## Development Guidelines
### Adding a New Page
1. Create the HTML file in `src/pages/`
2. Add the page to `vite.config.js` in the `rollupOptions.input` section
3. Create corresponding JavaScript in `src/js/pages/`
4. Create SCSS file in `src/scss/pages/` and import in `main.scss`
5. Update sidebar navigation in `src/partials/layouts/sidebar.hbs`
### Component Structure
JavaScript modules follow this pattern:
```javascript
export function initializeComponent() {
// Component logic
}
// Auto-initialize on DOM ready
if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', initializeComponent);
} else {
initializeComponent();
}
```
### SCSS Organization
- Use Bootstrap variables for consistency
- Follow BEM naming convention where applicable
- Keep component styles modular
- Use mixins for repeated patterns
## Performance Optimization
- Vite's code splitting for optimal loading
- Lazy loading for heavy components
- Optimized images and assets
- Minimal CSS with PurgeCSS in production
- ES6 modules for tree shaking

The production build can be deployed to any static hosting service:
1. Build the project: `npm run build`

3. Configure your server to serve `index.html` for all routes
