Development Guidelines

Adding a New Page

1. Create the HTML file in src/pages/
2. Add the page to vite.config.js in the rollupOptions.input section
3. Create corresponding JavaScript in src/js/pages/
4. Create SCSS file in src/scss/pages/ and import in main.scss
5. Update sidebar navigation in src/partials/layouts/sidebar.hbs

Component Structure

JavaScript modules follow this pattern:

export function initializeComponent() {
    // Component logic
}

// Auto-initialize on DOM ready
if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', initializeComponent);
} else {
    initializeComponent();
}

SCSS Organization

• Use Bootstrap variables for consistency
• Follow BEM naming convention where applicable
• Keep component styles modular
• Use mixins for repeated patterns

Performance Optimization

• Vite's code splitting for optimal loading
• Lazy loading for heavy components
• Optimized images and assets
• Minimal CSS with PurgeCSS in production
• ES6 modules for tree shaking
