Documentation Principles

These docs are optimized for:

• AI builders (Lovable, V0, Claude Code)
• Focused context (load only what you need)
• Quick reference (checklists and examples)
• Consistency (standardized patterns across all components)

Each file is:

• Single-purpose - covers one concern thoroughly
• Self-contained - minimal cross-references
• Example-driven - shows good/bad patterns
• Checklist-equipped - actionable validation steps
