## 🎨 Styling & Theming

The project uses Tailwind CSS with a custom color scheme:

### Colors
- **Background**: `#0A0E27` (black)
- **Primary**: `#22c55e` (emerald-500)
- **Secondary**: Slate gray colors
- **Accents**: Emerald shades for highlights

### Key Tailwind Config Features
- Custom gradient backgrounds
- Glow effects with custom shadows
- Animation utilities
- Responsive breakpoints

### Using Layout Classes
```tsx
// Dark SaaS background
<div className="bg-gradient-saas">

// Primary button with glow
<Button className="shadow-glow">Generate CVs</Button>

// Card with optional glow and inner glow
<Card glow innerGlow>Content</Card>

// Emerald gradient text
<h1 className="bg-gradient-emerald bg-clip-text text-transparent">
  Title
</h1>
```

## 🧩 Components

### Common Components

All components are in `src/components/common/`:

#### Button
```tsx
<Button 
  variant="primary" // primary, secondary, outline, ghost, danger
  size="lg"         // sm, md, lg
  loading={false}
  icon={<Icon />}
  fullWidth
>
  Click Me
</Button>
```

#### Card
```tsx
<Card hover glow innerGlow>
  Content with animations
</Card>
```

#### Input
```tsx
<Input
  label="Your Name"
  placeholder="Enter name"
  error={errors.name}
  icon={<Icon />}
  helperText="Optional"
/>
```

#### Badge
```tsx
<Badge variant="primary" size="md" icon={<Icon />}>
  Label
</Badge>
```

#### Modal
```tsx
<Modal isOpen={isOpen} onClose={handleClose} title="Dialog">
  Content
</Modal>
```

#### Toast Notification
```tsx
<Toast
  type="success"      // success, error, warning, info
  message="Success!"
  title="Great"
  onClose={() => {}}
  autoClose={true}
/>
```

## 📊 State Management with Zustand

The app uses Zustand for state management. Store is located in `src/store/appStore.ts`:

```tsx
import { useJobStore } from '@/store/appStore';

function MyComponent() {
  const { jobs, setJobs, cvTemplate, setCVTemplate } = useJobStore();
  
  // State is automatically persisted to localStorage
  // Update state by calling setter functions
}
```

### Available State
- `jobs` - Array of found jobs
- `cvTemplate` - Uploaded CV template
- `tailoringMode` - 'local' or 'api'
- `isSearching`, `isGenerating` - Loading states
- `selectedJobIds` - Jobs selected for batch generation
- `batchProgress` - Progress of batch operation
- `notification` - Toast notification data

## 🌐 API Integration

The frontend communicates with the backend via REST API endpoints in `src/utils/api.ts`:

```tsx
import { jobsAPI } from '@/utils/api';

// Search jobs
const result = await jobsAPI.searchJobs({ 
  keyword: 'React Developer', 
  location: 'San Francisco',
  maxJobs: 10 
});

// Upload CV
await jobsAPI.uploadCV(file);

// Generate CV
await jobsAPI.generateCV(jobId);

// Batch generate
await jobsAPI.generateAllCVs(jobIds);

// Download file
const blob = await jobsAPI.downloadFile(filename);
```

## 🎬 Animations with Framer Motion

All components use Framer Motion for smooth animations:

```tsx
import { motion } from 'framer-motion';

<motion.div
  initial={{ opacity: 0, y: 20 }}
  animate={{ opacity: 1, y: 0 }}
  exit={{ opacity: 0, y: -20 }}
  whileHover={{ scale: 1.05 }}
  whileTap={{ scale: 0.95 }}
>
  Animated content
</motion.div>
```

## 🔧 Development

### Commands

```bash
# Start dev server
npm run dev

# Build for production
npm run build

# Preview production build
npm run preview

# Type check
npm run type-check

# Lint code
npm run lint
```

### File Paths

Components use path aliases for clean imports:

```tsx
// Instead of:
import Button from '../../../components/common/Button';

// Use:
import { Button } from '@/components/common';
import type { Job } from '@/types';
```

Available aliases:
- `@/components/*` - Components
- `@/store/*` - State management
- `@/types/*` - Type definitions
- `@/utils/*` - Utilities
- `@/hooks/*` - Custom hooks

## 🚀 Build & Deployment

### Production Build

```bash
npm run build
```

This generates a production-optimized build in `dist/` folder that gets served by the Flask backend.

### Integration with Flask

The Vite config is set up to build directly into the Flask static folder:

```
frontend/dist/ → job_apply_ai/ui/static/dist/
```

The Flask app serves these files at `/static/dist/` or `/app/` routes.

## 📱 Responsive Design

The app is fully responsive with Tailwind breakpoints:

```tsx
<div className="grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 lg:grid-cols-4">
  // 1 column on mobile, 2 on tablet, 4 on desktop
</div>
```

## ♿ Accessibility

- Semantic HTML
- ARIA labels where needed
- Keyboard navigation support
- Focus states for all interactive elements
- Color contrast compliance

## 🐛 Troubleshooting

### Dev server not connecting to backend
- Ensure Flask is running on port 5050
- Check `VITE_API_URL` in `.env`
- Clear browser cache

### Tailwind styles not applying
- Restart dev server
- Verify file paths in `tailwind.config.js` include all source files

### Type errors
- Run `npm run type-check`
- Ensure `tsconfig.json` paths are correct
