            FAQs

            Q: How does this template differ from create-react-app?
            A: Unlike create-react-app, this template is specifically designed for AI-assisted development. It provides a more opinionated structure with clear conventions that AI tools can follow consistently. It also uses Vite instead of webpack for faster build times and includes the latest React features out of the box.

            Q: Can I use this template for production applications?
            A: Absolutely. While it’s optimized for AI-assisted development, the architectural patterns and tech stack are production-ready.

            Q: How do I add global state management to this template?
            A: The template is designed to work with various state management solutions. For global state, I’d recommend Zustand due to its simplicity and good TypeScript support. You can install it with npm install zustand and create stores in a src/stores directory, following the patterns in .cursor/rules/3-react-patterns.md.

            Q: How can I customize the AI guidance rules?
            A: The AI guidance rules are located in the .cursor/rules/ directory. You can modify existing rules or add new ones to fit your project’s specific needs. Just make sure to keep the rules clear and consistent so AI tools can understand them.
