- # React-Specific Coding Standards
44
-
45
- ## Component Development
46
-
47
- - **Function Components:** Always use function components with hooks
48
- - **TypeScript:** Strong typing for all props, state, and event handlers
49
- - **Component Naming:** PascalCase for components (e.g., `UserProfile`, `NavigationMenu`)
50
- - **File Organization:** One component per file, matching component name
51
- - **Props Interface:** Define explicit interfaces for all component props
52
-
53
- ## React Patterns and Best Practices
54
-
55
- ### Component Structure
56
- ```typescript
57
- // Preferred component structure
58
- interface ComponentProps {
59
- // Props interface first
60
- }
61
-
62
- const Component: React.FC<ComponentProps> = ({ prop1, prop2 }) => {
63
- // Hooks at the top
64
- const [state, setState] = useState();
65
- const { data } = useQuery();
66
-
67
- // Event handlers
68
- const handleClick = useCallback(() => {
69
- // Handler logic
70
- }, [dependencies]);
71
-
72
- // Render
73
- return (
74
- <div>
75
- {/* JSX content */}
76
- </div>
77
- );
78
- };
79
-
80
- export default Component;
81
- ```
82
-
83
- ### Hook Usage Guidelines
84
- - **useState:** Use for local component state
85
- - **useEffect:** Handle side effects, cleanup properly
86
- - **useCallback:** Memoize event handlers passed to child components
87
- - **useMemo:** Memoize expensive calculations
88
- - **useContext:** Access global state without prop drilling
89
- - **Custom Hooks:** Extract reusable stateful logic
90
-
91
- ### State Management
92
- - **Local State:** useState for component-specific state
93
- - **Global State:** Context API for app-wide state, or external library (Redux, Zustand)
94
- - **Server State:** React Query/SWR for data fetching and caching
95
- - **Form State:** Controlled components or form libraries (React Hook Form)
96
-
97

- ## Naming Conventions
117
-
118
- - **Components:** PascalCase (e.g., `UserCard.tsx`, `SearchInput.tsx`)
119
- - **Hooks:** camelCase with "use" prefix (e.g., `useUserData.ts`, `useLocalStorage.ts`)
120
- - **Pages:** PascalCase (e.g., `HomePage.tsx`, `UserProfilePage.tsx`)
121
- - **Utilities:** camelCase (e.g., `formatDate.ts`, `validateEmail.ts`)

124
-
125
- # React Development Guidelines
126
-
127
- ## Development Workflow and File Management
128
-
129
- ### Temporary File Management
130
- - **React Development Cleanup:** Remove all temporary JSX/TSX files, component experiments, and debug components after development sessions
131
- - **Build Artifact Cleanup:** Clean up development build outputs, bundle analyzer reports, and performance profiling files
132
- - **Component Playground:** Move useful component experiments to Storybook stories or proper example components
133
- - **Mock Data Management:** Organize temporary API mock data into `/src/mocks/` or `/test/fixtures/` directories
134
- - **Debug Component Removal:** Remove debug wrappers, console.log statements, and temporary styling before commits
135
-
136
- ## Component Design Principles
137
-
138
- ### Single Responsibility
139
- - Each component should have one clear purpose
140
- - Break down complex components into smaller, focused ones
141
- - Use composition over inheritance
142
-
143
- ### Props Design
144
- ```typescript
145
- // Good: Specific, typed props
146
- interface ButtonProps {
147
- variant: 'primary' | 'secondary' | 'danger';
148
- size: 'small' | 'medium' | 'large';
149
- onClick: () => void;
150
- disabled?: boolean;
151
- children: React.ReactNode;
152
- }
153
-
154
- // Avoid: Generic, untyped props
155
- interface BadProps {
156
- [key: string]: any;
157
- }
158
- ```
159
-
160
- ### Performance Optimization
161
- - **React.memo:** Memoize components that receive stable props
162
- - **useCallback/useMemo:** Prevent unnecessary re-renders
163
- - **Code Splitting:** Use React.lazy for route-level splitting
164
- - **Bundle Analysis:** Monitor and optimize bundle size
165
- - **Image Optimization:** Use appropriate formats and lazy loading
166
-
167
- ## Testing Strategy
168
-
169
- ### Testing Levels
170
- - **Unit Tests:** Individual components and hooks (Jest + React Testing Library)
171
- - **Integration Tests:** Component interactions and data flow
172
- - **E2E Tests:** Critical user flows (Cypress/Playwright)
173
-
174
