React Stack Patterns

# React Stack Recommendations for Acme Corp's Data Dashboard

## Core Stack
- **Framework**: Next.js 14 (App Router) for SSR/SSG, built-in routing, and API routes
- **Styling**: Tailwind CSS + shadcn/ui for component primitives and design system
- **State Management**: Zustand for client-side state (scalable alternative to Redux)
- **Data Fetching**: React Query for server state management and caching

## Build Tools
- **Bundler**: Turbopack (Next.js 14) or Vite for faster HMR
- **Type Safety**: TypeScript 5.0 with strict config
- **Linting**: ESLint with Next.js and Prettier integration
- **Testing**: Vitest + React Testing Library + Playwright for E2E

## Recommended Add-ons
- **Auth**: NextAuth.js with OAuth providers (Google, GitHub)
- **Analytics**: PostHog for feature flags and session replay
- **Deployment**: Vercel for edge functions and preview deployments
- **Monitoring**: Sentry for error tracking

## Why This Stack?
Next.js provides SSR benefits for SEO and performance while keeping DX simple. Zustand scales better than Redux for our dashboard’s moderate state needs. React Query handles our API-heavy use case efficiently. Turbopack’s speed is crucial during development with 50+ components.

**Migration Path**: Start with static pages, gradually add SSR routes as needed. Use feature flags to roll out new patterns.
