtml/core/bindings.py`.
+
+**Key concepts:**
+- **Observable objects**: Use `make_observable()` from myutils to enable change detection
+- **Three-phase lifecycle**: Create → Activate (bind_ft) → Deactivate
+- **Detection modes**: How changes are detected (ValueChange, AttributePresence, SelectValueChange)
+- **Update modes**: How UI updates (ValueChange, AttributePresence, SelectValueChange)
+- **Data converters**: Transform data between UI and Python representations
+
+**Binding flow:**
+1. User changes input → HTMX posts to `/myfasthtml/bindings`
+2. `Binding.update()` receives form data, updates observable object
+3. Observable triggers change event → `Binding.notify()`
+4. All bound UI elements update via HTMX swap-oob
+
+**Helper usage:**
+```python
+from myfasthtml.controls.helpers import mk
+
+# Bind input and label to same data
+input_elt = Input(name="field")
+label_elt = Label()
+
+mk.manage_binding(input_elt, Binding(data, "attr"))
+mk.manage_binding(label_elt, Binding(data, "attr"))
+```
+
+**Important binding notes:**
+- Elements MUST have a `name` attribute to trigger updates
+- Multiple elements can bind to same data attribute
+- First binding call uses `init_binding=True` to set initial value
+- Bindings route through `/myfasthtml/bindings` endpoint
+
+### Core System: Instances
+
+Session-scoped instance management system. Located in `src/myfasthtml/core/instances.py`.
+
+**Key classes:**
+- `BaseInstance`: Base for all managed instances
+- `SingleInstance`: One instance per parent per session
+- `UniqueInstance`: One instance ever per session (singleton-like)
+- `RootInstance`: Top-level singleton for application
+- `InstancesManager`: Global registry with session-based isolation
+
+**Instance creation pattern:**
+```python
+# __new__ checks registry before creating
+# If instance exists with same (session_id, _id), returns existing
+instance = MyInstance(parent, session, _id="optional")
+```
+
+**Automatic ID generation:**
+- SingleInstance: `snake_case_class_name`
+- UniqueInstance: `snake_case_class_name`
+- Regular BaseInstance: `parent_prefix-uuid`
+
+### Application Setup
+
+**Main entry point**: `create_app()` in `src/myfasthtml/myfastapp.py`
+
+```python
+from myfasthtml.myfastapp import create_app
+
+app, rt = create_app(
+    daisyui=True,           # Include DaisyUI CSS
+    vis=True,               # Include vis-network.js
+    protect_routes=True,    # Enable auth beforeware
+    mount_auth_app=False,   # Mount auth routes
+    base_url=None           # Base URL for auth
+)
+```
+
+**What create_app does:**
+1. Adds MyFastHtml CSS/JS assets via custom static route
+2. Optionally adds DaisyUI 5 + Tailwind CSS 4
+3. Optionally adds vis-network.js
+4. Mounts `/myfasthtml` app for commands and bindings routes
+5. Optionally sets up auth routes and beforeware
+6. Creates AuthProxy instance if auth enabled
+
+### Authentication System
+
+Located in `src/myfasthtml/auth/`. Integrates with FastAPI backend (myauth package).
