## Phase 1 — Discovery & Scaffolding
### Tech Stack
| Layer | Technology |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Framework** | Next.js 15 (App Router, Turbopack) |
| **Language** | TypeScript 5.3 |
| **UI Runtime** | React 19 RC (`19.0.0-rc-66855b96-20241106`) |
| **Styling** | Tailwind CSS 3 + `@medusajs/ui` + Radix UI |
| **Commerce Backend** | Medusa V2 (`@medusajs/js-sdk`) |
| **Payments** | Stripe (`@stripe/react-stripe-js`), PayPal |
| **Package Manager** | Yarn 3 (Berry) |
| **Database (indirect)** | `pg` listed as dependency — Medusa owns the DB connection |
### Entry Points & Critical Files
| File | Role |
| ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `src/middleware.ts` | **True entry point.** Intercepts every request, resolves country code from Vercel geo-header or URL, and redirects to `/{countryCode}/...` |
| `src/app/layout.tsx` | Root Next.js layout (HTML shell, global styles) |
| `src/app/[countryCode]/(main)/layout.tsx` | **Primary layout shell.** Loads the JSON design config, fetches cart + customer, and hands everything to `DynamicLayoutRenderer` |
| `src/vibentec/configloader.ts` | Reads active design JSON from `config/` at request time |
| `src/vibentec/devJsonFileNames.ts` | Hardcoded switch that selects which tenant/design JSON is active |
| `src/lib/config.ts` | Instantiates the Medusa JS SDK singleton |
| `src/lib/data/` | All server-side data fetching (cart, customer, products, orders, regions, etc.) |
---
## Phase 2 — Codebase Triage
### Architectural Pattern
This is a **modular monolith storefront** using Next.js App Router with a custom **JSON-driven dynamic layout layer** on top. There are two distinct halves:
1. **Standard Medusa Storefront** — The base is a Medusa V2 Next.js starter. It follows a clear `modules/``templates/``components/` hierarchy, with server-side data fetching in `lib/data/` feeding React Server Components.
2. **Vibentec UI Builder** — A bespoke system in `src/vibentec/` that allows the entire page shell (header, nav, footer, banners) to be defined declaratively in JSON config files (`/config/`). At runtime, `DynamicLayoutRenderer` walks the JSON node tree and maps keys to React components via `componentMap`. Multiple tenant/brand configs exist: `3bear`, `drsquatch`, `vibentec`, `mds-starter`, `medusa-starter`, `playground`.
### Core Domain
`src/lib/data/` is the data layer. `src/modules/` holds all business-domain UI (account, cart, checkout, products, orders, collections, store). The custom differentiator is `src/vibentec/` — this is Vibentec's intellectual property layered on top of the OSS Medusa starter.
### Technical Debt & Health Assessment
| Severity | Issue |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **High** | `REVALIDATE_SECRET=supersecret` is committed in `.env` — must be rotated before production |
| **High** | A real publishable API key (`pk_65b8a...`) is hardcoded in the committed `.env` file |
| **Medium** | React 19 **RC** (release candidate) is pinned — not a stable release |
| **Medium** | Active tenant config is hardcoded in `src/vibentec/devJsonFileNames.ts` — switching brands requires a code change |
| **Medium** | `LayoutContext` uses `any` for `customer` and `cart` — kills type safety at the renderer boundary |
| **Medium** | `pg` is listed as a direct dependency but no direct DB usage exists in this storefront |
| **Low** | Zero test files found anywhere in the project |
| **Low** | `@types/react-instantsearch-dom` in devDeps but no instantsearch code exists — unused dependency |
---
## Phase 3 — Documentation
### 1. High-Level System Overview
This is a **multi-tenant e-commerce storefront** built on Next.js 15 (App Router), serving as the customer-facing frontend for a Medusa V2 headless commerce backend. The application handles the full retail customer journey: browsing products by category or collection, managing a cart, checking out with Stripe or PayPal, and managing account details and order history. All routes are prefixed with a country code (e.g., `/us/`, `/de/`), which is resolved at the edge by middleware that consults Medusa's region API and Vercel's geo-IP headers to deliver region-appropriate pricing and shipping rules.
The most significant custom layer is the **Vibentec UI Builder** (`src/vibentec/`). Rather than hard-coding the page shell (header, nav, banner bar, footer), the entire layout is declared as a JSON component tree stored in `config/*.design.json` files. At request time, the primary layout server component reads the active JSON file, passes it to `DynamicLayoutRenderer`, which walks the tree and resolves component names to actual React components via `componentMap`. This makes the full layout of the storefront configurable without touching React code — a white-label capability designed to serve multiple brands from a single codebase.
