### 📂 Key Directories Explained

- **`app/`**: Uses Expo Router for file-based routing with layout components
- **`components/`**: Follows Atomic Design methodology (atoms → molecules → organisms → templates)
- **`apis/`**: Centralized API layer with RTK Query for data fetching and caching
- **`redux/`**: State management using Redux Toolkit with separate slices
- **`hooks/`**: Custom React hooks for reusable logic
- **`constants/`**: App-wide constants including colors, fonts, and metrics
- **`locale/`**: Multi-language support with JSON translation files
- **`utils/`**: Helper functions and utilities
- **`scripts/`**: Development automation scripts

## 🎨 Component Architecture

This template follows the **Atomic Design** methodology:

### Atoms (`components/atoms/`)
Basic building blocks like buttons, inputs, and text components.

```tsx
import { Button } from '@/components/atoms';

<Button variant="primary" onPress={handlePress}>
  Click me
</Button>
```

### Molecules (`components/molecules/`)
Simple combinations of atoms that work together.

```tsx
import { SearchInput } from '@/components/molecules/common';

<SearchInput onSearch={handleSearch} placeholder="Search..." />
```

### Organisms (`components/organisms/`)
Complex components made up of molecules and atoms.

```tsx
import { UserProfile } from '@/components/organisms/common';

<UserProfile user={currentUser} onEdit={handleEdit} />
```

### Templates (`components/templates/`)
Page-level components that define layout structure.

## 🌐 API Integration

The template includes a pre-configured API layer using RTK Query:

### Setting up your API
1. Configure your API domain in `apis/Domain.ts`
2. Define each feature's endpoints in `apis/services/<feature>/index.ts`
3. Co-locate that feature's request/response types in `apis/services/<feature>/types.ts`
   (cross-cutting types like `PaginatedResponse` stay in `apis/@types/`)

> Tip: scaffold the whole layer with `npx plop create <Name> integration`.

### Example API Service
```tsx
// apis/services/user/types.ts
export interface User {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}
```

```tsx
// apis/services/user/index.ts
import api from '@/apis';
import { User } from './types';

export const userApi = api.injectEndpoints({
  endpoints: (builder) => ({
    getUser: builder.query<User, number>({
      query: (id) => `users/${id}`,
    }),
    updateUser: builder.mutation<User, { id: number } & Partial<User>>({
      query: ({ id, ...patch }) => ({
        url: `users/${id}`,
        method: 'PATCH',
        body: patch,
      }),
    }),
  }),
});

export const { useGetUserQuery, useUpdateUserMutation } = userApi;
```

## 🌍 Internationalization

### Adding Translations
1. Add your translations to `locale/en.json` and `locale/ar.json`
2. Use the `useTranslation` hook in your components

```tsx
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';

const MyComponent = () => {
  const { t } = useTranslation();
  
  return <Text>{t('welcome.title')}</Text>;
};
```

### Auto-translation
Use the built-in script to automatically translate your content:
```bash
npm run translate
```

## 🔧 Development Scripts

### SVG Component Generation
Automatically generate React components from SVG files:
```bash
npm run generate-svg
```

Place your SVG files in `assets/svgs/` and run the script to generate typed React components.

### Translation Management
Sync translations across different language files:
```bash
npm run sync-translations
```

### Production Optimization
Remove console logs for production builds:
```bash
npm run remove-logs
```

## 📱 Building for Production

### Using EAS Build
```bash
# Install EAS CLI
npm install -g @expo/eas-cli

# Configure EAS
eas build:configure

# Build for iOS
eas build --platform ios

# Build for Android
eas build --platform android

# Build for both platforms
eas build --platform all
```

### Local Builds
```bash
# Create production build
expo export

# Preview production build
npx serve dist
```

# Preview production build
npx serve dist
```

## 🤝 Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Please follow these steps:

1. Fork the repository
2. Create a new branch for your feature or bug fix:
   ```bash
   git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name
   ```
3. Make your changes and commit them:
   ```bash
   git commit -m "Add your feature description"
   ```
4. Push the branch:
