## 🚀 Getting Started

### Prerequisites

- Node.js 18+ 
- npm, yarn, or pnpm

### Installation

1. Create a new project using the CLI tool:

```bash
# Using npx (recommended)
npx create-react-shadcn-app my-app nextjs-app-router

# Or using degit
npx degit im-ian/create-react-shadcn-app/packages/nextjs-app-router my-app
```

2. Install dependencies:

```bash
cd my-app
npm install
# or
yarn install
# or
pnpm install
```

3. Start the development server:

```bash
npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
```

4. Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser.

## 📝 Available Scripts

- `npm run dev` - Start development server with Turbopack
- `npm run build` - Build the application for production
- `npm run start` - Start the production server
- `npm run lint` - Run ESLint for code quality checks

## 🎨 Adding Components

This boilerplate uses shadcn/ui for components. To add new components:

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add [component-name]
```

For example:
```bash
npx shadcn@latest add card
npx shadcn@latest add input
npx shadcn@latest add dialog
```

## 🏗️ Domain-Driven Structure

The project follows a domain-driven approach where related functionality is grouped together:

- **`domains/user/`** - User-related components, hooks, and logic
- **`domains/product/`** - Product-related functionality
- **`domains/order/`** - Order management features

Each domain contains:
- `components/` - Domain-specific React components
- `hooks/` - Custom hooks for the domain
- `index.ts` - Barrel exports for clean imports

## 🔧 Customization

### Tailwind CSS

The project uses Tailwind CSS v4. Customize your design system in:
- `src/app/globals.css` - Global styles and CSS variables
- `tailwind.config.js` - Tailwind configuration (if needed)

### shadcn/ui Theme

Customize the component theme by modifying the CSS variables in `src/app/globals.css`.

### State Management

- **Client State**: Use Jotai atoms for component state
- **Server State**: Use TanStack Query for API data

## 📦 Building for Production

```bash
npm run build
npm run start
```

The application will be optimized and ready for deployment.

## 🚀 Deployment

This Next.js application can be deployed to:

- **Vercel** (recommended)
- **Netlify**
- **AWS**
- **Docker**
- Any platform supporting Node.js
