Current Strengths 💪

Project Structure

• Clean, modular organization with separate directories for components, pages, i18n, etc.
• Follows Vue 3 best practices with Composition API
• Good separation of concerns between layout components and pages

Internationalization

• Type-safe i18n system
• Lazy loading of language files
• Persistent language preferences
• Clean language switcher UI with Shadcn components

Theming

• Dark/light theme implementation with smooth transitions
• Consistent theme colors using Tailwind's color system

Planned Improvements 🎯

1. Testing Implementation

• Set up Vitest for unit testing
• Set up Cypress for E2E testing
• Add @testing-library/vue for component testing
• Write tests for critical components
• Set up CI/CD pipeline for automated testing

2. Error Handling

• Implement global error boundary

app.config.errorHandler = (err, instance, info) => {
  // Log error to service
  console.error(err)
}

• Add error states for async operations
• Implement error logging service
• Add retry mechanisms for failed API calls

3. Performance Monitoring

• Implement Web Vitals monitoring

import { onCLS, onFID, onLCP } from 'web-vitals'

function sendToAnalytics({ name, delta, id }) {
  // Send metrics to analytics
}

onCLS(sendToAnalytics)
onFID(sendToAnalytics)
onLCP(sendToAnalytics)

• Set up performance budgets
• Implement automated performance testing
• Add bundle size monitoring

4. Documentation

• Set up Storybook for component documentation
• Implement TypeDoc for API documentation
• Create comprehensive README
• Add contribution guidelines
• Document component usage examples
• Add inline code documentation

5. SEO Optimization

• Implement meta tags management
• Add OpenGraph tags
• Generate sitemap
• Implement structured data
• Add robots.txt configuration

6. Accessibility

• Add missing ARIA labels
• Implement keyboard navigation
• Add skip links
• Ensure proper color contrast
• Add screen reader announcements
• Test with screen readers

7. Type Safety Enhancements

• Add comprehensive TypeScript interfaces for store state
• Implement strict prop types for all components
• Add runtime type checking for API responses
• Enhance type safety in route definitions

8. Security
