Shared Next.js and web conventions

  • Validate every input from forms and APIs with a schema validator (for example Zod with .safeParse()).
  • Default to Server Components. Use 'use client' only for state or event handling.
  • Prefer Server Actions over API routes when possible. Return { ok: true, data? } | { ok: false, error }, where error is the { code, message, details? } object from developer-os:error-handling-conventions.
  • Follow the project's migration policy; if it declares none, write forward-only migrations.
  • When the project has a DESIGN.md, record in docs/decisions/ which side is the source of truth for tokens (DESIGN.md generating the Tailwind theme, or the reverse), and keep the other in sync.
  • Route analytics calls through the project's tracking wrapper when one exists, behind a consent gate where the platform requires consent.
