+
+## Critical Issues
+
+### 🔴 Priority: CRITICAL
+
+#### 1. Memory Leak in RouteViewHost
+**Location:** `SimpleRouter.Avalonia/RouteViewHost.cs:30`
+
+**Issue:** Event handler subscribed but never unsubscribed when Router changes or control is disposed.
+
+```csharp
+router.OnRouteChanged += Router_OnRouteChanged;
+```
+
+**Impact:** Memory leaks in applications with dynamic router changes.
+
+**Fix Required:**
+```csharp
+protected override void OnPropertyChanged(AvaloniaPropertyChangedEventArgs change)
+{
+    base.OnPropertyChanged(change);
+    switch (change.Property.Name)
+    {
+        case nameof(Router):
+            // Unsubscribe from old router
+            if (change.OldValue is IRouter oldRouter)
+            {
+                oldRouter.OnRouteChanged -= Router_OnRouteChanged;
+            }
+            
+            // Subscribe to new router
+            if (change.NewValue is IRouter newRouter)
+            {
+                newRouter.OnRouteChanged += Router_OnRouteChanged;
+                NavigateToRoute(newRouter.Current);
+            }
+            break;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+#### 2. Stack Limit Not Applied
+**Location:** `SimpleRouter/Router.cs:12-15`
+
+**Issue:** Constructor accepts `stackLimit` parameter but never assigns it to `_stackLimit` field.
+
+```csharp
+public Router(RouteFactory createRoute, int stackLimit = 50)
+{
+    _createRoute = createRoute ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(createRoute));
+    // BUG: stackLimit parameter is ignored!
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:** Stack limit is always 50 regardless of constructor parameter.
+
+**Fix Required:**
+```csharp
+public Router(RouteFactory createRoute, int stackLimit = 50)
+{
+    _createRoute = createRoute ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(createRoute));
+    _stackLimit = stackLimit;
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Code Quality Issues
+
+### 🟡 Priority: HIGH
+
+#### 1. Unused Import
+**Location:** `SimpleRouter/Router.cs:1`
+
+**Issue:**
+```csharp
+using System.Net.Sockets; // Not used anywhere
+```
+
+**Fix:** Remove the unused import.
+
+#### 2. Nullable Reference Type Warnings
+**Locations:** Test files have 3 warnings for null literal conversions
+
+**Files:**
+- `AvaloniaRouteViewHostTests.cs:17,53`
+- `RouterTests.cs:303`
+
+**Fix:** Use `null!` or proper nullable annotations in tests.
+
+#### 3. Missing XML Documentation
+**Issue:** Many public APIs lack XML documentation comments.
+
+**Examples:**
+- `IRoute.RouteName` - No description
+- `IRoute.RouterHost` - No description
+- `Router` methods - Minimal documentation
+- `Events.cs` - No documentation on event args properties
+
+**Impact:** IntelliSense provides limited help to library users.
+
+#### 4. Magic Numbers
+**Location:** Throughout `Router.cs`
+
+**Examples:**
+- Stack limit default of 50 (what's the rationale?)
+- Stack index calculations using literals
+
+**Fix:** Add constants with descriptive names and documentation.
