+
+## Quick Wins (This Week)
+
+### 1.1 Add MDX Support for Content Pages
+
+**Problem:** Editing content pages requires React boilerplate and components.
+**Solution:** Add MDX to write pages in markdown with optional React components.
+
+**Implementation:**
+
+```bash
+npm install @next/mdx @mdx-js/loader @mdx-js/react
+```
+
+**Create `mdx-components.tsx` in root:**
+
+```typescript
+import type { MDXComponents } from 'mdx/types'
+
+export function useMDXComponents(components: MDXComponents): MDXComponents {
+ return {
+ h1: ({ children }) =>
{children}
,
+ h2: ({ children }) => {children}
,
+ p: ({ children }) => {children}
,
+ a: ({ href, children }) => {children},
+ ...components,
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Update `next.config.mjs`:**
+
+```javascript
+import createMDX from '@next/mdx'
+
+const withMDX = createMDX({
+ extension: /\.mdx?$/,
+ options: {
+ remarkPlugins: [],
+ rehypePlugins: [],
+ },
+})
+
+export default withMDX({
+ pageExtensions: ['ts', 'tsx', 'js', 'jsx', 'md', 'mdx'],
+ // ... rest of config
+})
+```
+
+**Convert pages to MDX:**
+
+```bash
+# Example: app/aftercare/page.tsx → app/aftercare/page.mdx
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Write content in markdown (much faster)
+- ✅ Drop in React components when needed
+- ✅ No boilerplate for simple pages
+- ⏱️ **Time saved:** 5-10 minutes per content edit
+
+---
+
+### 1.2 Create Content Component Library
+
+**Problem:** Repeating the same UI patterns across pages.
+**Solution:** Pre-built, reusable content components.
+
+**Create `components/content/` directory:**
+
+```typescript
+// components/content/Section.tsx
+export function Section({
+ title,
+ children,
+ className = ""
+}: {
+ title?: string
+ children: React.ReactNode
+ className?: string
+}) {
+ return (
+
+ {title && {title}
}
+
+ {children}
+
+
+ )
+}
+
+// components/content/Hero.tsx
+export function Hero({
+ title,
+ subtitle,
+ backgroundImage,
+ cta
+}: HeroProps) {
+ return (
+
+
+
{title}
+ {subtitle &&
{subtitle}
}
+ {cta && (
+
+ )}
+
+
+
+ )
+}
+
+// components/content/Card.tsx
+export function Card({
+ title,
+ description,
+ image,
+ href
+}: CardProps) {
+ return (
+
+
+ {image && (
+

+ )}
+
+
+ {title}
+
+ {description && (
+
{description}
+ )}
+
+
+
+ )
+}
+
+// Export barrel
+// components/content/index.ts
+export { Section } from './Section'
+export { Hero } from './Hero'
+export { Card } from './Card'
+export { Grid } from './Grid'
+export { CallToAction } from './CallToAction'
+```
+
+**Usage in pages:**
+
+```tsx
+import { Hero, Section, Grid, Card } from '@/components/content'
+
+export default function ServicesPage() {
+ return (
+ <>
+
+
+
+
+
+ {/* More cards... */}
+
+
+ >
+ )
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Consistent UI across site
+- ✅ Less code duplication
+- ✅ Easier to maintain styles
+- ⏱️ **Time saved:** 15-20 minutes per page creation
+
+---
+
+### 1.3 Convert Pages to Server Components
+
+**Problem:** Unnecessary client-side JavaScript on static pages.
+**Solution:** Remove `"use client"` from pages that don't need interactivity.
