# Task Completion Checklist

When completing any development task in this project, follow these steps:

## 1. Code Quality Checks
- [ ] **TypeScript Validation**: Run `npx tsc --noEmit` to check TypeScript types
- [ ] **Build Test**: Run `npm run build` to ensure the project builds successfully
- [ ] **Development Server**: Test with `npm run dev` to ensure functionality works locally

## 2. Rust/Native Code (if applicable)
- [ ] **Rust Check**: Run `cargo check` in the church-core directory
- [ ] **Native Build**: Run `npm run build:native` to ensure NAPI bindings compile
- [ ] **Cargo Clippy**: Run `cargo clippy` for Rust linting (if available)

## 3. Frontend Testing
- [ ] **Manual Testing**: Test all affected functionality in the browser
- [ ] **Cross-browser Check**: Test in different browsers if UI changes were made
- [ ] **Mobile Responsiveness**: Check mobile layout if UI changes were made

## 4. API Integration
- [ ] **API Endpoints**: Test any modified API routes (`/api/*`)
- [ ] **External API**: Verify integration with `https://api.rockvilletollandsda.church/api/`
- [ ] **Error Handling**: Ensure proper error responses and user feedback

## 5. Documentation
- [ ] **Code Comments**: Add comments for complex logic
- [ ] **README Updates**: Update documentation if new features or requirements
- [ ] **Memory Updates**: Update project memory files if architecture changes

## 6. Git Best Practices
- [ ] **Commit Messages**: Use clear, descriptive commit messages
- [ ] **Branch Management**: Work on feature branches when appropriate
- [ ] **Clean History**: Squash commits if multiple small fixes

## 7. Performance & Security
- [ ] **Bundle Size**: Check if changes affect build size significantly
- [ ] **Security**: Ensure no sensitive data is exposed
- [ ] **Caching**: Verify API caching headers are appropriate

## Common Issues to Watch For
- **NAPI Bindings**: Ensure native code compiles on target platforms
- **External API Dependency**: Handle cases where external API is unavailable
- **Image Uploads**: Validate file sizes and types properly
- **Form Validation**: Both client-side and server-side validation
- **Recurring Events**: Special attention to date/time handling

## Pre-deployment Checklist
- [ ] All TypeScript errors resolved
- [ ] Production build succeeds
- [ ] All features tested manually
- [ ] External dependencies verified
- [ ] Environment variables documented (if new ones added)
