## Project Scaffolding
Generate a new Next.js or React project with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and best practice configurations.
### Workflow: Create New Frontend Project
1. Run the scaffolder with your project name and template:
```bash
python scripts/frontend_scaffolder.py my-app --template nextjs
```
2. Add optional features (auth, api, forms, testing, storybook):
```bash
python scripts/frontend_scaffolder.py dashboard --template nextjs --features auth,api
```
3. Navigate to the project and install dependencies:
```bash
cd my-app && npm install
```
4. Start the development server:
```bash
npm run dev
```
### Scaffolder Options
| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `--template nextjs` | Next.js 14+ with App Router and Server Components |
| `--template react` | React + Vite with TypeScript |
| `--features auth` | Add NextAuth.js authentication |
| `--features api` | Add React Query + API client |
| `--features forms` | Add React Hook Form + Zod validation |
| `--features testing` | Add Vitest + Testing Library |
| `--dry-run` | Preview files without creating them |
### Generated Structure (Next.js)
```

├── app/
│ ├── layout.tsx # Root layout with fonts
│ ├── page.tsx # Home page
│ ├── globals.css # Tailwind + CSS variables

## Component Generation
Generate React components with TypeScript, tests, and Storybook stories.
### Workflow: Create a New Component
1. Generate a client component:
```bash
python scripts/component_generator.py Button --dir src/components/ui
```
2. Generate a server component:
```bash
python scripts/component_generator.py ProductCard --type server
```
3. Generate with test and story files:
```bash
python scripts/component_generator.py UserProfile --with-test --with-story
```
4. Generate a custom hook:
```bash
python scripts/component_generator.py FormValidation --type hook
```
### Generator Options
| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `--type client` | Client component with 'use client' (default) |
| `--type server` | Async server component |
| `--type hook` | Custom React hook |
| `--with-test` | Include test file |
| `--with-story` | Include Storybook story |
| `--flat` | Create in output dir without subdirectory |
| `--dry-run` | Preview without creating files |
### Generated Component Example
```tsx
'use client';
import { useState } from 'react';
import { cn } from '@/lib/utils';
interface ButtonProps {
className?: string;
children?: React.ReactNode;
}
export function Button({ className, children }: ButtonProps) {
return (
<div className={cn('', className)}>
{children}
</div>
);
}
```

## Bundle Analysis
Analyze package.json and project structure for bundle optimization opportunities.
### Workflow: Optimize Bundle Size
1. Run the analyzer on your project:
```bash
python scripts/bundle_analyzer.py /path/to/project
```
2. Review the health score and issues:
```
Bundle Health Score: 75/100 (C)
HEAVY DEPENDENCIES:
moment (290KB)
Alternative: date-fns (12KB) or dayjs (2KB)
lodash (71KB)
Alternative: lodash-es with tree-shaking
```
3. Apply the recommended fixes by replacing heavy dependencies.
4. Re-run with verbose mode to check import patterns:
```bash
python scripts/bundle_analyzer.py . --verbose
```
### Bundle Score Interpretation
| Score | Grade | Action |
|-------|-------|--------|
| 90-100 | A | Bundle is well-optimized |
| 80-89 | B | Minor optimizations available |
| 70-79 | C | Replace heavy dependencies |
| 60-69 | D | Multiple issues need attention |
| 0-59 | F | Critical bundle size problems |
### Heavy Dependencies Detected
The analyzer identifies these common heavy packages:
| Package | Size | Alternative |
|---------|------|-------------|
| moment | 290KB | date-fns (12KB) or dayjs (2KB) |
| lodash | 71KB | lodash-es with tree-shaking |
| axios | 14KB | Native fetch or ky (3KB) |
| jquery | 87KB | Native DOM APIs |
| @mui/material | Large | shadcn/ui or Radix UI |

## React Patterns
Reference: `references/react_patterns.md`
### Compound Components
Share state between related components:
```tsx
const Tabs = ({ children }) => {
const [active, setActive] = useState(0);
return (
<TabsContext.Provider value={{ active, setActive }}>
{children}
</TabsContext.Provider>
);
};
Tabs.List = TabList;
Tabs.Panel = TabPanel;
// Usage
<Tabs>
<Tabs.List>
<Tabs.Tab>One</Tabs.Tab>
<Tabs.Tab>Two</Tabs.Tab>
</Tabs.List>
<Tabs.Panel>Content 1</Tabs.Panel>
<Tabs.Panel>Content 2</Tabs.Panel>
</Tabs>
```
### Custom Hooks
Extract reusable logic:
```tsx
function useDebounce<T>(value: T, delay = 500): T {