+
+---
+
+## Missing Core Features
+
+### 🟡 Priority: HIGH
+
+#### 1. Navigation Guards/Middleware
+**Description:** No way to prevent or intercept navigation.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Authorization checks before navigating
+- Unsaved changes confirmation
+- Conditional navigation based on application state
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+public interface INavigationGuard
+{
+    Task<bool> CanNavigateFrom(IRoute? current, IRoute? next);
+    Task<bool> CanNavigateTo(IRoute? current, IRoute? next);
+}
+```
+
+#### 2. Route Parameters & Query Strings
+**Description:** No structured way to pass parameters beyond constructor args.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Deep linking
+- Bookmarkable routes
+- Passing optional parameters
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+public interface IRoute
+{
+    string RouteName { get; }
+    IRouterHost RouterHost { get; }
+    IReadOnlyDictionary<string, object>? Parameters { get; } // NEW
+}
+
+// Usage:
+router.NavigateTo<UserProfileRoute>(new { userId = "123", tab = "settings" });
+```
+
+#### 3. Navigation Cancellation
+**Description:** No way to cancel in-progress navigation.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Cancel navigation if user navigates away quickly
+- Cancel if validation fails asynchronously
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+public sealed class RouteChangingEventArgs(IRoute? previous, IRoute? next) : EventArgs
+{
+    public IRoute? Previous { get; } = previous;
+    public IRoute? Next { get; } = next;
+    public bool Cancel { get; set; } // NEW
+}
+```
+
+#### 4. Async Navigation Support
+**Description:** All navigation is synchronous.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Load data before navigating
+- Async validation
+- Async guards/middleware
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+Task<IRoute> NavigateToAsync<T>() where T : IRoute;
+Task<IRoute?> NavigateBackAsync();
+```
+
+#### 5. Route State/Data Passing
+**Description:** No way to pass transient state between routes without constructor parameters.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Passing selected item from list to detail view
+- Returning results from modal routes
+- Wizard-style navigation with accumulated state
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+router.NavigateTo<DetailRoute>(state: selectedItem);
+```
+
+### 🟢 Priority: MEDIUM
+
+#### 6. Deep Linking Support
+**Description:** No URI-based routing or route registration.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Restore application state from URL
+- External navigation (e.g., from email links)
+- Bookmarking specific views
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+router.RegisterRoute<HomeRoute>("home");
+router.RegisterRoute<UserProfileRoute>("users/{userId}");
+router.NavigateToUri("users/123");
+```
+
+#### 7. Route Lifecycle Hooks
+**Description:** No hooks for route entry/exit logic.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Initialize data when entering route
+- Cleanup resources when leaving route
+- Track analytics
+
+**Proposed API:**
+```csharp
+public interface IRoutable : IRoute
+{
+    Task OnNavigatedTo(NavigationContext context);
+    Task OnNavigatedFrom(NavigationContext context);
+}
+```
+
+#### 8. Navigation History Management
+**Description:** Basic stack only, no advanced history manipulation.
+
+**Missing:**
+- Clear history
+- Remove specific items from stack
+- Insert items at specific positions
+- History length limits per route type
+
+#### 9. Logging & Diagnostics
+**Description:** No built-in logging or diagnostic information.
+
+**Needed:**
+- Navigation event logging
+- Performance metrics
+- Error tracking
+- Debug mode with detailed traces
+
+**Proposed:**
+```csharp
+public interface IRouterLogger
+{
+    void LogNavigation(IRoute? from, IRoute? to);
+    void LogNavigationFailed(IRoute? from, IRoute? to, Exception ex);
+}
+```
+
+#### 10. Route Caching Strategies
+**Description:** New route instance created on every navigation.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Reuse existing route instances
+- Preserve scroll position and UI state
+- Reduce memory allocations
+
+**Proposed:**
+```csharp
+public enum RouteCachingStrategy
+{
+    AlwaysCreate,      // Current behavior
+    ReuseIfExists,     // Cache and reuse
+    Singleton          // Only one instance ever
+}
+```
+
+#### 11. Source Generators for Performance
+**Description:** No compile-time code generation for route registration and factory optimization.
+
+**Current Problem:**
+- `RouteFactory` delegate relies on reflection or manual factory implementations
+- `ViewLocatorBase.TryDeduceControl()` uses reflection (`Type.GetType`, `Activator.CreateInstance`)
+- Route creation has runtime overhead from reflection
+- No compile-time validation of route configurations
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Auto-generate optimized route factory implementations at compile time
+- Eliminate reflection overhead in route and view creation
+- Generate strongly-typed navigation extension methods
+- Create compile-time route validation and diagnostics
+- Reduce startup time and memory allocations
+- Improve AOT (Ahead-of-Time) compilation compatibility
+
+**Benefits:**
+- **Zero runtime reflection** - All route types known at compile time
+- **Type safety** - Compile-time errors for invalid routes or missing views
+- **Performance** - 10-100x faster route creation (no `Activator.CreateInstance`)
+- **AOT-friendly** - Works with Native AOT compilation
+- **Intellisense support** - Better IDE experience with generated code
+- **Startup time** - Faster application initialization
+
+**Real-World Example:**
+Similar to [StaticViewLocator](https://github.com/wieslawsoltes/StaticViewLocator) by Wiesław Sołtes, which generates static view resolution code for Avalonia, eliminating reflection from view locators.
