-A simple, clean React-like framework with state management, routing, and API routes.
+A **lightweight Next.js clone** with React hooks, API routes, and file-based routing. All the benefits of Next.js, but **6x smaller** with **zero dependencies**!

-### Auto-Registration ⚡
-```javascript
-// Just name your function with "Page" suffix
-function AboutPage() {
-    return <div><h1>About</h1></div>;
-}
-// Automatically becomes route "#/about"
-```
-
-### State Management
+### React Hooks (Identical to Next.js!)
 ```javascript
 const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
 const [name, setName] = useState('');
-```
 
-### Routing
-```javascript
-// Auto-registers based on function name
-function HomePage() { }  // → #/home
+useEffect(() => {
+    console.log('Mounted!');
+}, []);
 
-// Or manually register for custom names
-registerPage("user-profile", UserProfilePage);

+const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initial);

+
+## React Hooks - Identical API
+
+### useState
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useState } from 'react';
+const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
+```
+
+### useEffect
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useEffect } from 'react';
+useEffect(() => {
+    console.log('Mounted!');
+    return () => console.log('Cleanup!');
+}, [dependency]);
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+useEffect(() => {
+    console.log('Mounted!');
+    return () => console.log('Cleanup!');
+}, [dependency]);
+```
+
+### useMemo
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useMemo } from 'react';
+const value = useMemo(() => expensiveCalc(), [dep]);
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+const value = useMemo(() => expensiveCalc(), [dep]);
+```
+
+### useCallback
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useCallback } from 'react';
+const callback = useCallback(() => doSomething(), [dep]);
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+const callback = useCallback(() => doSomething(), [dep]);
+```
+
+### useRef
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useRef } from 'react';
+const ref = useRef(null);
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+const ref = useRef(null);
+```
+
+### useReducer
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useReducer } from 'react';
+const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState);
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState);
+```
+
+## API Routes - Identical API
+
+### Basic Route
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js (pages/api/hello.js)
+export default async function handler(req, res) {
+    res.status(200).json({ message: 'Hello' });
+}
+
+// Aziz App (api/hello.js) - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+export default async function handler(req, res) {
+    res.status(200).json({ message: 'Hello' });
+}
+```
+
+### Request Object
+
+```javascript
+// Both Next.js and Aziz App
+{
+    method: 'GET' | 'POST' | 'PUT' | 'DELETE',
+    body: {},      // Parsed JSON
+    query: {},     // URL parameters
+    headers: {},   // Request headers
+    url: string    // Full URL
+}
+```
+
+### Response Methods
+
+```javascript
+// Both Next.js and Aziz App
+res.status(200)                    // Set status
+res.json({ data: 'value' })        // Send JSON
+res.send('text')                   // Send text
+res.setHeader('X-Custom', 'value') // Set header
+```
+
+### CRUD Example
+
+```javascript
+// Works identically in both!
+export default async function handler(req, res) {
+    switch (req.method) {
+        case 'GET':
+            return res.status(200).json({ users: [] });
+        case 'POST':
+            return res.status(201).json({ created: true });
+        case 'PUT':
+            return res.status(200).json({ updated: true });
+        case 'DELETE':
+            return res.status(200).json({ deleted: true });
+        default:
+            return res.status(405).json({ error: 'Method not allowed' });
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## File-based Routing
+
+### Pages
+
+```
+// Next.js
+pages/
+├── index.js      → /
+├── about.js      → /about
+└── contact.js    → /contact
+
+// Aziz App - Same concept!
+pages/
+├── Home.jsx      → #/home
+├── About.jsx     → #/about
+└── Contact.jsx   → #/contact
+```
+
+### Auto-Registration
+
+```javascript
+// Next.js - Automatic
+// Just create the file
+
+// Aziz App - Automatic too!
+// Just name your function: AboutPage()
+function AboutPage() {
+    return <div><h1>About</h1></div>;
+}
+```
+

+```javascript
+// Next.js
+import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
+
+function Page() {
+    const [data, setData] = useState(null);
+    
+    useEffect(() => {
+        fetch('/api/users')
+            .then(res => res.json())
+            .then(setData);
+    }, []);
+    
+    return <div>{data?.message}</div>;
+}
+
+// Aziz App - EXACTLY THE SAME!
+function Page() {
+    const [data, setData] = useState(null);
+    
+    useEffect(() => {
+        fetch('/api/users')
+            .then(res => res.json())
+            .then(setData);
+    }, []);
+    
+    return <div>{data?.message}</div>;
+}
+```
+
+### Custom Hook
+
+```javascript
+// Both Next.js and Aziz App
+function useFetch(url) {
+    const [data, setData] = useState(null);
+    const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
+    
+    useEffect(() => {
+        fetch(url)
+            .then(res => res.json())
+            .then(data => {
+                setData(data);
+                setLoading(false);
+            });
+    }, [url]);
+    
+    return { data, loading };
+}
+```
+
+## JSX Syntax
+
+### Components
+
+```jsx
+// Next.js
+export default function Button({ onClick, children }) {
+    return <button onClick={onClick}>{children}</button>;
+}
+
+// Aziz App - Same JSX!
+function Button({ onClick, children }) {
+    return <button onClick={onClick}>{children}</button>;
+}
+```
+
+### Props
+
+```jsx
+// Both support the same props
+<div 
+    class="container"
+    style={{ color: 'red' }}
+    onClick={() => alert('Hi')}
+>
+    Content
+</div>
+```
+
+## Development Experience
+
+### Hot Reload
+
+```
+// Next.js
+1. Save file
+2. Fast Refresh
+3. State preserved
+
+// Aziz App
+1. Save file
+2. WebSocket reload
+3. Full page reload (state reset)
+```
+
+### Error Messages
+
+```
+// Next.js
+- Detailed error overlay
+- Stack traces
+- Suggestions
+
+// Aziz App
+- Browser console errors
+- Simpler debugging
+- Less magic
+```

+    
+    return (
+        <div>
+            <p>Count: {count}</p>
+            <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>
+                Increment
+            </button>
+        </div>
+    );
+}
+```
+
+### Form with Validation
+
+```jsx
+// Works identically in both!
+function ContactForm() {
+    const [name, setName] = useState('');
+    const [email, setEmail] = useState('');
+    const [error, setError] = useState('');
+    
+    const handleSubmit = async (e) => {
+        e.preventDefault();
+        
+        if (!name || !email) {
+            setError('All fields required');
+            return;
+        }
+        
+        const res = await fetch('/api/contact', {
+            method: 'POST',
+            headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+            body: JSON.stringify({ name, email })
+        });
+        
+        if (res.ok) {
+            alert('Sent!');
+        }
+    };
+    
+    return (
+        <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
+            <input 
+                value={name}
+                onChange={(e) => setName(e.target.value)}
+                placeholder="Name"
+            />
+            <input 
+                value={email}
+                onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)}
+                placeholder="Email"
+            />
+            {error && <p>{error}</p>}
+            <button type="submit">Submit</button>
+        </form>
+    );
+}