- ### Testing Best Practices
175
- ```typescript
176
- // Example component test
177
- import { render, screen, fireEvent } from '@testing-library/react';
178
- import { Button } from './Button';
179
-
180
- describe('Button', () => {
181
- test('calls onClick handler when clicked', () => {
182
- const handleClick = jest.fn();
183
- render(<Button onClick={handleClick}>Click me</Button>);
184
-
185
- fireEvent.click(screen.getByRole('button'));
186
- expect(handleClick).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
187
- });
188
- });
189
- ```
190
-
191
- ### Test Organization
192
- - **Component Tests:** Co-located with components (`Button.test.tsx`)
193
- - **Hook Tests:** Test custom hooks in isolation
194
- - **Integration Tests:** Test component combinations
195
- - **Test Utilities:** Shared test helpers and mock data
196
-
197
- ## Accessibility (a11y) Standards
198
-
199
- ### ARIA and Semantic HTML
200
- - Use semantic HTML elements (button, nav, main, etc.)
201
- - Provide ARIA labels for interactive elements
202
- - Ensure proper heading hierarchy (h1, h2, h3, etc.)
203
- - Include alt text for images
204
-
205
- ### Keyboard Navigation
206
- - Ensure all interactive elements are keyboard accessible
207
- - Implement proper focus management
208
- - Use focus indicators for keyboard users
209
-
210
- ### Screen Reader Support
211
- - Use descriptive text for links and buttons
212
- - Provide context for form inputs
213
- - Test with screen readers
214
-
215
- ## Error Handling and Logging
216
-
217
- ### Error Boundaries
218
- ```typescript
219
- // Error boundary for component error handling
220
- class ErrorBoundary extends React.Component {
221
- constructor(props) {
222
- super(props);
223
- this.state = { hasError: false };
224
- }
225
-
226
- static getDerivedStateFromError(error) {
227
- return { hasError: true };
228
- }
229
-
230
- componentDidCatch(error, errorInfo) {
231
- console.error('Component error:', error, errorInfo);
232
- }
233
-
234
- render() {
235
- if (this.state.hasError) {
236
- return <ErrorFallback />;
237
- }
238
-
239
- return this.props.children;
240
- }
241
- }
242
- ```
243
-
244
- ### API Error Handling
245
- - Implement proper error states in UI
246
- - Show user-friendly error messages
247
- - Provide retry mechanisms for failed requests
248
- - Log errors for debugging
249
-
250
- ## Documentation Standards
251
-
252
- - **Documentation Architecture:** Maintain strict separation between system documentation (evergreen, no status indicators) and project management documentation (status tracking, temporal language)
253
- - **Component Documentation:** Use JSDoc comments for component props and complex logic
254
- - **API Documentation:** Document component APIs with examples and usage patterns
255
- - **README Updates:** Keep main README.md current with setup and deployment instructions using factual, present-tense language
256
- - **Changelog:** Maintain detailed CHANGELOG.md with all notable changes
257
- - **Architecture Decisions:** Record significant architectural decisions in component design
258
- - **Status Indicators:** Use status emojis only in project management docs, never in system documentation

270
- ```json
271
- {
272
- "extends": [
273
- "react-app",
274
- "react-app/jest",
275
- "@typescript-eslint/recommended"
276
- ],
277
- "rules": {
278
- "react-hooks/exhaustive-deps": "warn",
279
- "react/prop-types": "off",
280
- "@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars": "error"
281
- }
282
- }
283
- ```
284
-
285
- ## State Management Patterns
286
-
287
- ### Context API Usage
288
- ```typescript
289
- // User context example
290
- const UserContext = createContext<UserContextType | undefined>(undefined);
291
-
292
- export const UserProvider: React.FC<{ children: React.ReactNode }> = ({ children }) => {
293
- const [user, setUser] = useState<User | null>(null);
294
-
295
- const value = useMemo(() => ({
296
- user,
297
- setUser,
298
- logout: () => setUser(null)
299
- }), [user]);
300
-
301
- return (
302
- <UserContext.Provider value={value}>
303
- {children}
304
- </UserContext.Provider>
305
- );
306
- };
307
-
308
- export const useUser = () => {
309
- const context = useContext(UserContext);
310
- if (!context) {
311
- throw new Error('useUser must be used within UserProvider');
312
