Copilot AI commented Feb 5, 2026

The frontend layer lacked documentation beyond Vite boilerplate. Added comprehensive technical documentation and practical quick-start guide.

New Documentation

docs/frontend.md (459 lines)

  • Architecture: React 18 + Vite + Tailwind + React Query v3 + React Router v7
  • Component structure and organization (admin/, entity/, context/)
  • State management patterns (Context API for UI, React Query for server state)
  • API integration with smart URL detection (Codespaces, runtime config, localhost fallback)
  • Development workflow, configuration files, common patterns
  • Performance, accessibility, security, and troubleshooting guidance

frontend/README.md (replaced boilerplate)

  • Quick start commands and project structure
  • Technology stack and key features
  • Common tasks and contribution guidelines
  • Links to comprehensive documentation

Updated Cross-References

  • README.md - Added frontend documentation link
  • docs/architecture.md - Enhanced frontend section with tech stack details and reference to detailed docs

All documentation verified against actual codebase structure, dependencies (React Query v3.39.3), and build configuration.
