# Senior Frontend

Frontend development patterns, performance optimization, and automation tools for React/Next.js applications.

## Project Scaffolding

Generate a new Next.js or React project with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and best practice configurations.

### 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 |

### Generated Structure (Next.js)

```
my-app/
├── app/
│   ├── layout.tsx        # Root layout with fonts
│   ├── page.tsx          # Home page
│   ├── globals.css       # Tailwind + CSS variables
│   └── api/health/route.ts
├── components/
│   ├── ui/               # Button, Input, Card
│   └── layout/           # Header, Footer, Sidebar
├── hooks/                # useDebounce, useLocalStorage
├── lib/                  # utils (cn), constants
├── types/                # TypeScript interfaces
├── tailwind.config.ts
├── next.config.js
└── package.json
```

## Component Generation

Generate React components with TypeScript, tests, and Storybook stories.

### 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 |

## Bundle Analysis

Analyze package.json and project structure for bundle optimization opportunities.

### Heavy Dependencies to Replace

| 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

### Compound 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;
```

### Custom Hooks

```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;
}
```

## Next.js Optimization

### 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

### 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>
```

## 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>
```

## Quick Reference

### Tailwind CSS Utilities

```tsx
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>;
}
```