- }
313
- return context;
314
- };
315
- ```
316
-
317
- ### Data Fetching Patterns
318
- - Use React Query/SWR for server state management
319
- - Implement loading and error states
320
- - Handle caching and background updates
321
- - Optimize for user experience
322
-
323
- ## Performance Best Practices
324
-
325
- ### Bundle Optimization
326
- - Tree shaking for unused code elimination
327
- - Code splitting at route and component level
328
- - Lazy loading for non-critical components
329
- - Optimize third-party library usage
330
-
331
- ### Runtime Performance
332
- - Avoid inline object/function creation in render
333
- - Use production builds for performance testing
334
- - Monitor Core Web Vitals
335
- - Implement proper memoization strategies
336
-
337
- ## Common Anti-Patterns to Avoid
338
-
339
- ### React-Specific Anti-Patterns
340
- - **Mutating State Directly:** Always use setState/useState setter
341
- - **Missing Dependencies:** Include all dependencies in useEffect
342
- - **Overusing useEffect:** Prefer derived state when possible
343
- - **Prop Drilling:** Use context or state management for deep nesting
344
- - **Large Components:** Break down into smaller, focused components
345
- - **Inline Styles:** Use CSS modules or styled-components for styling
346
-
347
- ### Component Design Anti-Patterns
348
- - **God Components:** Components with too many responsibilities
349
- - **Tight Coupling:** Components that depend on specific parent structure
350
- - **Missing Error Handling:** Components that don't handle error states
351
- - **Poor Accessibility:** Missing ARIA labels and semantic HTML
352
-
353
- ## Deployment and Production Considerations
354
-
355
- ### Build Optimization
356
- - Enable production mode optimizations
357
- - Configure proper caching headers
358
- - Implement service workers for offline functionality
359
- - Use CDN for static assets
360
-
361
- ### Monitoring and Analytics
362
- - Implement error tracking (Sentry, Bugsnag)
363
- - Monitor performance metrics
364
- - Track user interactions and conversions
365
- - Set up alerts for critical issues
366
-
367
- ## React Development Workflow
368
-
369
- ## Mandatory Development Process
370
-
371
- **ALL React development tasks must follow this strict workflow to ensure component quality, proper testing, and comprehensive documentation.**
372
-
373
- ### Step 1: Task Understanding and Planning
374
-
375
- - **Always start with clarification:** Ask questions to fully understand the React component/feature requirements
376
- - **Provide implementation outline:** Present the shortest possible outline of the React implementation plan with component structure
377
- - **Get explicit confirmation:** Wait for user confirmation before proceeding with React development
378
- - **Clarify scope:** Ensure both parties understand what React components will be implemented and what won't
379
-
380
- ### Step 2: Task Management
381
-
382
- - **Update task list:** Add corresponding task(s) to `/_meta/project-task-list.md`
383
- - **Set task status:** Mark React development tasks as "In Progress" with clear descriptions
384
- - **Break down complex components:** Split large React components into smaller, manageable subtasks
385
- - **Estimate effort:** Provide realistic time/complexity estimates for React development
386
-
387
- ### Step 3: Test-Driven Development (TDD) for React
388
-
389
- - **Document test cases first:** Write React test cases in `/test/test-documentation.md` with component scenarios
390
- - **Define component behavior:** Clearly specify component props, state changes, and user interactions
391
- - **Implement component tests:** Create React Testing Library tests that verify documented behavior
392
- - **Verify test failure:** Run tests to confirm they fail appropriately (red phase)
393
- - **Implement components:** Write the minimum React component code needed to make tests pass (green phase)
394
- - **Clean up test artifacts:** Remove temporary test components, move useful test data to `/test/fixtures/`
395
-
396
- ### Step 4: Implementation and Verification
397
-
398
- - **Write React components:** Implement actual component functionality with proper TypeScript typing
399
- - **Run all tests:** Ensure all React tests pass, including unit and integration tests
400