const [debouncedValue, setDebouncedValue] = useState(value);
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setTimeout(() => setDebouncedValue(value), delay);
return () => clearTimeout(timer);
}, [value, delay]);
return debouncedValue;
}
// Usage
const debouncedSearch = useDebounce(searchTerm, 300);
```
### Render Props
Share rendering logic:
```tsx
function DataFetcher({ url, render }) {
const [data, setData] = useState(null);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
useEffect(() => {
fetch(url).then(r => r.json()).then(setData).finally(() => setLoading(false));
}, [url]);
return render({ data, loading });
}
// Usage
<DataFetcher
url="/api/users"
render={({ data, loading }) =>
loading ? <Spinner /> : <UserList users={data} />
}
/>
```

## Next.js Optimization
Reference: `references/nextjs_optimization_guide.md`
### Server vs Client Components
Use Server Components by default. Add 'use client' only when you need:
- Event handlers (onClick, onChange)
- State (useState, useReducer)
- Effects (useEffect)
- Browser APIs
```tsx
// Server Component (default) - no 'use client'
async function ProductPage({ params }) {
const product = await getProduct(params.id); // Server-side fetch
return (
<div>
<h1>{product.name}</h1>
<AddToCartButton productId={product.id} /> {/* Client component */}
</div>
);
}
// Client Component
'use client';
function AddToCartButton({ productId }) {
const [adding, setAdding] = useState(false);
return <button onClick={() => addToCart(productId)}>Add</button>;
}
```
### Image Optimization
```tsx
import Image from 'next/image';
// Above the fold - load immediately
<Image
src="/hero.jpg"
alt="Hero"
width={1200}
height={600}
priority
/>
// Responsive image with fill
<div className="relative aspect-video">
<Image
src="/product.jpg"
alt="Product"
fill
sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 50vw"
className="object-cover"
/>
</div>
```
### Data Fetching Patterns
```tsx
// Parallel fetching
async function Dashboard() {
const [user, stats] = await Promise.all([
getUser(),
getStats()
]);
return <div>...</div>;
}
// Streaming with Suspense
async function ProductPage({ params }) {
return (
<div>
<ProductDetails id={params.id} />
<Suspense fallback={<ReviewsSkeleton />}>
<Reviews productId={params.id} />
</Suspense>
</div>
);
}
```

## Accessibility and Testing
Reference: `references/frontend_best_practices.md`
### Accessibility Checklist
1. **Semantic HTML**: Use proper elements (`<button>`, `<nav>`, `<main>`)
2. **Keyboard Navigation**: All interactive elements focusable
3. **ARIA Labels**: Provide labels for icons and complex widgets
4. **Color Contrast**: Minimum 4.5:1 for normal text
5. **Focus Indicators**: Visible focus states
```tsx
// Accessible button
<button
type="button"
aria-label="Close dialog"
onClick={onClose}
className="focus-visible:ring-2 focus-visible:ring-blue-500"
>
<XIcon aria-hidden="true" />
</button>
// Skip link for keyboard users
<a href="#main-content" className="sr-only focus:not-sr-only">
Skip to main content
</a>
```
### Testing Strategy
```tsx
// Component test with React Testing Library
import { render, screen } from '@testing-library/react';
import userEvent from '@testing-library/user-event';
test('button triggers action on click', async () => {
const onClick = vi.fn();
render(<Button onClick={onClick}>Click me</Button>);
await userEvent.click(screen.getByRole('button'));
expect(onClick).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
});
// Test accessibility
test('dialog is accessible', async () => {
render(<Dialog open={true} title="Confirm" />);
expect(screen.getByRole('dialog')).toBeInTheDocument();
expect(screen.getByRole('dialog')).toHaveAttribute('aria-labelledby');
});
```

## Quick Reference
### Common Next.js Config
```js
// next.config.js
const nextConfig = {
images: {
remotePatterns: [{ hostname: "cdnexamplecom" }],
formats: ['image/avif', 'image/webp'],
},
experimental: {
optimizePackageImports: ['lucide-react', '@heroicons/react'],
},
};
```
### Tailwind CSS Utilities
```tsx
// Conditional classes with cn()
import { cn } from '@/lib/utils';
<button className={cn(
'px-4 py-2 rounded',
variant === 'primary' && 'bg-blue-500 text-white',
disabled && 'opacity-50 cursor-not-allowed'
)} />
```
### TypeScript Patterns
```tsx
// Props with children
interface CardProps {
className?: string;
children: React.ReactNode;
}
// Generic component
interface ListProps<T> {
items: T[];
renderItem: (item: T) => React.ReactNode;
}
function List<T>({ items, renderItem }: ListProps<T>) {
return <ul>{items.map(renderItem)}</ul>;
}
```
