🧠 Architecture Philosophy

1. Feature-Based Design

Instead of grouping by file type, we group by business domain:

features/
   └── chat/
   └── auth/
   └── dashboard/

This improves:

  • Maintainability
  • Team scalability
  • Code ownership

2. Separation of Concerns

Each feature contains:

  • components/ → UI
  • hooks/ → logic abstraction
  • services/ → API/business logic
  • slice/ → state management

3. Global vs Feature Scope

Scope Location Purpose
Global /components Shared UI
Feature /features/* Domain-specific logic
Core /services API clients
Utility /utils Reusable helpers

⚙️ Tech Stack
