-## 🔒 Security Best Practices
-
-### Authentication & Authorization
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Always validate permissions server-side
-- Use the built-in RBAC system for access control
-- Implement proper session management
-- Enable MFA where possible
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Server-side validation
-const { data, error } = await supabase
-  .from('users')
-  .select('*')
-  .eq('organisation_id', user.organisation_id); // RLS handles security
-
-// ❌ Bad - Client-side only validation
-if (user.role === 'admin') {
-  // This can be bypassed!
-}
-```
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use permission guards for UI elements
-- Implement proper error boundaries
-- Sanitize all user inputs
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Permission-based rendering
-<PermissionGuard
-  operation="read"
-  resource="sensitive_data"
-  fallback={<div>Access denied</div>}
->
-  <SensitiveDataComponent />
-</PermissionGuard>
-```
-
-### Data Protection
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use Row Level Security (RLS) policies
-- Encrypt sensitive data at rest
-- Implement proper audit logging
-- Validate all inputs with Zod schemas
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Input validation
-const userSchema = z.object({
-  email: z.string().email(),
-  password: z.string().min(8).regex(/^(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*\d)/),
-});
-
-const result = userSchema.safeParse(formData);
-if (!result.success) {
-  // Handle validation errors
-}
-```
-
-For detailed security guidelines, see [Security Best Practices](./security.md).
-
-## ⚡ Performance Optimization
-
-### Bundle Optimization
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use tree shaking for smaller bundles
-- Implement code splitting
-- Lazy load heavy components
-- Optimize images and assets
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Lazy loading
-const HeavyComponent = React.lazy(() => import('./HeavyComponent'));
-
-function App() {
-  return (
-    <Suspense fallback={<LoadingSpinner />}>
-      <HeavyComponent />
-    </Suspense>
-  );
-}
-```
-
-### Runtime Performance
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use React.memo for expensive components
-- Optimize callbacks with useCallback
-- Implement proper memoization
-- Use virtualization for large lists
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Memoized component
-const ExpensiveTable = React.memo(({ data, columns }) => {
-  return <DataTable data={data} columns={columns} />;
-});
-
-// ✅ Good - Memoized callback
-const handleDataChange = useCallback((newData) => {
-  setData(newData);
-}, []);
-```
-
-### Data Management
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Implement proper caching strategies
-- Use pagination for large datasets
-- Optimize database queries
-- Implement proper loading states
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Paginated data
-<DataTable
-  data={paginatedData}
-  columns={columns}
-  pagination={{
-    currentPage,
-    pageSize,
-    totalItems: data.length,
-    onPageChange: setCurrentPage,
-  }}
-/>
-```
-
-For detailed performance guidelines, see [Performance Best Practices](./performance.md).
-
-## 🧪 Testing Strategies
-
-### Unit Testing
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Test component behavior, not implementation
-- Use proper mocking for external dependencies
-- Test error states and edge cases
-- Maintain good test coverage
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Component testing
-test('renders user data correctly', () => {
-  const mockUser = { id: '1', name: 'John Doe', email: 'john@example.com' };
-  
-  render(<UserProfile user={mockUser} />);
-  
-  expect(screen.getByText('John Doe')).toBeInTheDocument();
-  expect(screen.getByText('john@example.com')).toBeInTheDocument();
-});
-```
-
-### Integration Testing
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Test component interactions
-- Test authentication flows
-- Test permission enforcement
-- Test form submissions
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Integration testing
-test('user can submit form with valid data', async () => {
-  const mockSubmit = jest.fn();
-  
-  render(<UserForm onSubmit={mockSubmit} />);
-  
-  await user.type(screen.getByLabelText('Name'), 'John Doe');
-  await user.type(screen.getByLabelText('Email'), 'john@example.com');
-  await user.click(screen.getByRole('button', { name: 'Submit' }));
-  
-  expect(mockSubmit).toHaveBeenCalledWith({
-    name: 'John Doe',
-    email: 'john@example.com'
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### E2E Testing
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Test critical user journeys
-- Test across different browsers
-- Test responsive behavior
-- Test accessibility features
-
-For detailed testing guidelines, see [Testing Best Practices](./testing.md).
