Quick Workflow

1. Identify business — name, type, location, brand vibe
2. Pick color palette — see references/business-types.md
3. Scaffold project — run setup commands
4. Write config files — tailwind, CSS, index.html, App.jsx
5. Write components — Navbar, Footer, ScrollToTop
6. Write 5 pages — Home, Services, Portfolio/Gallery, About, Contact
7. Build & verify — npm run build must pass clean

Key Patterns

App.jsx

\x3CBrowserRouter>
  \x3CScrollToTop />
  \x3Cdiv className="flex flex-col min-h-screen">
    \x3CNavbar />
    \x3Cmain className="flex-1">\x3CRoutes>...\x3C/Routes>\x3C/main>
    \x3CFooter />
  \x3C/div>
\x3C/BrowserRouter>

Framer Motion — Scroll Animations

// Standard fade-up on scroll
\x3Cmotion.div
  initial={{ opacity: 0, y: 30 }}
  whileInView={{ opacity: 1, y: 0 }}
  viewport={{ once: true }}
  transition={{ delay: index * 0.1 }}
>

Staggered Children

const stagger = { visible: { transition: { staggerChildren: 0.12 } } };
const fadeUp = { hidden: { opacity: 0, y: 30 }, visible: { opacity: 1, y: 0 } };
\x3Cmotion.div initial="hidden" animate="visible" variants={stagger}>
  \x3Cmotion.h1 variants={fadeUp}>...\x3C/motion.h1>
\x3C/motion.div>

Navbar Transparency Logic

const transparent = isHome && !scrolled && !mobileOpen;
// Apply: transparent ? "bg-transparent text-white" : "bg-white/95 backdrop-blur shadow"

Contact Form Validation

const validate = () => {
  const e = {};
  if (!form.name.trim()) e.name = "Required";
  if (!/\S+@\S+\.\S+/.test(form.email)) e.email = "Valid email required";
  if (!form.message.trim()) e.message = "Required";
  return e;
};

Image Strategy

Use Unsplash with size + quality params: ?w=1920&q=80 (hero), ?w=800&q=80 (cards), ?w=600&q=80 (thumbnails). Always add object-cover class. See references/business-types.md for per-industry URL packs.

Build Verification

npm run build   # Must exit 0 with no errors

CSS @import must come before @tailwind directives or PostCSS will warn.

Dev Server

# Keep alive via OpenClaw background exec (not nohup):
# exec(command: "cd \x3Cdir> && npx vite --host 0.0.0.0 --port 5173", background: true)
# Access: http://localhost:5173
