This PR adds a fully-featured modern calculator web application to the repository, integrating seamlessly with the existing ConceptKeep platform.

Features Implemented

Core Calculator Functionality

  • Basic Operations: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division with proper operator precedence
  • Scientific Functions: Square root (√), power (x²), percentage (%), reciprocal (1/x), sign change (±)
  • Advanced Features: Decimal support, clear all (AC), clear entry (CE)
  • Input Methods: Both mouse clicks and keyboard input supported

User Interface

  • Modern Design: Clean, responsive interface using CSS modules that matches the existing design system
  • Dark/Light Mode: Full theme support that adapts to the application's theme toggle
  • Responsive Layout: Mobile-first design that works across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices
  • Button Variants: Different styling for numbers, operators, functions, and special actions

History & State Management

  • Calculation History: Toggleable history panel showing past calculations with timestamps
  • Expression Display: Real-time display of current expression and results
  • Error Handling: Graceful handling of invalid expressions with user-friendly error messages
  • Persistent State: History maintained during the session

Security & Performance

  • Safe Evaluation: Uses Function constructor instead of eval() for secure expression evaluation
  • Input Validation: Regex-based validation to prevent injection attacks
  • Efficient Rendering: Optimized React components with proper state management
  • Memory Management: History limited to last 50 calculations to prevent memory issues

Technical Implementation

The calculator is built using modern React patterns with TypeScript:

  • Component Architecture: Modular design with separate components for buttons, display, history, and main calculator logic
  • State Management: React hooks for efficient state updates and side effects
  • Utility Functions: Dedicated calculator engine with comprehensive mathematical operations
  • CSS Modules: Scoped styling that doesn't interfere with existing styles
  • Integration: Added to existing routing system and navigation sidebar

Integration

The calculator is seamlessly integrated into the existing ConceptKeep application:

  • Added to the main navigation sidebar with a calculator icon
  • Follows the same routing patterns as other pages
  • Uses the existing theme system and design tokens
  • Maintains consistency with the overall user experience

The implementation provides a complete, production-ready calculator that enhances the platform's utility while maintaining the high-quality standards of the existing codebase.

This pull request was created as a result of the following prompt from Copilot chat.

Create a modern calculator web application within the repository. The calculator should have a clean, modern UI (using React), support both basic and scientific operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, square root, power, percentage, etc.), and display a history of calculations. The styling should be responsive and visually appealing, making use of CSS modules or styled-components. Include the following files:

  1. src/components/Calculator.jsx — Main calculator logic and layout.
  2. src/components/CalculatorButton.jsx — Reusable button component.
  3. src/components/Display.jsx — Shows current input and result.
  4. src/components/History.jsx — Shows calculation history.
  5. src/App.jsx — App entry point integrating Calculator.
  6. src/index.js — ReactDOM render setup.
  7. src/App.module.css — Styles for the app and calculator.
  8. public/index.html — Basic HTML template.

Add any additional helper files as needed (e.g., utils for calculation logic). Ensure the code is modular and well-commented.
