name: react-component description: Create React components following Atomic Design and project patterns. Use when asked to create a new component, build UI, or implement a feature with React.

React Component Creation

When to Use

• Creating new components
• Building UI features
• Implementing designs
• Adding new pages or views

Process

1. Determine Component Level (Atomic Design)

   • Atom: Basic building blocks (Button, Input, Label)
   • Molecule: Simple combinations (FormField, SearchBar)
   • Organism: Complex UI sections (Header, Card, Modal)

2. Create Directory Structure

   Copysrc/components/{level}/{component-name}/
   ├── index.tsx          # Component implementation
   ├── index.test.tsx     # Unit tests
   └── index.stories.tsx  # Storybook stories
   

3. Implement Component following template

4. Add Tests using Testing Library

5. Create Storybook Story for documentation

File Location

Template

See template.tsx for the base component structure.

Checklist

• TypeScript props interface defined
• JSDoc comments added
• Named export (not default)
• Default values for optional props
• Props sorted alphabetically
• Accessible (semantic HTML, ARIA if needed)
• Unit tests written
• Storybook story created