Data flows unidirectionally from the Medusa backend through server-side `"use server"` functions in `src/lib/data/`, which use the Medusa JS SDK with Next.js `force-cache` and tag-based revalidation. There is no client-side global state management (no Redux, Zustand, or React Query). The only React Context used is a minimal `ModalContext` scoped to the modal component. All authentication state is conveyed via cookies and forwarded as HTTP headers to Medusa.

### 3. Local Setup Guide
**Prerequisites:** Node.js ≥ 20, Yarn 3 (Berry), a running Medusa V2 backend with at least one Region configured.
```bash
# 1. Clone and install
git clone <repo-url>
cd Shop-Storefront
yarn install
# 2. Configure environment
cp .env .env.local
# Edit .env.local and set:
# MEDUSA_BACKEND_URL=http://localhost:9000
# NEXT_PUBLIC_MEDUSA_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=<your key from Medusa Admin>
# NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000
# NEXT_PUBLIC_DEFAULT_REGION=us
# REVALIDATE_SECRET=<generate a strong random string never use "supersecret">
# 3. Select the active brand design (defaults to namVibentec)
# Edit src/vibentec/devJsonFileNames.ts:
# const fileName = jsonFileNames.namVibentec; ← change to desired brand key
# 4. Run development server (Turbopack, port 8000)
yarn dev
# 5. Open browser — middleware will redirect to /{DEFAULT_REGION}/
open http://localhost:8000
```
**Build for production:**
```bash
yarn build
yarn start
```
> `next.config.js` calls `checkEnvVariables()` at startup. Missing required env vars will cause a descriptive build failure.

### 4. Key Domain Entities
Inferred from `@medusajs/types` (`HttpTypes`) as used by the data layer, plus local types in `src/types/global.ts`.
| Entity | Key Fields | Source |
| ------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| **StoreProduct** | `id`, `title`, `handle`, `thumbnail`, `variants[]`, `tags[]`, `metadata`, `collection`, `categories[]` | `lib/data/products.ts` |
| **StoreProductVariant** | `id`, `calculated_price`, `inventory_quantity`, `options[]` | Fetched with `*variants.calculated_price` field selector |
| **StoreCart** | `id`, `region_id`, `items[]`, `shipping_address`, `billing_address`, `email`, `promotions[]`, `shipping_methods[]`, `payment_collection` | `lib/data/cart.ts` |
| **StoreLineItem** | `id`, `variant_id`, `quantity`, `total`, `product`, `variant`, `thumbnail`, `metadata` | Part of StoreCart |
| **StoreRegion** | `id`, `countries[]` (each with `iso_2`) | `middleware.ts`, `lib/data/regions.ts` |
| **StoreCustomer** | `id`, `email`, `first_name`, `last_name`, `addresses[]`, `phone` | `lib/data/customer.ts` |
| **StoreOrder** | `id`, `status`, `items[]`, `shipping_address`, `payment_collections[]`, `fulfillments[]` | `lib/data/orders.ts` |
| **StoreCartShippingOption** | `id`, `name`, `amount`, `provider_id` | `lib/data/cart.ts``listCartOptions()` |
| **FeaturedProduct** _(local)_ | `id`, `title`, `handle`, `thumbnail` | `src/types/global.ts` |
| **VariantPrice** _(local)_ | `calculated_price`, `original_price`, `currency_code`, `price_type`, `percentage_diff` | `src/types/global.ts` |
| **StoreFreeShippingPrice** _(local)_ | extends `StorePrice` + `target_reached`, `target_remaining`, `remaining_percentage` | `src/types/global.ts` |
| **LayoutComponentNode** _(local)_ | `{ [ComponentName]: { config?, children? } }` | `src/vibentec/component-map.tsx` |

## Phase 4 — Maintenance Strategy
### 1. Immediate Risks
| Severity | Risk | Location | Action Required |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Critical** | Secrets committed to repository | `.env` | Rotate `NEXT_PUBLIC_MEDUSA_PUBLISHABLE_KEY` immediately. Regenerate `REVALIDATE_SECRET`. Use `.env.local` (already `.gitignore`'d) for real values. |
| **Critical** | Silent bug: missing `await` | `src/lib/data/cart.ts:339` | `const cartId = getCartId()` is missing `await`. `cartId` resolves to a `Promise` (truthy), so the guard `if (!cartId)` never fires. `setAddresses` silently fails to validate cart existence on cold sessions. Fix: `const cartId = await getCartId()` |
| **High** | Empty stub functions silently do nothing | `src/lib/data/cart.ts:279318` | `applyGiftCard`, `removeDiscount`, `removeGiftCard` are exported but completely empty. Any UI that calls them will silently succeed with no effect. Either implement for Medusa V2 or remove the exports. |
| **High** | TypeScript & ESLint errors suppressed at build | `next.config.js:2427` | `ignoreBuildErrors: true` and `ignoreDuringBuilds: true` ship broken types silently. Re-enable both before production and resolve resulting errors. |
| **Medium** | React 19 RC pinned | `package.json` | Pre-release runtime in production. Migrate to stable React 19 once available, or document the risk explicitly. |

### 2. Refactoring Opportunities (Low-Hanging Fruit)
Listed in priority order — highest impact for lowest effort first.
