# Pull Request Summary: Add PDF Conversion Support

## ๐Ÿ“„ Overview

This pull request adds comprehensive **PDF-to-image conversion** functionality to FileFlex, expanding the supported file types from 35 to 36+ formats while maintaining the core principle of client-side processing for privacy and unlimited usage.

## ๐ŸŽฏ What's Added

### Core Feature: PDF โ†’ Image Conversion
- **Supported Output Formats**: PNG, JPG, WebP
- **Processing Method**: Client-side using PDF.js WebAssembly

- **Privacy**: Files never leave the user's browser
- **Scope**: Single-page conversion (first page of PDF)

### User Interface Enhancements
- **File Upload**: PDF files now accepted in drag-and-drop interface
- **Format Selection**: PDF conversion options appear in format dropdown
- **File Management**: Added cross (ร—) buttons for removing converted files
- **Error Handling**: Updated error messages to include PDF support
- **Visual Feedback**: PDF file icon integration

## ๐Ÿ”ง Technical Implementation

### New Files Created
1. **`utils/convert-pdf.ts`** (166 lines)
- PDF.js WebAssembly integration
- Canvas-based PDF rendering
- TypeScript interfaces for PDF conversion
- Fallback system for compatibility issues

2. **`WARP.md`** (128 lines)
- Development guidelines for future contributors
- Architecture documentation
- Common development commands

## ๐Ÿ—๏ธ Architecture Decisions

### 1. PDF.js Integration Strategy
- **Dynamic CDN Loading**: Uses cdnjs.cloudflare.com for reliability
- **Client-Side Only**: No server-side PDF processing
- **Fallback System**: Graceful handling of PDF.js loading failures
- **Memory Management**: Proper cleanup of PDF and canvas resources

### 2. Separation of Concerns
- **Modular Design**: PDF conversion isolated in separate utility
- **Type Safety**: Comprehensive TypeScript definitions
- **Error Boundaries**: Robust error handling without affecting other conversions

### 3. UI/UX Consistency
- **Existing Patterns**: Follows established UI patterns for other file types
- **Progressive Enhancement**: PDF support seamlessly integrated
- **Accessibility**: Maintains existing accessibility standards

## ๐Ÿงช Testing & Quality Assurance

### Functionality Tested
- โœ… PDF file upload and validation
- โœ… Format selection (PNG, JPG, WebP)
