---

## Integration with Backend

### tRPC Procedures

The frontend calls these backend procedures:

**Chat:**
```typescript
POST /api/trpc/chat.send
{
  prompt: string;
  enableSearch: boolean;
  enableThinking: boolean;
  history: Array<{ role: string; content: string }>;
}

Response:
{
  response: string;
  reasoning: string;
  model: string;
  tokensUsed: number;
}
```

**Image Generation:**
```typescript
POST /api/trpc/imagine.generate
{
  prompt: string;
}

Response:
{
  imageUrl: string;
  prompt: string;
}
```

**Search:**
```typescript
POST /api/trpc/search.online
{
  query: string;
  maxResults: number;
}

Response:
{
  results: Array<{
    title: string;
    url: string;
    snippet: string;
  }>;
}
```

---

## File Upload & OCR

### Supported Formats

- **Images**: JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP
- **Documents**: PDF, TXT, DOC, DOCX

### OCR Implementation

Uses **Tesseract.js** for client-side text extraction:

```typescript
// Example (not yet implemented in Chat.tsx)
import Tesseract from 'tesseract.js';

const result = await Tesseract.recognize(imageFile);
const extractedText = result.data.text;
```

To enable OCR:

1. Install Tesseract.js: `pnpm add tesseract.js`
2. Add OCR handler in Chat.tsx
3. Send extracted text with message

---

## Customization

### Change Colors

Edit `client/src/index.css` in the `.dark` section:

```css
.dark {
  --primary: oklch(0.623 0.214 259.815);      /* Violet */
  --secondary: oklch(0.55 0.15 264);          /* Indigo */
  --accent: oklch(0.65 0.18 280);             /* Light indigo */
  --background: oklch(0.07 0.002 0);          /* Deep black */
  --foreground: oklch(0.95 0.002 0);          /* Near white */
}
```

### Change Fonts

Edit `client/index.html`:

```html
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=YOUR_FONT&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
```

Then update `client/src/index.css`:

```css
body {
  font-family: 'YOUR_FONT', sans-serif;
}
```

### Add New Pages

1. Create component in `client/src/pages/NewPage.tsx`
2. Add route in `client/src/App.tsx`:

```typescript
<Route path={"/new-page"} component={NewPage} />
```

---

## Performance Optimization

### Code Splitting

Routes are automatically code-split by React Router.

### Image Optimization

- Generated images are cached in browser
- Use lazy loading for image gallery

### Caching

- tRPC client caches responses automatically
- Clear cache on logout or mode switch

---

## Accessibility

- **Keyboard navigation**: Tab through buttons and inputs
- **Focus rings**: Visible focus indicators on all interactive elements
- **Color contrast**: WCAG AA compliant (dark theme)
- **ARIA labels**: Added to interactive elements
- **Semantic HTML**: Proper heading hierarchy

---

## Browser Support

- Chrome/Edge 90+
- Firefox 88+
- Safari 14+
- Mobile browsers (iOS Safari, Chrome Mobile)

---

## Troubleshooting

### API Connection Failed

**Error**: "Failed to connect to backend"

**Solution:**
1. Verify `REACT_APP_API_URL` is correct
2. Check backend is running
3. Verify CORS is enabled on backend
4. Check browser console for network errors

### Styling Issues

**Error**: "Colors look wrong" or "Layout is broken"

**Solution:**
1. Clear browser cache
2. Rebuild CSS: `pnpm run build`
3. Check theme is set to "dark" in App.tsx
4. Verify index.css is imported in main.tsx

### Image Upload Not Working

**Error**: "File upload fails"

**Solution:**
1. Check file size (should be <10MB)
2. Verify file format is supported
3. Check browser console for errors
4. Ensure backend file upload endpoint is working

### Slow Performance

**Error**: "App feels sluggish"

**Solution:**
1. Check network tab for slow API calls
2. Reduce chat history size (archive old messages)
3. Optimize images before upload
4. Check for memory leaks in browser DevTools
