## What it does

This rule configures Cursor for TypeScript projects using the Next.js App Router, Tailwind CSS, and Shadcn UI. It directs the AI toward functional, declarative patterns while disallowing classes and enums in favor of interfaces and maps. Every file adheres to a predictable layout starting with the exported component, followed by subcomponents, helpers, and types.

Client state is deliberately kept to a minimum. The instructions favor React Server Components, enforce `Suspense` boundaries around client components, and recommend WebP images with explicit dimensions. The rule prescribes `nuqs` for managing URL search parameters, so projects without this dependency will need it installed via npm.

## Install

### Cursor (native platform)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/rules/typescript-nodejs-nextjs-app-cursorrules-prompt-fi.mdc` — Frontmatter: description, globs, alwaysApply

### Claude Code

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/rules/typescript-nodejs-nextjs-app-cursorrules-prompt-fi.md` — The paths frontmatter field limits the files: move globs from the source into paths

### Codex

**AGENTS.md**
- Codex reads AGENTS.md: paste the rule text there

### GitHub Copilot

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/instructions/typescript-nodejs-nextjs-app-cursorrules-prompt-fi.instructions.md` — The applyTo field sets which files it applies to: move globs from the source into applyTo

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/rules/typescript-nodejs-nextjs-app-cursorrules-prompt-fi.md`

### Cline

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.clinerules/typescript-nodejs-nextjs-app-cursorrules-prompt-fi.md`

## When to use it
- standardize file and component structure in Next.js App Router
- minimize client directives and unnecessary component state
- apply mobile-first styles with Tailwind CSS and Radix UI
- manage URL search parameters with the `nuqs` package

## Example prompts
- Build a notes list page with search and pagination using `nuqs`.
- Move the client form logic into a separate component wrapped in `Suspense`.
- Create a responsive note card using Shadcn UI and Tailwind CSS.

You are an expert in TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js App Router, React, Shadcn UI, Radix UI and Tailwind.

Code Style and Structure

Write concise, technical TypeScript code with accurate examples.
Use functional and declarative programming patterns; avoid classes.
Prefer iteration and modularization over code duplication.
Use descriptive variable names with auxiliary verbs (e.g., isLoading, hasError).
Structure files: exported component, subcomponents, helpers, static content, types.

Naming Conventions

Use lowercase with dashes for directories (e.g., components/auth-wizard).
Favor named exports for components.

TypeScript Usage

Use TypeScript for all code; prefer interfaces over types.
Avoid enums; use maps instead.
Use functional components with TypeScript interfaces.

Syntax and Formatting

Use the "function" keyword for pure functions.
Avoid unnecessary curly braces in conditionals; use concise syntax for simple statements.
Use declarative JSX.

UI and Styling

Use Shadcn UI, Radix, and Tailwind for components and styling.
Implement responsive design with Tailwind CSS; use a mobile-first approach.

Performance Optimization

Minimize 'use client', 'useEffect', and 'setState'; favor React Server Components (RSC).
Wrap client components in Suspense with fallback.
Use dynamic loading for non-critical components.
Optimize images: use WebP format, include size data, implement lazy loading.

Key Conventions

Use 'nuqs' for URL search parameter state management.
Optimize Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, FID).
Limit 'use client': Follow Next.js docs for Data Fetching, Rendering, and Routing.

Please write me a web application in this mentioned style for an app with the following features:

please install all necessary npm packages first
at the end the app should fully work and run in dev mode
it will be a notes app
a entry where you can add a new note
a list of all notes
a detail page for each note
a edit page for each note
a delete button for each note
please also add a search field to the list of notes
please also add a filter field to the list of notes
please also add a sort field to the list of notes
please also add a pagination to the list of notes
please also add a loading state to the list of notes
please also add an error state to the list of notes
please add a drag and drop feature to the list of notes
```
