Active docs/ was stub scaffolding while the real docs sat in docs/_archive/. Restore and correct them, and record the Phase 0 work. - docs/architecture/current.md: verified system map (from archived SYSTEM_OVERVIEW, 9 corrections against code). - docs/research/competitors.md: sourced competitor analysis (from archived PRODUCT_RESEARCH, feature matrix corrected). - docs/decisions/ADR-002-job-application-model.md: the Job/JobApplication split. - docs/application-discovery-report.md, docs/implementation-roadmap.md, docs/phase-0-foundation-report.md, docs/career-workspace-branch-assessment.md. - Remove 10 zero-byte placeholder files that advertised content that never existed.

|
|

# Long-Term Vision
|
|
|
|
Jobjakt should become the user's personal career operating system.
|
|
|
|
Instead of storing job applications in spreadsheets, CVs in random folders, and career information across multiple platforms, users maintain one central workspace.
|
|
|
|
The application understands:
|
|
|
|
- Their career history.
|
|
- Their skills.
|
|
- Their experience.
|
|
- Their goals.
|
|
- Their applications.
|
|
|
|
It then helps transform this information into useful career outputs.

# Product Positioning
|
|
|
|
Jobjakt is not:
|
|
|
|
- A simple job board.
|
|
- A basic Kanban board.
|
|
- Only a CV generator.
|
|
- Only an AI writing assistant.
|
|
|
|
Jobjakt is:
|
|
|
|
A career workspace that helps users manage the entire job application lifecycle.
