### 🖥️ Interactive User Interface ✅ COMPLETE

- **File**: `sf_devtools/ui/interactive.py`
- **Features**:
    - Enhanced banner matching original shell script
    - Complete menu system with all 9 options
    - Integrated module navigation
    - Error handling and graceful exit
    - Comprehensive help system
    - Prerequisites validation on startup

## 🚀 Technical Improvements

### Language & Tools

- **Shell Scripts** → **Python 3.8+ with Typer**
- **Basic menus** → **Rich UI with inquirer for selections**
- **Manual error handling** → **Structured exception handling**
- **Shell command execution** → **subprocess with proper error capture**

### Code Quality

- **Modular architecture maintained** with improved separation of concerns
- **Type hints** for better code maintainability
- **Comprehensive docstrings** for all functions and classes
- **Consistent error handling** across all modules
- **Reusable common utilities** to eliminate code duplication

### User Experience

- **Color-coded logging** for better visibility
- **Interactive menus** with arrow key navigation
- **Input validation** and confirmation prompts
- **Progress indicators** and detailed error messages
- **Graceful error recovery** with option to continue or exit

## 🎯 Migration Results
