# Design : cross-project conventions Applies to every project. Project-specific rules (color tokens, typography, density, animations, i18n) belong in the `design-system.md` at the project root. --- ## Universal UI stack - **Tailwind CSS** (v3 or v4 depending on the project, never mixed within one project) - **Radix UI + shadcn/ui** : primitive library, never replaced by Ant Design, MUI, Chakra - **CVA** (`class-variance-authority`) : component variants - **tailwind-merge** : conflict-free class merging - **`cn()` utility** : `clsx` + `tailwind-merge`, exported from `src/lib/utils.ts` - **Lucide React** : icons (not heroicons, not react-icons) --- ## Component organization ``` src/components/ ui/ ← shadcn primitives (atoms) design/ ← reusable domain components (molecules) layout/ ← Sidebar, Topbar, Navbar, Footer [domain]/ ← feature-specific components ``` - PascalCase for files: `FormField.tsx`, `StatusBadge.tsx` - Named export + `displayName` for `forwardRef` components - Props type: `${ComponentName}Props` (e.g. `ButtonProps`) --- ## shadcn primitives (always present) **Atoms**: Button, Input, Textarea, Label, Checkbox, Switch, Select, Badge, Avatar, Skeleton **Molecules**: Card, Dialog, DropdownMenu, Tabs, Tooltip, Popover, RadioGroup Never rebuild these from scratch. Extend them via CVA or wrapping when needed. --- ## Recurring custom patterns ### Combobox - Built on **cmdk** (`Command` + `CommandInput` + `CommandList`), not Radix Select - Live search on keystroke, no submit button - Clear button (× icon, `size-3`) on the right, `stopPropagation` - Dropdown chevron on the right, `text-gray-400 size-3.5` - Search placeholder: `"Rechercher…"` - Empty state: `"Aucun X trouvé"` - Max 50 results shown (filter/paginate beyond that) - Keyboard: arrows to navigate, Enter to select, Escape to close ### FormField ```tsx

{label} {error &&

{error}

} {helpText && !error &&

{helpText}

}

``` ### DataTable - Skeleton rows (`h-4 w-full`) while loading - Empty state: `"Aucun résultat"`, centered - Columns via `render: (row) => ReactNode` callback - Semantic structure: ``, ``, ``, ``, `` ### StatusBadge - `outline` variant with semantic colors - Colors: success (green), warning (amber), danger (red), info (blue), neutral (gray) - Labels in French: "Actif", "En attente", "Erreur", "Inactif", etc. --- ## Accessibility (non-negotiable minimum) - **Inputs**: `aria-invalid={!!error}`, `aria-describedby` pointing to the error message ID - **Errors**: `role="alert"` on the message, automatic announcement - **Visible focus**: `focus-visible:ring-2 focus-visible:ring-offset-1`, never remove `outline` - **Disabled**: `disabled:opacity-50 disabled:cursor-not-allowed disabled:pointer-events-none` - **Decorative icons**: no `aria-label` (Lucide renders them decorative by default) - **Meaningful icons** (no adjacent text): `aria-label` required - **Modals**: trap focus (Radix Dialog handles it), Escape to close - **Labels**: always `htmlFor` bound to the input `id`, never a visual label without a link --- ## UI copy (French by default) - Empty states: `"Aucun X trouvé"` / `"Aucun résultat"` - Actions: `"Ajouter"`, `"Supprimer"`, `"Enregistrer"`, `"Annuler"`, `"Modifier"` - Destructive confirmation: `"Supprimer définitivement"` (not just `"Supprimer"`) - Search placeholder: `"Rechercher…"` - Loading: `"Chargement…"` (not `"Loading..."`) - No `—` in visible text (see global CLAUDE.md rule) --- ## What does NOT belong here (→ project design-system.md) - Color tokens (primary palette, semantic, dark mode) - Typography (font choice, base size, weights) - Density (compact back-office 14px vs relaxed marketing 16px) - Custom animations and micro-interactions - i18n approach and routing conventions - Breakpoints and specific layout max-width
