drizzle-nextjs-postgres

Drizzle ORM against PostgreSQL inside a Next.js App Router app. Covers client construction (globalThis singleton across HMR, serverless pool sizing, `prepare:false` behind PgBouncer/Supavisor, driver choice when you need interactive transactions, `server-only`), reads in Server Components under Next.js 16 Cache Components (`use cache` superseding `unstable_cache` and the `revalidate`/`dynamic` segment configs, Suspense boundaries, React `cache()` dedupe), Server Actions (authorization inside the action, `updateTag` vs `revalidateTag`, `after()`), Postgres schema types (timestamptz, identity vs serial, jsonb, numeric-as-string, bigint modes), drizzle-kit migrations (generate vs push, CONCURRENTLY outside the migrator, NOT VALID constraints, rename prompts), transactions and pooled connections, and Postgres query traps (keyset pagination, count cost, driver-dependent `db.execute()` shape, NOT IN nulls, prepared statements). Use when writing or reviewing Drizzle + Postgres code in Next.js.

relational-data-modeling

Corrects the wrong defaults a model has when designing a relational schema — the DDL decisions an experienced engineer makes differently. Use when creating or reviewing tables, migrations, ER models, or ORM schema definitions. Covers identity and keys (surrogate vs natural, identity vs serial, uuidv7, composite keys that make cross-tenant references impossible), relationships (polymorphic foreign keys the database cannot enforce, referential actions, unindexed FK columns, disjoint subtypes), invariants the engine can prove instead of application code (EXCLUDE, partial unique indexes, CHECK limits, deferrable cycles, NOT VALID), types (timestamptz, exact money, range types, enum vs lookup table), derived and encoded data (generated columns, JSONB as an escape hatch), and time (events vs in-place updates, soft-delete flags that silently disable constraints, temporal keys). NOT for query tuning, index selection for read paths, or connection pooling.

relational-database-design

Distills a logical relational-database design methodology into rules an agent applies while designing or reviewing a schema. Covers the design sequence (mission → tables → fields → keys → relationships → business rules → views → integrity review), one-subject-per-table decomposition, atomic single-valued fields, candidate/primary/foreign keys, relationship types with deletion rules and participation, the four levels of data integrity, database-vs-application business rules, validation tables, views for derived data, and the flat-file / spreadsheet / RDBMS-driven antipatterns to avoid. The structure is logical and RDBMS-agnostic, and normalized by construction. Use when designing a new relational schema, reviewing or refactoring an existing one, resolving redundant or repeating data, choosing keys, modeling relationships, or deciding where a constraint belongs.

Community React Native Elements Best Practices

Comprehensive best practices guide for React Native Elements applications. Contains 45 rules across 8 categories, prioritized by impact to guide component usage, theming, and performance optimization.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

Setting up React Native Elements in a new project
Configuring ThemeProvider and createTheme
Building lists with ListItem components
Implementing form inputs with Input and SearchBar
Optimizing FlatList performance with RNE components
Reviewing code using React Native Elements

Rule Categories by Priority

Priority	Category	Impact	Prefix
1	Import & Setup	CRITICAL	`setup-`
2	Theme Architecture	CRITICAL	`theme-`
3	Component Selection	HIGH	`comp-`
4	List Performance	HIGH	`list-`
5	Props & Configuration	MEDIUM-HIGH	`props-`
6	Styling Patterns	MEDIUM	`style-`
7	Callbacks & Events	MEDIUM	`event-`
8	Advanced Patterns	LOW	`adv-`

Quick Reference

1. Import & Setup (CRITICAL)

setup-themeprovider - Wrap app with ThemeProvider for consistent theming
setup-imports - Use @rneui/themed vs @rneui/base correctly
setup-createtheme - Type-safe theme configuration with createTheme
setup-tree-shaking - Enable proper tree-shaking for bundle size
setup-safe-area - Configure SafeAreaProvider for notched devices

2. Theme Architecture (CRITICAL)

theme-usetheme-hook - Access theme reactively with useTheme
theme-dark-mode - Configure light/dark mode with createTheme
theme-component-defaults - Set component defaults in theme
theme-updatetheme - Runtime theme updates without remount
theme-color-scheme - Sync with system color scheme
theme-custom-colors - Extend theme with custom colors safely

3. Component Selection (HIGH)

comp-listitem-over-view - Use ListItem for list rows
comp-input-over-textinput - Use Input for form fields
comp-searchbar-platform - Platform-specific SearchBar variants
comp-button-type - Use Button type prop for variants
comp-icon-source - Choose Icon type wisely for bundle size
comp-avatar-vs-image - Use Avatar for profile images

4. List Performance (HIGH)

list-memo-items - Memoize ListItem in FlatList
list-keyextractor - Always provide keyExtractor
list-getitemlayout - Use getItemLayout for fixed heights
list-renderitem-callback - Extract renderItem with useCallback
list-windowsize - Configure windowSize for memory balance
list-virtualized - Use FlatList over ScrollView
list-removeClipped - Configure removeClippedSubviews carefully

5. Props & Configuration (MEDIUM-HIGH)

props-loading-state - Use loading prop for async operations
props-disabled-styling - Configure disabledStyle for feedback
props-input-validation - Use errorMessage for validation
props-icon-configuration - Configure Icon props correctly
props-searchbar-loading - Show loading state in SearchBar
props-button-color - Use color prop for semantic colors

6. Styling Patterns (MEDIUM)

style-stylesheet - Use StyleSheet.create over inline objects
style-containerStyle - Use containerStyle for wrappers
style-usememo-dynamic - Memoize dynamic styles
style-theme-colors - Use theme colors over hardcoded values
style-component-props - Prefer component-specific style props

7. Callbacks & Events (MEDIUM)

event-usecallback - Wrap handlers in useCallback
event-debounce-search - Debounce SearchBar onChangeText
event-listitem-onpress - Pass item data correctly
event-avoid-anonymous - Avoid anonymous functions in renders
event-input-handlers - Configure Input handlers efficiently

8. Advanced Patterns (LOW)

adv-custom-component - Wrap RNE components correctly
adv-platform-specific - Handle platform-specific props
adv-makeStyles - Use makeStyles for theme-aware styles
adv-overlay-modal - Choose Overlay vs Modal correctly
adv-image-component - Configure Avatar ImageComponent for caching
