Relates to #162

Severity: Medium

Problem

The document card shows "Maintenance / Type: manual / Vehicle: YOTA" with view/edit/delete icons, but no upload date, no file size, no thumbnail preview. It's hard to identify documents at scale.

Recommendation

  • Add upload date to document cards
  • Add file type icon (PDF, image, etc.)
  • Consider a thumbnail preview for image/PDF documents

Acceptance Criteria

  • Document cards show upload date
  • Document cards show a file type icon
  • Cards remain scannable and not cluttered
  • Tested on mobile (320px, 768px) and desktop (1920px)

Implementation Plan (from #162 -- Milestone 16)

Phase: 7 (Document improvements) | Priority: Medium | Depends on: None | Blocks: None

Context

Document cards lack upload date and file type information, making it harder to scan and identify documents at a glance.

Implementation

1. In frontend/src/features/documents/components/DocumentCardMetadata.tsx:

  • Add upload date display using createdAt field from DocumentRecord type (line 22 of documents.types.ts)
  • Format as "Uploaded {relative time}" using date-fns/formatDistanceToNow or similar (e.g., "Uploaded 3 days ago")
  • Add file type icon based on contentType field:
    • application/pdf -> PictureAsPdfRoundedIcon
    • image/* -> ImageRoundedIcon
    • Everything else -> InsertDriveFileRoundedIcon
  • Place icon and upload date in card header area

2. Ensure consistent rendering in:

  • frontend/src/features/documents/pages/DocumentsPage.tsx (desktop card grid)
  • frontend/src/features/documents/mobile/DocumentsMobileScreen.tsx (same card rendering pattern)

Files

  • frontend/src/features/documents/components/DocumentCardMetadata.tsx
  • frontend/src/features/documents/pages/DocumentsPage.tsx (card rendering)
  • frontend/src/features/documents/mobile/DocumentsMobileScreen.tsx

Commit Convention

chore: add upload date and file type icon to document cards (refs #172)

Test Criteria

  • Cards show relative upload date (e.g., "Uploaded 3 days ago")
  • Cards show appropriate file type icon (PDF, image, or generic file)
  • Cards remain clean and scannable (not cluttered)
  • Both desktop card grid and mobile card views show the new metadata
  • Verify on mobile (320px, 768px) and desktop (1920px) viewports

Branch

Work on branch issue-162-ux-design-audit-cleanup (shared with all #162 sub-issues)