+
+**Proposed API:**
+
+```csharp
+// 1. Mark router for generation
+[GeneratedRouter]
+public partial class AppRouter : IRouter
+{
+    // Source generator will implement the factory
+}
+
+// 2. Mark routes for registration
+[Route]
+public class HomeRoute : IRoute
+{
+    public HomeRoute(IRouterHost host) { ... }
+}
+
+[Route]
+public class UserProfileRoute : IRoute
+{
+    public UserProfileRoute(IRouterHost host, string userId, int? tab = null) { ... }
+}
+
+// 3. Auto-generated code (example output)
+public partial class AppRouter
+{
+    // Generated static factory dictionary
+    private static readonly Dictionary<Type, Func<IRouterHost, object[], IRoute>> s_routeFactories = new()
+    {
+        [typeof(HomeRoute)] = (host, args) => new HomeRoute(host),
+        [typeof(UserProfileRoute)] = (host, args) => new UserProfileRoute(
+            host, 
+            (string)args[0], 
+            args.Length > 1 ? (int?)args[1] : null),
+    };
+    
+    // Generated strongly-typed navigation extensions
+    public static class Extensions
+    {
+        public static HomeRoute NavigateToHome(this IRouter router)
+            => (HomeRoute)router.NavigateTo<HomeRoute>();
+            
+        public static UserProfileRoute NavigateToUserProfile(
+            this IRouter router, 
+            string userId, 
+            int? tab = null)
+            => (UserProfileRoute)router.NavigateTo<UserProfileRoute>(userId, tab);
+    }
+}
+
+// 4. Usage in application
+router.NavigateToUserProfile("user123", tab: 2); // Strongly-typed, no reflection!
+```
+
+**Generated ViewLocator Enhancement:**
+
+```csharp
+// Mark view locator for generation
+[GeneratedViewLocator]
+public partial class AppViewLocator : ViewLocatorBase
+{
+    // Generated view resolution (similar to StaticViewLocator)
+    private static readonly Dictionary<Type, Func<Control>> s_views = new()
+    {
+        [typeof(HomeRoute)] = () => new HomeView(),
+        [typeof(UserProfileRoute)] = () => new UserProfileView(),
+    };
+    
+    public override Control? ResolveControl(IRoute? route)
+    {
+        if (route is null) return null;
+        
+        var type = route.GetType();
+        return s_views.TryGetValue(type, out var factory) 
+            ? factory() 
+            : null;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Implementation Notes:**
+- Use Roslyn IIncrementalSourceGenerator (C# 9.0+)
+- Generate partial classes and extension methods
+- Support incremental generation for fast builds
+- Provide diagnostics for missing routes/views
+- Convention-based: `*Route` → `*View` mapping
+- Generate XML documentation for generated methods
+- Support for nullable reference types
+- Compatible with Native AOT compilation
+
+**Performance Impact:**
+- Route creation: ~100x faster (static instantiation vs reflection)
+- View resolution: ~10-50x faster (dictionary lookup vs Type.GetType)
+- Memory: Lower allocation (no runtime type resolution)
+- Startup: Faster (no reflection scanning)
+- AOT: Full support (no reflection metadata needed)
+
+### 🟢 Priority: LOW
+
+#### 12. Route Transitions/Animations
+**Description:** Basic content switching, no transition control.
+
+**Note:** Avalonia's `TransitioningContentControl` provides some support, but no programmatic control.
+
+#### 13. Modal/Dialog Route Support
+**Description:** No concept of modal vs. page routes.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Display route as modal dialog
+- Block navigation while modal is active
+- Return values from modal routes
+
+#### 14. Nested Routers
+**Description:** No explicit support for nested routing hierarchies.
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Master-detail layouts with independent navigation
+- Tab-based navigation
+- Multi-pane applications
+
+#### 15. Route Templates/Conventions
+**Description:** No way to define route naming conventions or patterns.