+
+**Key components:**
+- `auth/utils.py`: JWT helpers, beforeware for route protection
+- `auth/routes.py`: Login, register, logout routes
+- `auth/pages/`: LoginPage, RegisterPage, WelcomePage components
+
+**How auth works:**
+1. Beforeware checks `access_token` in session before each route
+2. Auto-refreshes token if < 5 minutes to expiry
+3. Redirects to `/login` if token invalid/missing
+4. Protected routes receive `auth` parameter with user info
+
+**Session structure:**
+```python
+{
+    'access_token': 'jwt_token',
+    'refresh_token': 'refresh_token',
+    'user_info': {
+        'email': 'user@example.com',
+        'username': 'user',
+        'roles': ['admin'],
+        'id': 'uuid',
+        'created_at': 'timestamp',
+        'updated_at': 'timestamp'
+    }
+}
+```

+
+## Testing System
+
+**Custom test client**: `myfasthtml.test.TestClient` extends FastHTML test client
+
+**Key features:**
+- `user.open(path)`: Navigate to route
+- `user.find_element(selector)`: Find element by CSS selector
+- `user.should_see(text)`: Assert text in response
+- Returns `TestableElement` objects with component-specific methods
+
+**Testable element types:**
+- `TestableInput`: `.send(value)`
+- `TestableCheckbox`: `.check()`, `.uncheck()`, `.toggle()`
+- `TestableTextarea`: `.send(value)`, `.append(text)`, `.clear()`
+- `TestableSelect`: `.select(value)`, `.select_by_text(text)`, `.deselect(value)`
+- `TestableRange`: `.set(value)`, `.increase()`, `.decrease()`
+- `TestableRadio`: `.select()`
+- `TestableButton`: `.click()`
+- `TestableDatalist`: `.send(value)`, `.select_suggestion(value)`
+
+**Test pattern:**
+```python
+def test_component(user, rt):
+    @rt("/")
+    def index():
+        data = Data("initial")
+        component = Component(name="field")
+        label = Label()
+
+        mk.manage_binding(component, Binding(data))
+        mk.manage_binding(label, Binding(data))
+
+        return component, label
+
+    user.open("/")
+    user.should_see("initial")
+
+    elem = user.find_element("selector")
+    elem.method("new_value")
+    user.should_see("new_value")
+```
+
+## Important Patterns
+
+### Creating interactive buttons with commands
+```python
+from myfasthtml.controls.helpers import mk
+from myfasthtml.core.commands import Command
+
+def action():
+    return "Result"
+
+cmd = Command("action", "Description", action)
+button = mk.button("Click", command=cmd)
+```
+
+### Bidirectional binding
+```python
+from myutils.observable import make_observable
+from myfasthtml.core.bindings import Binding
+from myfasthtml.controls.helpers import mk
+
+data = make_observable(Data("value"))
+input_elt = Input(name="field")
+label_elt = Label()
+
+mk.manage_binding(input_elt, Binding(data, "value"))
+mk.manage_binding(label_elt, Binding(data, "value"))
+```
+
+### Using helpers (mk class)
+```python
+# Button with command
+mk.button("Text", command=cmd, cls="btn-primary")
+
+# Icon with command
+mk.icon(icon_svg, size=20, command=cmd)
+
+# Label with icon
+mk.label("Text", icon=icon_svg, size="sm")
+
+# Generic wrapper
+mk.mk(element, command=cmd, binding=binding)
+```
+
+## Common Gotchas
+
+1. **Bindings require `name` attribute**: Without it, form data won't include the field
+2. **Commands auto-register**: Don't manually register with CommandsManager
+3. **Instances use __new__ caching**: Same (session, id) returns existing instance
+4. **First binding needs init**: Use `init_binding=True` to set initial value
+5. **Observable required for bindings**: Use `make_observable()` from myutils
+6. **Auth routes need base_url**: Pass `base_url` to `create_app()` for proper auth API calls

+# Mouse Support - Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+The mouse support library provides keyboard-like binding capabilities for mouse actions. It supports simple clicks, modified clicks (with Ctrl/Shift/Alt), and sequences of clicks with smart timeout logic.
+
+## Features
+
+### Supported Mouse Actions
+
+**Basic Actions**:
+- `click` - Left click
+- `right_click` (or `rclick`) - Right click (contextmenu)
+
+**Modified Actions**:
+- `ctrl+click` (or `ctrl+rclick`) - Ctrl+Click (or Cmd+Click on Mac)
+- `shift+click` (or `shift+rclick`) - Shift+Click
+- `alt+click` (or `alt+rclick`) - Alt+Click
+- `ctrl+shift+click` - Multiple modifiers
+- Any combination of modifiers
+
+**Sequences**:
+- `click right_click` (or `click rclick`) - Click then right-click within 500ms
+- `click click` - Double click sequence
+- `ctrl+click click` - Ctrl+click then normal click
+- Any sequence of actions
+
+**Note**: `rclick` is an alias for `right_click` and can be used interchangeably.
+
+### Smart Timeout Logic
+
+Same as keyboard support:
+- If **any element** has a longer sequence possible, **all matching elements wait**
+- Timeout is 500ms between actions
+- Immediate trigger if no longer sequences exist
+
+### Multiple Element Support
+
+Multiple elements can listen to the same mouse action and all will trigger simultaneously.
