📋 Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

• Node.js (v18 or higher) and npm installed
• Git for version control
• Code editor (Visual Studio Code recommended)
• Access to the private DefiFundr repository
• MetaMask or compatible Web3 wallet for testing

🚀 Installation

1. Clone the private repository:

   git clone https://github.com/defifundr/defifundr-web-app.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd defifundr-web-app

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install

4. Set up environment variables:

   cp .env.example .env.local

   Update the .env.local file with your configuration:

   REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL=https://api.defifundr.com
   REACT_APP_SOLANA_RPC_URL=your_solana_rpc_url
   REACT_APP_ETHEREUM_RPC_URL=your_ethereum_rpc_url
   REACT_APP_WALLETCONNECT_PROJECT_ID=your_walletconnect_id

🎨 Tailwind CSS Styling Guidelines

🚨 Important Styling Rules

• Always use Tailwind's predefined classes
• Avoid arbitrary values (square bracket notation)
• Maintain design system consistency

✅ Correct Usage Examples:

// Correct: Use predefined Tailwind classes
<div className="w-full h-64 text-lg p-4 m-2 bg-blue-500 rounded-lg shadow-md">
  <button className="px-6 py-3 bg-indigo-600 text-white rounded-md hover:bg-indigo-700 transition-colors">
    Connect Wallet
  </button>
</div>

// For DefiFundr brand colors
<div className="bg-indigo-600 text-white border-indigo-500">
  Brand Elements
</div>

❌ Incorrect Usage Examples:

// Incorrect: Avoid arbitrary values
<div className="w-[345px] h-[200px] text-[17px] p-[15px] bg-[#4F46E5]">
  Content
</div>

🔧 Handling Non-Standard Sizes

When a specific size isn't available in Tailwind:

1. Use the closest predefined class
2. Combine multiple classes if needed
3. Consult the team for design system updates

📏 Common Conversions

Instead of	Use
w-[345px]	w-80 or w-96
text-[17px]	text-base or text-lg
p-[15px]	p-4
h-[200px]	h-48 or h-52
bg-[#4F46E5]	bg-indigo-600

🌿 Branch and Commit Conventions

Branch Naming Convention

Always create branches from the main branch:

For new features:

git checkout main
git pull origin main
git checkout -b feature/descriptive_feature_name

Examples:

• git checkout -b feature/wallet_integration
• git checkout -b feature/payroll_dashboard
• git checkout -b feature/invoice_creation

For bug fixes:

git checkout main
git pull origin main
git checkout -b fix/descriptive_fix_name

Examples:

• git checkout -b fix/wallet_connection_error
• git checkout -b fix/payroll_calculation_bug

For urgent hotfixes:

git checkout main
git checkout -b hotfix/critical_issue_name

📝 Commit Message Convention

Use descriptive commit messages following this format:

For features:

git commit -m "feature: brief description of the feature"

Examples:

• git commit -m "feature: add MetaMask wallet connection"
• git commit -m "feature: implement payroll scheduling interface"
• git commit -m "feature: add multi-signature approval flow"

For fixes:

git commit -m "fix: brief description of the fix"

Examples:

• git commit -m "fix: resolve wallet disconnection issue"

For documentation:

git commit -m "docs: update API documentation"`

For styling:

git commit -m "style: improve responsive design for mobile"`