- - **Verify component functionality:** Test components in browser and confirm they meet requirements
401
- - **Get user confirmation:** User must test the React components and confirm they meet expectations
402
- - **Refactor components:** Clean up React code while maintaining test coverage and component structure
403
- - **File cleanup:** Remove temporary React files, debug components, experimental JSX, and console.log statements
404
-
405
- ### Step 5: Documentation and Status Updates
406
-
407
- - **Update all documentation:** Follow documentation maintenance guidelines for React projects
408
- - **Update task status:** Mark completed React tasks in `/_meta/project-task-list.md`
409
- - **Update test documentation:** Record React test status in `/test/test-documentation.md`
410
- - **Update CHANGELOG.md:** Document user-facing React component changes
411
- - **Review component documentation:** Ensure JSDoc comments and component docs are current
412
-
413
- ### Step 6: Version Control
414
-
415
- - **Commit changes:** Use conventional commit messages for React changes (feat: add Button component)
416
- - **Include all related files:** Ensure React tests, documentation, and components are committed together
417
- - **Write descriptive commit messages:** Explain what React components were implemented and why
418
- - **Keep commits atomic:** Each commit should represent a complete, working React feature
419
-
420
- ### Step 7: Workflow Completion Check
421
-
422
- - **Mandatory workflow completion:** User must complete the entire React workflow before moving to next task
423
- - **Incremental development:** Remind users to finish current React workflow before starting new components
424
- - **Repository hygiene:** Ensure React codebase, documentation, and repository remain up-to-date
425
- - **Quality gates:** All React tests must pass, documentation must be current, and code must be committed
426
-
427
- ## React Workflow Enforcement Rules
428
-
429
- ### Before Starting Any New React Task
430
-
431
- ```
432
- STOP: Complete the current React workflow first!
433
-
434
- Before proceeding with a new React component/feature, ensure:
435
- ✅ Current React task is documented and committed
436
- ✅ All React tests are passing
437
- ✅ Component documentation is updated
438
- ✅ User has confirmed the React implementation meets expectations
439
- ✅ React changes are committed with proper messages
440
-
441
- Only then proceed with the next React task planning phase.
442
- ```
443
-
444
- ### React Quality Gates
445
-
446
- - **No shortcuts:** Every React development step must be completed in order
447
- - **No parallel components:** Focus on one React component at a time until fully complete
448
- - **No skipping React tests:** TDD approach is mandatory for all React components
449
- - **No incomplete documentation:** All React component documentation must be current
450
- - **No uncommitted changes:** All React work must be committed before moving on
451
-
452
- ### React Workflow Violations
453
-
454
- If a user requests to skip steps or start new React work before completing the workflow:
455
-
456
- 1. **Politely decline:** Explain the importance of completing the current React workflow
457
- 2. **Remind of benefits:** Emphasize how this maintains React code quality and component health
458
- 3. **Offer to complete current workflow:** Help finish the current React task properly first
459
- 4. **Suggest component breakdown:** If the current React component is too large, suggest breaking it down
460
-
461
- ## Benefits of This React Workflow
462
-
463
- - **Higher React code quality:** TDD ensures robust, well-tested React components
464
- - **Better component documentation:** Always current and comprehensive React documentation
465
- - **Reduced technical debt:** Incremental React approach prevents accumulation of shortcuts
466
- - **Improved maintainability:** Clear React task tracking and component documentation
467
- - **Team collaboration:** Consistent React approach enables better teamwork
468
- - **Risk mitigation:** Small, tested React changes reduce deployment risks
469
-
470

471
-
472
- **Remember:** Focus on creating maintainable, accessible, and performant React applications that provide excellent user experience while following modern development practices.