**1. Externalize active brand config to an environment variable**
- File: `src/vibentec/devJsonFileNames.ts`
- Change the hardcoded `const fileName = jsonFileNames.namVibentec` to read from `process.env.VIBENTEC_DESIGN_CONFIG`.
- Impact: Enables true multi-tenant deployment (different brands on different deployments) without any code changes. Currently requires a code commit to switch brands.
**2. Type the `LayoutContext` properly**
- File: `src/vibentec/component-map.tsx:3438`
- Replace `customer: any` and `cart: any` with `HttpTypes.StoreCustomer | null` and `HttpTypes.StoreCart | null`.
- Impact: Propagates type safety through the entire renderer pipeline, catching prop mismatches at compile time.
**3. Remove dead dependencies**
- `pg` and `@types/pg` — no direct DB access exists in this storefront.
- `@types/react-instantsearch-dom` — no instantsearch code exists.
- Run: `yarn remove pg @types/pg @types/react-instantsearch-dom`
- Impact: Cleaner dependency graph, faster installs, less confusion for new developers.
**4. Fix hardcoded `data-mode="light"`**
- File: `src/app/layout.tsx:11`
- If dark mode is planned: drive this from a cookie or `prefers-color-scheme`. If not: add a comment documenting the intentional lock to light mode.
**5. Delete commented-out V1 cart code**
- File: `src/lib/data/cart.ts:279318`
- The commented blocks are Medusa V1 patterns. They will never be un-commented as-is. Remove them to reduce noise and cognitive load.
---
### 3. Testing Strategy
Given zero existing tests and the RSC-heavy architecture, the recommended approach is **outside-in, starting at the data boundaries**.
**Step 1 — Integration tests for the data layer** (`src/lib/data/`)
These are pure server functions with no React involved — the easiest place to start. Use **Vitest** with a real (or Docker-composed) Medusa backend in test mode.
```
Priority order: cart.ts → customer.ts → products.ts → regions.ts
```
Start with `cart.ts` — it has the most mutations, the most business logic, and already has a confirmed `await` bug. Writing a test for `setAddresses` would have caught that immediately.
**Step 2 — Component tests for the Vibentec renderer** (`src/vibentec/`)
The `DynamicLayoutRenderer` and `componentMap` are the highest-risk custom code with no safety net. Use **React Testing Library** with `@testing-library/react` (RSC-compatible via Next.js jest transform).
Write snapshot tests that pass a known JSON fixture through the full renderer pipeline. This creates a regression guard before any design JSON changes.
```typescript
// Example fixture test shape
it("renders a Header with a Banner child from JSON", () => {
const nodes = [
{ Header: { children: [{ Banner: { config: { variant: "nav" } } }] } },
]
const { container } = render(
<DynamicLayoutRenderer nodes={nodes} context={mockContext} />
)
expect(container).toMatchSnapshot()
})
```
**Step 3 — E2E tests for critical user journeys** using **Playwright**
Two journeys that must never break:
1. `Browse Store → Product Detail → Add to Cart → Checkout → Order Confirmed`
2. `Login → Account Dashboard → View Order History`
**Step 4 — CI enforcement**
The `.github/` directory currently only contains an issue template. Add a GitHub Actions workflow that runs on every PR:
```yaml
- yarn lint # re-enable ignoreDuringBuilds: false first
- tsc --noEmit # re-enable ignoreBuildErrors: false first
- vitest run # data layer integration tests
- playwright test # critical path E2E
```
No PR merges to `main` without all four passing.