+
+## Configuration Format
+
+Uses HTMX configuration objects (same as keyboard support):
+
+```javascript
+const combinations = {
+  "click": {
+    "hx-post": "/handle-click",
+    "hx-target": "#result"
+  },
+  "ctrl+click": {
+    "hx-post": "/handle-ctrl-click",
+    "hx-swap": "innerHTML"
+  },
+  "rclick": {  // Alias for right_click
+    "hx-post": "/context-menu"
+  },
+  "click rclick": {  // Can use rclick in sequences too
+    "hx-post": "/sequence-action",
+    "hx-vals": {"type": "sequence"}
+  }
+};
+
+add_mouse_support('my-element', JSON.stringify(combinations));
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### add_mouse_support(elementId, combinationsJson)
+
+Adds mouse support to an element.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `elementId` (string): ID of the HTML element
+- `combinationsJson` (string): JSON string of combinations with HTMX configs
+
+**Returns**: void
+
+**Example**:
+```javascript
+add_mouse_support('button1', JSON.stringify({
+  "click": {"hx-post": "/click"},
+  "ctrl+click": {"hx-post": "/ctrl-click"}
+}));
+```
+
+### remove_mouse_support(elementId)
+
+Removes mouse support from an element.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `elementId` (string): ID of the HTML element
+
+**Returns**: void
+
+**Side effects**:
+- If last element: detaches global event listeners and cleans up all state
+
+**Example**:
+```javascript
+remove_mouse_support('button1');
+```
+
+## Automatic Parameters
+
+The library automatically adds these parameters to every HTMX request:
+- `combination` - The mouse combination that triggered the action (e.g., "ctrl+click")
+- `has_focus` - Boolean indicating if the element had focus when clicked
+- `is_inside` - Boolean indicating if the click was inside the element
+  - For `click`: `true` if clicked inside element, `false` if clicked outside
+  - For `right_click`: always `true` (only triggers when clicking on element)
+- `has_focus` - Boolean indicating if the element had focus when the action triggered
+- `clicked_inside` - Boolean indicating if the click was inside the element or outside
+
+### Parameter Details
+
+**`has_focus`**: 
+- `true` if the registered element currently has focus
+- `false` otherwise
+- Useful for knowing if the element was the active element
+
+**`clicked_inside`**:
+- For `click` actions: `true` if clicked on/inside the element, `false` if clicked outside
+- For `right_click` actions: always `true` (since right-click only triggers on the element)
+- Useful for "click outside to close" logic
+
+**Example values sent**:
+```javascript
+// User clicks inside a modal
+{
+  combination: "click",
+  has_focus: true,
+  clicked_inside: true
+}
+
+// User clicks outside the modal (modal still gets triggered because click is global)
+{
+  combination: "click",
+  has_focus: false,
+  clicked_inside: false  // Perfect for closing the modal!
+}
+
+// User right-clicks on an item
+{
+  combination: "right_click",
+  has_focus: false,
+  clicked_inside: true  // Always true for right_click
+}
+```
+
+## Python Integration
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```python
+combinations = {
+    "click": {
+        "hx-post": "/item/select"
+    },
+    "ctrl+click": {
+        "hx-post": "/item/select-multiple",
+        "hx-vals": json.dumps({"mode": "multi"})
+    },
+    "right_click": {
+        "hx-post": "/item/context-menu",
+        "hx-target": "#context-menu",
+        "hx-swap": "innerHTML"
+    }
+}
+
+f"add_mouse_support('{element_id}', '{json.dumps(combinations)}')"
+```
+
+### Sequences
+
+```python
+combinations = {
+    "click": {
+        "hx-post": "/single-click"
+    },
+    "click click": {
+        "hx-post": "/double-click-sequence"
+    },
+    "click right_click": {
+        "hx-post": "/click-then-right-click"
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Multiple Elements
+
+```python
+# Item 1
+item1_combinations = {
+    "click": {"hx-post": f"/item/1/select"},
+    "ctrl+click": {"hx-post": f"/item/1/toggle"}
+}
+f"add_mouse_support('item-1', '{json.dumps(item1_combinations)}')"
+
+# Item 2
+item2_combinations = {
