React Rebuild Plan for BCT Whitelabel (reactrebuild0825)

Project Overview

This is a frontend-only React rebuild of the Black Canyon Tickets platform for learning purposes. The goal is to recreate the UI/UX without any database connections or live APIs - using mock data instead.

Key Design Patterns

Glassmorphism Theme System

.glass-card {
  background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1);
  backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
  border: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2);
  border-radius: 16px;
}

.glass-navigation {
  background: linear-gradient(135deg, rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.1), rgba(147, 51, 234, 0.1));
  backdrop-filter: blur(20px);
}

Component Architecture

• Atomic Design: Atoms (Button, Input) → Molecules (Form, Card) → Organisms (Navigation, EventGrid)
• Composition over inheritance
• Custom hooks for shared logic
• Context providers for global state

State Management

• Zustand stores for different domains (auth, events, tickets)
• React Query for server state simulation
• Local state with useState/useReducer for component state

CLAUDE.md Instructions for Future Sessions

# React Rebuild Project - Frontend Only

## Important Notes

- This is a LEARNING PROJECT - frontend only, no live APIs
- Uses MOCK DATA instead of real database connections
- Focuses on recreating UI/UX from original BCT Whitelabel project
- Glassmorphism design system with dark themes and blur effects

## Project Goals

- Learn React patterns and modern frontend architecture
- Practice component composition and state management
- Implement responsive design with Tailwind CSS
- Create smooth animations and interactions

## Key Commands

- `npm run dev` - Development server
- `npm run build` - Production build
- `npm run lint` - Code quality checks

## Architecture

- React 18 + TypeScript + Vite
- React Router for navigation
- Zustand for state management
- Tailwind CSS with custom glassmorphism theme
- Mock data services (no real APIs)

## Do NOT

- Set up real database connections
- Use live API keys or services
- Create actual payment processing
- Implement real authentication

## DO

- Focus on UI/UX recreation
- Use mock data and simulated API calls
- Implement responsive design
- Create smooth animations
- Follow component composition patterns
