import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client';
import { BrowserRouter } from 'react-router-dom';
import App from './App';
import './styles/globals.css';

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')!).render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <BrowserRouter>
      <App />
    </BrowserRouter>
  </React.StrictMode>
);
```

### src/App.tsx

```tsx
import { Routes, Route } from 'react-router-dom';
import { AnimatePresence } from 'framer-motion';
import { AppShell } from './components/layout/AppShell';
import { Dashboard } from './pages/Dashboard';
import { Settings } from './pages/Settings';

        </Routes>
      </AnimatePresence>
    </AppShell>
  );
}
```

## Animation Patterns

### Framer Motion Variants

```tsx
// Fade in on mount
export const fadeIn = {
  initial: { opacity: 0 },
  animate: { opacity: 1 },
  exit: { opacity: 0 },
  transition: { duration: 0.2 },
};

// Slide up on mount
export const slideUp = {
  initial: { opacity: 0, y: 20 },
  animate: { opacity: 1, y: 0 },
  exit: { opacity: 0, y: 20 },
  transition: { duration: 0.3, ease: 'easeOut' },
};

// Scale on hover (for buttons/cards)
export const scaleOnHover = {
  whileHover: { scale: 1.02 },
  whileTap: { scale: 0.98 },
  transition: { type: 'spring', stiffness: 400, damping: 17 },
};

// Stagger children
export const staggerContainer = {
  hidden: { opacity: 0 },
  visible: {
    opacity: 1,
    transition: {
      staggerChildren: 0.05,
      delayChildren: 0.1,
    },
  },
};

export const staggerItem = {
  hidden: { opacity: 0, y: 10 },
  visible: {
    opacity: 1,
    y: 0,
    transition: { duration: 0.2, ease: 'easeOut' },
  },
};
```

### Page Transition Wrapper

```tsx
import { motion } from 'framer-motion';
import { ReactNode } from 'react';

interface PageTransitionProps {
  children: ReactNode;
}

export function PageTransition({ children }: PageTransitionProps) {
  return (
    <motion.div
      initial={{ opacity: 0, y: 20 }}
      animate={{ opacity: 1, y: 0 }}
      exit={{ opacity: 0, y: -20 }}
      transition={{ duration: 0.3, ease: 'easeOut' }}
    >
      {children}
    </motion.div>
  );
}
```

## Glass Effect Patterns

### Glass Card

```tsx
<div className="glass-card p-6">
  <h2 className="text-lg font-semibold text-text-primary">Card Title</h2>
  <p className="text-text-secondary mt-2">Card content goes here.</p>
</div>
```

### Glass Panel (Sidebar)

```tsx
<aside className="glass-panel w-64 h-screen p-4">
  <nav className="space-y-2">
    {/* Navigation items */}
  </nav>
</aside>
```

### Glass Modal Overlay

```tsx
<motion.div
  className="fixed inset-0 glass-overlay flex items-center justify-center z-50"
  initial={{ opacity: 0 }}
  animate={{ opacity: 1 }}
  exit={{ opacity: 0 }}
>
  <motion.div
    className="glass-card p-6 max-w-md w-full mx-4"
    initial={{ scale: 0.95, opacity: 0 }}
    animate={{ scale: 1, opacity: 1 }}
    exit={{ scale: 0.95, opacity: 0 }}
  >
    {/* Modal content */}
  </motion.div>
</motion.div>
```

## Typography

| Element | Classes |
|---------|---------|
| Page title | `text-2xl font-semibold text-text-primary` |
| Section title | `text-lg font-semibold text-text-primary` |
| Card title | `text-base font-medium text-text-primary` |
| Body text | `text-sm text-text-secondary` |
| Caption | `text-xs text-text-muted` |
| Label | `text-sm font-medium text-text-secondary` |

## Color Usage

| Use Case | Color | Class |
|----------|-------|-------|
| Primary action | Brand purple | `bg-brand text-white` |
| Primary hover | Brand hover | `hover:bg-brand-hover` |
| Page background | Neutral bg1 | `bg-neutral-bg1` |
| Card background | Neutral bg2 | `bg-neutral-bg2` |
| Elevated surface | Neutral bg3 | `bg-neutral-bg3` |
| Input background | Neutral bg2 | `bg-neutral-bg2` |
| Input focus | Neutral bg3 | `focus:bg-neutral-bg3` |
| Border default | Border default | `border-border` |
| Border subtle | Border subtle | `border-border-subtle` |
| Success | Status success | `text-status-success` |
| Warning | Status warning | `text-status-warning` |
| Error | Status error | `text-status-error` |