+    "click": {"hx-post": f"/item/2/select"},
+    "ctrl+click": {"hx-post": f"/item/2/toggle"}
+}
+f"add_mouse_support('item-2', '{json.dumps(item2_combinations)}')"
+```
+
+## Behavior Details
+
+### Click vs Right-Click Behavior
+
+**IMPORTANT**: The library handles `click` and `right_click` differently:
+
+**`click` (global detection)**:
+- Triggers for ALL registered elements, regardless of where you click
+- Useful for "click outside to close" functionality (modals, dropdowns, popups)
+- Example: Modal registered with `click` → clicking anywhere on the page triggers the modal's click action
+
+**`right_click` (element-specific detection)**:
+- Triggers ONLY when you right-click on (or inside) the registered element
+- Right-clicking outside the element does nothing and shows browser's context menu
+- This preserves normal browser behavior while adding custom actions on your elements
+
+**Example use case**:
+```javascript
+// Modal that closes when clicking anywhere
+add_mouse_support('modal', JSON.stringify({
+  "click": {"hx-post": "/close-modal"}  // Triggers even if you click outside modal
+}));
+
+// Context menu that only appears on element
+add_mouse_support('item', JSON.stringify({
+  "right_click": {"hx-post": "/item-menu"}  // Only triggers when right-clicking the item
+}));
+```
+
+### Modifier Keys (Cross-Platform)
+
+- **Windows/Linux**: `ctrl+click` uses Ctrl key
+- **Mac**: `ctrl+click` uses Cmd (⌘) key OR Ctrl key
+- This follows standard web conventions for cross-platform compatibility
+
+### Input Context Protection
+
+Mouse actions are **disabled** when clicking in input fields:
+- `<input>` elements
+- `<textarea>` elements  
+- Any `contenteditable` element
+
+This ensures normal text selection and interaction works in forms.
+
+### Right-Click Menu
+
+The contextmenu (right-click menu) is prevented with `preventDefault()` when:
+- A `right_click` action is configured for the element
+- The element is NOT an input/textarea/contenteditable
+
+### Event Bubbling
+
+The library checks if the click target OR any parent element is registered:
+```html
+<div id="container">
+  <button>Click me</button>
+</div>
+```
+If `container` is registered, clicking the button will trigger the container's actions.
+
+## Examples
+
+### Using Aliases
+
+You can use `rclick` instead of `right_click` anywhere:
+
+```javascript
+// These are equivalent
+const config1 = {
+  "right_click": {"hx-post": "/menu"}
+};
+
+const config2 = {
+  "rclick": {"hx-post": "/menu"}  // Shorter alias
+};
+
+// Works in sequences too
+const config3 = {
+  "click rclick": {"hx-post": "/sequence"}
+};
+
+// Works with modifiers
+const config4 = {
+  "ctrl+rclick": {"hx-post": "/ctrl-right-click"}
+};
+```
+
+### Context Menu
+
+```javascript
+const combinations = {
+  "right_click": {
+    "hx-post": "/show-context-menu",
+    "hx-target": "#menu",
+    "hx-swap": "innerHTML"
+  }
+};
+```
+
+### Close Modal/Popup on Click Outside
+
+Since `click` is detected globally (anywhere on the page), it's perfect for "click outside to close":
+
+```javascript
+// Modal element
+const modalCombinations = {
+  "click": {
+    "hx-post": "/close-modal",
+    "hx-target": "#modal",
+    "hx-swap": "outerHTML"
+  }
+};
+add_mouse_support('modal', JSON.stringify(modalCombinations));
+
+// Now clicking ANYWHERE on the page will trigger the handler
+// Your backend receives:
+// - clicked_inside: true (if clicked on modal) → maybe keep it open
+// - clicked_inside: false (if clicked outside) → close it!
+```
+
+**Backend example (Python/Flask)**:
+```python
+@app.route('/close-modal', methods=['POST'])
+def close_modal():
+    clicked_inside = request.form.get('clicked_inside') == 'true'
+    
+    if clicked_inside:
+        # User clicked inside the modal - keep it open
+        return render_template('modal_content.html')
+    else:
+        # User clicked outside - close the modal
+        return ''  # Empty response removes the modal
+```
+
+**Note**: The click handler on the modal element will trigger for all clicks on the page, not just clicks on the modal itself. Use the `clicked_inside` parameter to determine the appropriate action.
