This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

This is a Next.js 15.3.3 application with TypeScript, React 18, and multiple deployment options. The app exposes harmful activities and supports Kristen Jacobs through a GoFundMe campaign.

Architecture Overview

App Structure

• App Router: Uses Next.js App Router in src/app/
• Pages: Homepage, Gallery (YouTube videos), Dadvocate (curated videos), Long Story
• Static Export: Configured with output: 'export' for static hosting
• Deployment: AWS S3 static hosting

Key Patterns

1. UI Components: Full shadcn/ui component library in src/components/ui/
2. Styling: Tailwind CSS with custom theme, use cn() utility for class merging
3. Data Fetching: Server-side fetching with fallback data, 1-hour cache for YouTube API
4. Environment Variables: YOUTUBE_API_KEY (required), S3_BUCKET_NAME (for deployment)
5. Path Alias: Use @/ for imports from src/ directory

Build & Deployment Details

• Version Tracking: Build process injects git commit hash into footer via scripts/set-git-commit.js
• Static Files: Build outputs to out/ directory for S3 deployment
• Build Errors: TypeScript and ESLint errors are ignored (configured in next.config.ts)
• S3 Deployment: Uses dotenv-cli to load environment variables from .env.local
• Pre-commit Hooks: Husky installed for running lint checks before commits

Development Notes

• No Testing Framework: Project currently has no test setup
• AI Integration: Genkit configured with Google AI (Gemini 2.0 Flash) but minimally implemented
• Theme: Dark/light mode support via next-themes
• Image Optimization: Configured for YouTube thumbnails and placeholder images

Adding Features

• New pages: Create directory in src/app/ with page.tsx and export metadata
• New components: Add to src/components/ or use existing shadcn/ui components
• YouTube videos: Update video IDs in gallery/page.tsx or dadvocate/page.tsx, then rebuild

Code Style Guidelines

• Always use 'tea' instead of 'gh'
