# supastarter for Next.js – Skill

Expert guidance for building production-ready SaaS applications with the supastarter Next.js starter kit. **Next.js only**; no Vue/Nuxt content.

## When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

- Building or modifying a supastarter Next.js app
- Adding features (new entities, API endpoints, UI, i18n)
- Working with Prisma, oRPC, Better Auth, Stripe, or the monorepo structure
- Debugging setup, configuration, deployment, or troubleshooting
- The user mentions supastarter Next.js, Prisma, oRPC, Better Auth, or related stack topics

## High-Level Workflow: New Feature

Follow this order when adding a feature:

1. **Schema** – Add or update Prisma models in `packages/database/prisma/schema.prisma`; run migrations.
2. **Queries** – Add query functions in `packages/database/prisma/queries/` and export from `queries/index.ts`.
3. **API** – Add oRPC procedures in `packages/api/modules/<name>/` (types, procedures, router); mount router in `packages/api/orpc/router.ts`.
4. **UI** – Add React components in `apps/web/` (e.g. `modules/shared/components/`); use shadcn, TanStack Query, session hooks.
5. **i18n** – Add translation keys in `packages/i18n/translations/{en,de}.json`.

Full walkthrough: [assets/recipes/feedback-widget.md](assets/recipes/feedback-widget.md).

## Project Structure (Next.js Monorepo)

```
apps/web/                 # Next.js app (App Router, app/, components/, config/, lib/)
packages/
  api/                    # Hono + oRPC (modules/, orpc/router.ts)
  auth/                   # Better Auth config
  database/               # Prisma schema, migrations, queries
  i18n/                   # Translations
  mail/                   # React Email templates, providers
  storage/                # S3-compatible storage
  ui/                     # Shared UI (shadcn)
  config/                 # Shared config
```

Use package exports (e.g. `@repo/api`, `@repo/database`) instead of deep relative imports.

## References (Progressive Disclosure)

Load only the reference files you need. All paths are from the skill root, one level deep.

**Before writing code**, read [references/coding-conventions.md](references/coding-conventions.md). For copy-paste patterns and commands, use [references/code-patterns.md](references/code-patterns.md) and [references/quick-reference.md](references/quick-reference.md).

## Assets

- **Env template**: [assets/env.example](assets/env.example) – environment variable keys and short comments (no secrets).
- **Full recipe**: [assets/recipes/feedback-widget.md](assets/recipes/feedback-widget.md) – build a feature from DB → API → UI → i18n (feedback widget example).

## Scripts

- **generate_module.py** – Scaffolds a new API module (types, procedures, router). See [scripts/README.md](scripts/README.md) or the Scripts section below.

**How to run** (from supastarter monorepo root):

```bash
python scripts/generate_module.py <module-name>
```

Example: `python scripts/generate_module.py feedback` creates `packages/api/modules/feedback/` with `types.ts`, `procedures/create.ts`, and `router.ts`. Mount the router in `packages/api/orpc/router.ts` manually.

## Conventions (Summary)

- TypeScript everywhere; interfaces for object shapes.
- Named function exports for React components; prefer Server Components; use `"use client"` only when needed.
- Forms: react-hook-form + zod; API: oRPC procedures in `packages/api/modules/`.
- Use `@repo/*` package imports; do not instantiate Prisma/Drizzle in app code.
- pnpm, Biome (format/lint), Turbo; Node.js ≥ 20.

**Before writing code**, read [references/coding-conventions.md](references/coding-conventions.md). For examples and commands: [references/code-patterns.md](references/code-patterns.md), [references/quick-reference.md](references/quick-reference.md), [references/customization.md](references/customization.md), [references/api-patterns.md](references/api-patterns.md).