+
+### Multi-Select List
+
+```javascript
+const combinations = {
+  "click": {
+    "hx-post": "/select-item",
+    "hx-vals": {"mode": "single"}
+  },
+  "ctrl+click": {
+    "hx-post": "/select-item",
+    "hx-vals": {"mode": "toggle"}
+  },
+  "shift+click": {
+    "hx-post": "/select-range",
+    "hx-vals": {"mode": "range"}
+  }
+};
+```
+
+### Interactive Canvas/Drawing
+
+```javascript
+const combinations = {
+  "click": {
+    "hx-post": "/draw-point"
+  },
+  "ctrl+click": {
+    "hx-post": "/draw-special"
+  },
+  "click click": {
+    "hx-post": "/confirm-action"
+  }
+};
+```
+
+### Drag-and-Drop Alternative
+
+```javascript
+const combinations = {
+  "click": {
+    "hx-post": "/select-source"
+  },
+  "click click": {
+    "hx-post": "/set-destination"
+  }
+};
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Clicks not detected
+
+- Verify the element exists and has the correct ID
+- Check browser console for errors
+- Ensure HTMX is loaded before mouse_support.js
+
+### Right-click menu still appears
+
+- Check if element is in input context (input/textarea)
+- Verify the combination is configured correctly
+- Check browser console for configuration errors
+
+### Sequences not working
+
+- Ensure clicks happen within 500ms timeout
+- Check if longer sequences exist (causes waiting)
+- Verify the combination string format (space-separated)
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Architecture
+
+- **Global listeners** on `document` for `click` and `contextmenu` events
+- **Tree-based matching** using prefix trees (same as keyboard support)
+- **Single timeout** for all elements (sequence-based, not element-based)
+- **Independent from keyboard support** (separate registry and timeouts)
+
+### Performance
+
+- Single event listener regardless of number of elements
+- O(n) matching where n is sequence length
+- Efficient memory usage with automatic cleanup
+
+### Browser Compatibility
+
+- Modern browsers (ES6+ required)
+- Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge
+- Requires HTMX library
+
+## Notes
+
+- Timeout value is the same as keyboard support (500ms) but in separate variable
+- Can be used independently or alongside keyboard support
+- Does not interfere with normal mouse behavior in inputs
+- Element must exist in DOM when `add_mouse_support()` is called
+- **Alias**: `rclick` can be used interchangeably with `right_click` for shorter syntax

+    <p><strong>Element 1 - All Actions:</strong></p>
+    <ul>
+      <li><code>click</code> - Simple left click</li>
+      <li><code>right_click</code> - Right click (context menu blocked)</li>
+      <li><code>ctrl+click</code> - Ctrl/Cmd + Click</li>
+      <li><code>shift+click</code> - Shift + Click</li>
+      <li><code>ctrl+shift+click</code> - Ctrl + Shift + Click</li>
+      <li><code>click right_click</code> - Click then right-click within 500ms</li>
+      <li><code>click click</code> - Click twice in sequence</li>
+    </ul>
+    <p><strong>Element 2 - Using rclick alias:</strong></p>
+    <ul>
+      <li><code>click</code> - Simple click</li>
+      <li><code>rclick</code> - Right click (using rclick alias)</li>
+      <li><code>click rclick</code> - Click then right-click sequence (using alias)</li>
+    </ul>
+    <p><strong>Note:</strong> <code>rclick</code> is an alias for <code>right_click</code> and works identically.</p>
+    <p><strong>Tip:</strong> Try different click combinations! Right-click menu will be blocked on test elements.</p>
+  </div>
+
+  <div class="note">
+    <strong>Click Behavior:</strong> The <code>click</code> action is detected GLOBALLY (anywhere on the page).
+    Try clicking outside the test elements - the click action will still trigger! The <code>is_inside</code>
+    parameter tells you if the click was inside or outside the element (perfect for "close popup if clicked outside" logic).
+  </div>
+
+  <div class="note">
+    <strong>Right-Click Behavior:</strong> The <code>right_click</code> action is detected ONLY when clicking ON the element.
+    Try right-clicking outside the test elements - the browser's context menu will appear normally.
+  </div>
+
+  <div class="note">
+    <strong>Mac Users:</strong> Use Cmd (⌘) instead of Ctrl. The library handles cross-platform compatibility automatically.
