Code Standards

Component Pattern

import { forwardRef } from "react";
import { cn } from "@/utils/cn";

interface ButtonProps extends React.ButtonHTMLAttributes<HTMLButtonElement> {
  variant?: "default" | "outline" | "ghost";
  size?: "sm" | "md" | "lg";
}

const Button = forwardRef<HTMLButtonElement, ButtonProps>(
  ({ className, variant = "default", size = "md", ...props }, ref) => {
    return (
      <button
        ref={ref}
        className={cn(
          "inline-flex items-center justify-center rounded-md font-medium",
          variants[variant],
          sizes[size],
          className
        )}
        {...props}
      />
    );
  }
);
Button.displayName = "Button";

export { Button };

Custom Hook Pattern

import { useQuery, useMutation, useQueryClient } from "@tanstack/react-query";

export function useUsers() {
  return useQuery({
    queryKey: ["users"],
    queryFn: () => userService.getAll(),
  });
}

export function useCreateUser() {
  const queryClient = useQueryClient();

  return useMutation({
    mutationFn: userService.create,
    onSuccess: () => {
      queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: ["users"] });
    },
  });
}

Form Pattern (React Hook Form + Zod)

import { useForm } from "react-hook-form";
import { zodResolver } from "@hookform/resolvers/zod";
import { z } from "zod";

const schema = z.object({
  email: z.string().email(),
  password: z.string().min(8),
});

type FormData = z.infer<typeof schema>;

export function LoginForm() {
  const { register, handleSubmit, formState: { errors } } = useForm<FormData>({
    resolver: zodResolver(schema),
  });

  const onSubmit = (data: FormData) => {
    // Handle submission
  };

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <input {...register("email")} />
      {errors.email && <span>{errors.email.message}</span>}
      <input type= {("")} />
      {errors.password && {errors.password.message}}
      Login
    
  );
}

TanStack Router Setup

// router.tsx
import { createRouter, createRootRoute, createRoute } from "@tanstack/react-router";
import { RootLayout } from "./layouts/RootLayout";
import { HomePage } from "./pages/HomePage";
import { DashboardPage } from "./pages/DashboardPage";

const rootRoute = createRootRoute({
  component: RootLayout,
});

const indexRoute = createRoute({
  getParentRoute: () => rootRoute,
  path: "/",
  component: HomePage,
});

const dashboardRoute = createRoute({
  getParentRoute: () => rootRoute,
  path: "/dashboard",
  component: DashboardPage,
});

const routeTree = rootRoute.addChildren([indexRoute, dashboardRoute]);

export const router = createRouter({ routeTree });

Data Table Pattern

import { useReactTable, getCoreRowModel, getPaginationRowModel } from "@tanstack/react-table";

const columns = [
  { accessorKey: "name", header: "Name" },
  { accessorKey: "email", header: "Email" },
  { accessorKey: "status", header: "Status" },
];

export function UsersTable({ data }) {
  const table = useReactTable({
    data,
    columns,
    getCoreRowModel: getCoreRowModel(),
    getPaginationRowModel: getPaginationRowModel(),
  });

  return (
    <Table>
      <TableHeader>
        {table.getHeaderGroups().map((headerGroup) => (
          <TableRow key={headerGroup.id}>
            {headerGroup.headers.map((header) => (
              <TableHead key={header.id}>
                {flexRender(header.column.columnDef.header, header.getContext())}
              </TableHead>
            ))}
          </TableRow>
        ))}
      </TableHeader>
      <TableBody>
        {table.getRowModel().rows.map((row) => (
          < =>
            {row.getVisibleCells().map((cell) => (
              
                {flexRender(cell.column.columnDef.cell, cell.getContext())}
              
            ))}
          
        ))}
      
    
  );
}

Vite Configuration

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import react from "@vitejs/plugin-react";
import path from "path";

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react()],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      "@": path.resolve(__dirname, "./src"),
    },
  },
  server: {
    port: 3000,
  },
});

Best Practices

1. Component Organization

   • Use feature-based folder structure
   • Colocate related code (components, hooks, types)
   • Use barrel exports (index.ts)

2. State Management

   • Server state: TanStack Query
   • Client state: Zustand or Jotai
   • Form state: React Hook Form
   • URL state: TanStack Router

3. Performance

   • Use React.memo for expensive renders
   • Use useMemo/useCallback appropriately
   • Implement virtual scrolling for long lists
   • Lazy load routes and heavy components

4. Styling

   • Use Tailwind utilities
   • Use cn() for conditional classes
   • Follow shadcn/ui patterns
   • Support dark mode via CSS variables

5. TypeScript

   • Define interfaces for all props
   • Use strict mode
   • Avoid any, use unknown if needed
   • Use Zod for runtime validation

6. Accessibility

   • Use semantic HTML
   • Add ARIA labels
   • Ensure keyboard navigation
   • Test with screen readers