-
-## 🚀 Deployment Guidelines
-
-### Environment Configuration
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use environment variables for configuration
-- Implement proper secrets management
-- Use different configs for different environments
-- Validate environment variables at startup
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Environment validation
-const config = {
-  supabaseUrl: process.env.VITE_SUPABASE_URL,
-  supabaseKey: process.env.VITE_SUPABASE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY,
-  appName: process.env.VITE_APP_NAME,
-};
-
-if (!config.supabaseUrl || !config.supabaseKey) {
-  throw new Error('Missing required environment variables');
-}
-```
-
-### Build Optimization

-
-## 📝 Code Quality
-
-### TypeScript
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use strict TypeScript configuration
-- Define proper interfaces and types
-- Use type guards for runtime safety
-- Avoid `any` types
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Proper typing
-interface User {
-  id: string;
-  name: string;
-  email: string;
-  role: 'admin' | 'user' | 'guest';
-}
-
-const UserCard: React.FC<{ user: User }> = ({ user }) => {
-  return <div>{user.name}</div>;
-};
-```
-
-### Code Organisation
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Use consistent file naming
-- Organize components logically
-- Separate concerns properly
-- Use proper imports and exports
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Clean imports
-import { Button, Card, DataTable } from '@jmruthers/pace-core';
-import { useUnifiedAuth, useCan } from '@jmruthers/pace-core';
-import { z } from 'zod';
-```
-
-### Error Handling
-
-**✅ Do:**
-- Implement proper error boundaries
-- Use consistent error handling patterns
-- Provide meaningful error messages
-- Log errors appropriately
-
-```tsx
-// ✅ Good - Error boundary
-<ErrorBoundary
-  fallback={<ErrorFallback />}
-  onError={(error, errorInfo) => {
-    console.error('Error caught by boundary:', error, errorInfo);
-  }}
->
-  <MyComponent />
-</ErrorBoundary>
-```
-
-## ♿ Accessibility
-
-### WCAG Compliance

-Remember: **Best practices are guidelines, not rules. Adapt them to your specific needs and constraints.**
-
-## ♿ Accessibility
-
-All best practices should consider accessibility:
-
-- **WCAG 2.1 AA compliance** - Ensure all practices maintain accessibility standards
-- **Screen Reader Support** - Verify practices don't break screen reader functionality
-- **Keyboard Navigation** - Ensure practices don't affect keyboard accessibility
-- **Error Announcements** - Ensure error messages are accessible
-- **Focus Management** - Verify focus handling remains correct
-
-### Accessibility Best Practices
-
-1. **Test with screen readers** - Verify practices work with assistive technologies
-2. **Check error announcements** - Ensure error messages are properly announced
-3. **Maintain keyboard access** - Verify all interactive elements remain keyboard accessible
-4. **Preserve semantic structure** - Don't break semantic HTML with optimizations
-5. **Test focus management** - Ensure focus handling remains correct
-
-## ⚠️ Edge Cases
-
-### Best Practices Conflicts
-
-When best practices conflict:
-- Prioritize security over performance when necessary
-- Balance accessibility with design requirements
-- Consider trade-offs between maintainability and optimization
-- Document decisions when deviating from best practices
-- Test thoroughly when combining multiple practices
-
-### Performance vs Accessibility
-
-When performance optimizations impact accessibility:
-- Ensure lazy loading doesn't break screen reader navigation
-- Verify code splitting maintains keyboard navigation
-- Check that memoization doesn't affect focus management
-- Test with assistive technologies after optimizations
-- Balance performance gains with accessibility requirements
-
-### Security vs Usability
-
-When security practices impact usability:
-- Find balance between security and user experience
-- Provide clear error messages without exposing vulnerabilities
-- Implement security measures transparently
-- Test with real users to ensure usability
-- Document security decisions for future reference
