   - Mermaid ER diagrams (`erDiagram`)
   - PlantUML (`.puml`)
   - GraphViz DOT (`.dot`)
   - Auto-detection of diagram format

3. **Query Builder Layout Fix** ✅
   - Fixed overlap issue between Visual Query Builder and Generated SPARQL section

## 🚀 How to Run (3 Steps)

### Step 1: Navigate to Frontend Directory
```bash
cd /Users/kempersc/apps/glam/frontend
```
⚠️ **CRITICAL**: Must run from `frontend/` directory, NOT project root!

### Step 2: Start Development Server
```bash
npm run dev
```

Expected output:
```
  VITE v5.x.x  ready in XXX ms

  ➜  Local:   http://localhost:5174/
  ➜  Network: use --host to expose
```

### Step 3: Open Browser
Navigate to: **http://localhost:5174/uml-viewer**

## 🎯 Quick Test Checklist

Once the server is running, verify everything works:

### UML Viewer (`/uml-viewer`)
- [ ] Page loads without errors
- [ ] Sidebar shows 14 available diagrams
- [ ] Click "Custodian Multi-Aspect (Mermaid Class)" - diagram renders
- [ ] Drag a node - it moves smoothly
- [ ] Scroll mouse - zoom in/out works
- [ ] Click a node - details panel appears on right
- [ ] Click background - details panel closes
- [ ] Click "Reset View" - canvas returns to center
- [ ] Expand "View Source Code" - shows diagram syntax
- [ ] Switch to ER diagram - new diagram loads

### Query Builder (`/query-builder`)
- [ ] Page loads without errors
- [ ] "Visual Query Builder" title visible at top
- [ ] "SELECT Variables" section visible
- [ ] "WHERE Patterns" section visible
- [ ] "Generated SPARQL" appears BELOW builder (not overlapping)
- [ ] Add a variable - updates SPARQL preview
- [ ] Add a pattern - updates SPARQL preview

## 🔧 Troubleshooting

### Issue 1: npm run dev fails with ENOENT error

**Error Message**:
```
npm error enoent Could not read package.json
```

**Cause**: Running `npm run dev` from wrong directory (project root instead of frontend/)

**Solution**:
```bash
# ❌ WRONG
cd /Users/kempersc/apps/glam
npm run dev

# ✅ CORRECT
cd /Users/kempersc/apps/glam/frontend
npm run dev
```

---

### Issue 2: Port 5174 already in use

**Error Message**:
```
Error: Port 5174 is already in use
```

**Solution**:
```bash
# Find and kill process using port 5174
kill -9 $(lsof -ti:5174)

# Then restart
npm run dev
```

---

### Issue 3: UML diagrams not loading (404 errors)

**Error in Console**:
```
Failed to load: http://localhost:5174/schemas/.../diagram.mmd
```

**Solution**: Schema files not copied to public directory
```bash
cd /Users/kempersc/apps/glam

# Copy schema files
cp schemas/20251121/uml/mermaid/*.mmd frontend/public/schemas/20251121/uml/mermaid/
cp schemas/20251121/uml/plantuml/*.puml frontend/public/schemas/20251121/uml/plantuml/
cp schemas/20251121/uml/graphviz/*.dot frontend/public/schemas/20251121/uml/graphviz/
cp schemas/20251121/uml/erdiagram/*.mmd frontend/public/schemas/20251121/uml/erdiagram/

# Verify files copied
ls -la frontend/public/schemas/20251121/uml/mermaid/

# Restart dev server
cd frontend
npm run dev
```

---

### Issue 4: TypeScript build warnings

**Warning Messages**:
```
TS6133: 'useRef' is declared but its value is never read
TS1484: 'ConnectionDegree' is a type and must be imported...
```

**Note**: These are non-critical warnings. The app runs fine in dev mode. They can be fixed later by:
- Removing unused variables/imports
- Adding `type` keyword to type-only imports
