# Project Conventions

## Language
- TypeScript strict mode, no `any` types
- Prefer const over let, never use var
- Use template literals over string concatenation

## Architecture
- Feature-based folder structure under src/features/
- Each feature exports through an index.ts barrel file
- Shared utilities go in src/lib/

## Error Handling
- Use Result<T, E> pattern for expected failures
- Throw only for programmer errors
- Always log errors with structured context

## Testing
- Colocate tests next to source files (*.test.ts)
- Use factories for test data, not fixtures
- Integration tests in __tests__/ directories

# Copilot Instructions

## Code Style
- Use TypeScript strict mode for all new files
- Prefer functional components with hooks over class components
- Use named exports, not default exports

## Libraries
- Use date-fns for date manipulation (not moment.js)
- Use zod for runtime validation
- Prefer fetch over axios for HTTP requests

## Testing
- Write tests using Vitest
- Use Testing Library for component tests
- Aim for integration tests over unit tests

## Conventions
- Use camelCase for variables, PascalCase for components
- Prefix interfaces with I (e.g., IUserProps)
- Keep files under 300 lines; extract if longer
