Component Template

// components/cards/ServiceCard.tsx
import Link from 'next/link';
import { ArrowRight } from 'lucide-react';
import { Card, CardContent, CardHeader, CardTitle } from '@/components/ui/card';
import { Badge } from '@/components/ui/badge';
import type { Service } from '@/types';

interface ServiceCardProps {
  service: Service;
  locale: string;
}

export function ServiceCard({ service, locale }: ServiceCardProps) {
  return (
    <Card className="group hover:shadow-lg transition-shadow">
      <CardHeader>
        <div className="flex items-start justify-between">
          <CardTitle className="text-xl">{service.name}</CardTitle>
          <Badge variant="secondary">{service.duration}</Badge>
        </div>
      </CardHeader>
      <CardContent className="space-y-4">
        <p className="text-muted-foreground">{service.shortDesc}</p>
        
        <div className="flex flex-wrap gap-2">
          {service.tags.map((tag) => (
            <Badge key={tag} variant="outline" className="text-xs">
              {tag}
            </Badge>
          ))}
        </div>
        
        <div className="flex items-center justify-between pt-4 border-t">
          < =>From €{service.priceFrom}
          
            Learn more
            
          
        
      
    
  );
}

Section Component Pattern

// components/sections/ServicesPreview.tsx
import { getTranslations } from 'next-intl/server';
import { getServices } from '@/lib/data';
import { Container } from '@/components/shared/Container';
import { SectionHeader } from '@/components/shared/SectionHeader';
import { ServiceCard } from '@/components/cards/ServiceCard';
import { CTAButton } from '@/components/shared/CTAButton';
import type { Locale } from '@/i18n.config';

interface ServicesPreviewProps {
  locale: Locale;
}

export async function ServicesPreview({ locale }: ServicesPreviewProps) {
  const t = await getTranslations({ locale, namespace: 'home.services' });
  const services = await getServices(locale);
  const featured = services.slice(0, 4);

   (
    
  );
}

Shared Components

// components/shared/Container.tsx
import { cn } from '@/lib/utils';

interface ContainerProps {
  children: React.ReactNode;
  className?: string;
  size?: 'default' | 'narrow' | 'wide';
}

export function Container({
  children,
  className,
  size = 'default',
}: ContainerProps) {
  return (
    <div
      className={cn(
        'mx-auto px-4 md:px-6',
        {
          'max-w-7xl': size === 'default',
          'max-w-4xl': size === 'narrow',
          'max-w-screen-2xl': size === 'wide',
        },
        className
      )}
    >
      {children}
    </div>
  );
}

// components/shared/SectionHeader.tsx
import { cn } from '@/lib/utils';

interface SectionHeaderProps {
  title: string;
  subtitle?: string;
  centered?: boolean;
  className?: string;
}

export function SectionHeader({
  title,
  subtitle,
  centered = false,
  className,
}: SectionHeaderProps) {
  return (
    <div className={cn(centered && 'text-center', className)}>
      <h2 className="text-3xl md:text-4xl font-bold tracking-tight">
        {title}
      </h2>
      {subtitle && (
        <p className="mt-4 text-lg text-muted-foreground max-w-2xl mx-auto">
          {subtitle}
        </p>
      )}
    </div>
  );
}

// components/shared/CTAButton.tsx
import Link from 'next/link';
import { Button, type ButtonProps } from '@/components/ui/button';
import { ArrowRight } from 'lucide-react';

interface CTAButtonProps extends ButtonProps {
  href: string;
  children: React.ReactNode;
  showArrow?: boolean;
}

export function CTAButton({
  href,
  children,
  showArrow = false,
  ...props
}: CTAButtonProps) {
  return (
    <Button asChild {...props}>
      <Link href={href} className="gap-2">
        {children}
        {showArrow && <ArrowRight className="w-4 h-4" />}
      </Link>
    </Button>
  );
}

Composition Pattern

// Compound components for flexibility
// components/cards/PricingCard.tsx
import { Card, CardContent, CardHeader } from '@/components/ui/card';

interface PricingCardProps {
  children: React.ReactNode;
  featured?: boolean;
}

export function PricingCard({ children, featured }: PricingCardProps) {
  return (
    <Card className={featured ? 'border-primary shadow-lg' : ''}>
      {children}
    </Card>
  );
}

PricingCard.Header = function PricingCardHeader({
  title,
  price,
  period,
}: {
  title: string;
  price: number;
  period?: string;
}) {
  return (
    <CardHeader className="text-center">
      <h3 className="text-xl font-semibold">{title}</h3>
      <div className=>
        €{price}
        {period && /{period}}
      
    
  );
};

. =  () {
   (
    
  );
};

Props Interface Conventions

// Consistent prop naming
interface ComponentProps {
  // Content
  title: string;
  subtitle?: string;
  description?: string;
  
  // Data
  items: Item[];
  data?: DataType;
  
  // Variants
  variant?: 'default' | 'primary' | 'secondary';
  size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg';
  
  // State
  isLoading?: boolean;
  disabled?: boolean;
  
  // Styling
  className?: string;
  
  // Events
  onClick?: () => void;
  onSubmit?: (data: FormData) => void;
  
  // i18n
  locale: string;
  
  // Children
  children?: React.ReactNode;
}

Empty States

// components/shared/EmptyState.tsx
interface EmptyStateProps {
  title: string;
  description?: string;
  action?: React.ReactNode;
}

export function EmptyState({ title, description, action }: EmptyStateProps) {
  return (
    <div className="text-center py-12">
      <h3 className="text-lg font-medium">{title}</h3>
      {description && (
        <p className="mt-2 text-muted-foreground">{description}</p>
      )}
      {action && <div className="mt-6">{action}</div>}
    </div>
  );
}
