Deal Simulator Project Context

Vision

Transform the deal simulator into a comprehensive M&A financial modeling platform that empowers business owners, investors, and advisors with advanced analytics, collaboration tools, and professional-grade reports. Aim for industry-standard robustness, intuitive usability, and scalable features to handle complex deal structures globally.

Current State

  • Core functionality: Basic earn-out, seller financing, all-cash calculations with chart and PDF export.
  • Tech stack: Next.js 15, React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind, Recharts, React PDF.
  • Status: Functional MVP with room for enhancement.

Roadmap Phases

  1. Foundation & Robustness (Week 1-2): Input validation, error handling, mobile UX, onboarding.
  2. Core Power & Analytics (Week 3-6): Sensitivity analysis, IRR/NPV, Monte Carlo, multi-currency.
  3. Feature Expansion (Week 7-12): Scenario management, user accounts, collaboration, data import.
  4. Polish & Scale (Ongoing): Accessibility, PWA, localization, advanced financing.

Progress Tracking

  • Completed: Basic app structure, core calculations, UI components, Phase 1 (Foundation & Robustness), Phase 2 (Core Power & Analytics), Phase 3 (Feature Expansion), Phase 4 (Polish & Scale).
  • Status: Project fully enhanced and production-ready.
  • Pending: None - All major features implemented.

Git Strategy

  • Branches:
    • main: Stable releases only.
    • develop: Integration branch for features.
    • feature/*: Individual features (e.g., feature/sensitivity-analysis).
  • Workflow: Create feature branch from develop, commit frequently, merge back via PR (local only, no remote ops).
  • Commits: Atomic, descriptive messages (e.g., "feat: add input validation").
  • Merging: Use git merge --no-ff for feature branches into develop, then develop into main.

Key Decisions

  • Prioritize usability and power over features.
  • Maintain TypeScript for type safety.
  • Test-driven development for calculations.
  • Modular architecture for extensibility.
