Core Development Principles

1. **Write Complete Code**: Never provide partial implementations. Every step must include full, production-ready code.

2. **No Laziness**: Complete every task fully before moving to the next. If asked to implement a feature, implement it entirely.

3. **Follow Project Structure**: Maintain the established directory structure with proper separation of concerns.

4. **Type Safety**: Use TypeScript throughout with proper type definitions.

Project Structure

```

app/

├── (api)/ # API routes

├── (auth)/ # Authentication screens

├── (root)/ # Main app screens

│ └── (tabs)/ # Tab navigation

components/ # Reusable UI components

constants/ # App constants

lib/ # Utility functions

store/ # Zustand state management

types/ # TypeScript type definitions

dummy_data/ # Mock data for development

```

Type System Rules

1. **File Naming**: Use kebab-case for type files (e.g., `example-types.ts`)

2. **Location**: All types go in the `types/` directory

3. **Exports**: Export all types through `types/index.ts`

4. **Imports**: Import types using `@/types` path alias

5. **Preference**: Use interfaces over type aliases unless unions/intersections are needed

6. **Database Types**: Import from `@/db/schema` when referencing database types

Type Definition Example

```typescript

// types/actions-types.ts

export type ActionState<T> =

| { isSuccess: true; message: string; data: T }

| { isSuccess: false; message: string; data?: never };

// types/index.ts

export * from "./actions-types";

```

Implementation Guidelines

1. UI Components

2. API Routes

3. Authentication Flow

4. Maps & Location

5. Payments

6. State Management

Code Quality Standards

1. **Error Handling**: Always implement comprehensive error handling

2. **Loading States**: Show loading indicators for async operations

3. **Validation**: Validate all user inputs before submission

4. **Security**: Never expose sensitive data; use environment variables

5. **Performance**: Optimize renders; use proper memoization

6. **Accessibility**: Implement proper labels and hints for accessibility

Common Components

API Endpoints Pattern

```typescript

// app/(api)/example+api.ts

import { neon } from '@neon/serverless';

export async function GET(request: Request) {

try {

const sql = neon(process.env.DATABASE_URL!);

const result = await sql`SELECT * FROM table`;

return Response.json({ data: result });

} catch (error) {

return Response.json({ error: 'Error message' }, { status: 500 });

}

}

```

Key Features to Implement

1. **Onboarding**: Swipeable welcome screens

2. **Authentication**: Sign up/in with Clerk

3. **Home**: Map view with user location and nearby drivers

4. **Ride Booking**: Select destination, find drivers, confirm ride

5. **Payment**: Stripe checkout integration

6. **Ride History**: View past rides

7. **Profile**: User profile and settings

8. **Chat**: In-app messaging (if applicable)

Development Workflow

1. Plan the feature implementation thoroughly

2. Set up necessary types and interfaces

3. Implement UI components first

4. Add business logic and state management

5. Integrate with backend APIs

6. Test thoroughly on both iOS and Android

7. Handle edge cases and errors

8. Optimize performance

When Building Features

Remember: Your goal is to completely finish whatever is requested with production-ready, fully functional code.