+
+**Audit candidates:**
+
+```bash
+# Find all pages with "use client"
+grep -r "use client" app/ --include="page.tsx"
+```
+
+**Likely candidates for conversion:**
+
+- `app/page.tsx` (homepage) - Most sections can be server-rendered
+- `app/artists/page.tsx` (artist listing) - Just displays data
+- `app/aftercare/page.tsx` (static content)
+- `app/privacy/page.tsx` (static content)
+- `app/terms/page.tsx` (static content)
+
+**Before:**
+```typescript
+"use client"
+
+export default function ArtistsPage() {
+ const [artists, setArtists] = useState([])
+
+ useEffect(() => {
+ fetch('/api/artists')
+ .then(r => r.json())
+ .then(setArtists)
+ }, [])
+
+ return
+}
+```
+
+**After:**
+```typescript
+// No "use client" directive - this is a server component
+
+async function getArtists() {
+ const db = getDB()
+ return await db.artists.findMany({
+ where: { isActive: true },
+ include: { portfolioImages: { take: 6 } }
+ })
+}
+
+export default async function ArtistsPage() {
+ const artists = await getArtists()
+
+ return
+}
+```
+
+**For interactive parts, create client islands:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/artists/page.tsx (server component)
+export default async function ArtistsPage() {
+ const artists = await getArtists()
+
+ return (
+
+
Our Artists
+ {/* Client component for filtering only */}
+
+
+
+ )
+}
+
+// components/ArtistFilter.tsx (client component)
+"use client"
+
+export function ArtistFilter() {
+ const [filter, setFilter] = useState('')
+ // Only the filter is interactive, rest is server-rendered
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Faster initial page load (less JS to download)
+- ✅ Better SEO (fully rendered HTML)
+- ✅ Reduced hydration time
+- 📉 **Performance:** 30-50% less JavaScript per page
+
+---
+
+### 1.4 Add Loading & Error States
+
+**Problem:** No feedback during data fetching, poor error UX.
+**Solution:** Use Next.js 14's `loading.tsx` and `error.tsx` conventions.
+
+**Create loading states:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/artists/loading.tsx
+export default function Loading() {
+ return (
+
+
+ {[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6].map((i) => (
+
+ ))}
+
+
+ )
+}
+
+// app/artists/[id]/loading.tsx
+export default function Loading() {
+ return
+}
+```
+
+**Create error boundaries:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/artists/error.tsx
+"use client"
+
+export default function Error({
+ error,
+ reset,
+}: {
+ error: Error & { digest?: string }
+ reset: () => void
+}) {
+ return (
+
+
Something went wrong!
+
{error.message}
+
+
+ )
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Better user experience during loading
+- ✅ Graceful error handling
+- ✅ No need to manage loading state manually
+- ⏱️ **Time saved:** 5-10 minutes per page (no manual loading state)
+
+---
+
+## Developer Experience Improvements
+
+### 2.1 Improve Type Safety
+
+**Current issue:** Some areas lack proper TypeScript types.
+
+**Add Zod schemas for API responses:**
+
+```typescript
+// lib/schemas/artist.ts
+import { z } from 'zod'
+
+export const artistSchema = z.object({
+ id: z.string(),
+ name: z.string(),
+ slug: z.string(),
+ bio: z.string().nullable(),
+ specialties: z.array(z.string()),
+ instagramHandle: z.string().nullable(),
+ portfolioImages: z.array(z.object({
+ id: z.string(),
+ url: z.string(),
+ alt: z.string().nullable(),
+ tags: z.array(z.string()),
+ })),
+})
+
+export type Artist = z.infer
+
+// Use in API routes for validation
+export async function GET() {
+ const data = await db.artists.findMany()
+ const validated = z.array(artistSchema).parse(data) // Runtime validation
+ return Response.json(validated)
+}
+```
+
+**Generate types from database schema:**
+
+```bash
+npm install drizzle-kit
+```
+
+```typescript
+// scripts/generate-types.ts
+import { generateTypes } from 'drizzle-kit'
+
+generateTypes({
+ schema: './lib/db.ts',
+ out: './types/database.d.ts'
+})
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Catch errors at compile time
+- ✅ Better autocomplete in IDE
+- ✅ Runtime validation of API data
+- 🐛 **Fewer bugs** in production
+
+---
+
+### 2.2 Add Development Scripts
+
+**Create helper scripts for common tasks:**
+
+```json
+// package.json
+{
+ "scripts": {
+ "dev:all": "concurrently \"npm run dev\" \"npm run db:studio:local\"",
+ "dev:debug": "NODE_OPTIONS='--inspect' next dev",
+ "db:reset:local": "wrangler d1 execute united-tattoo --local --file=./sql/schema.sql && node scripts/seed-local.js",
+ "db:seed:local": "node scripts/seed-local.js",
+ "analyze": "ANALYZE=true npm run build",
+ "type-check:watch": "tsc --noEmit --watch",
+ "clean": "rm -rf .next .open-next node_modules/.cache",
+ "fresh": "npm run clean && npm install && npm run dev"
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Create seed script for local development:**
+
+```typescript
+// scripts/seed-local.ts
+import { getDB } from '@/lib/db'
+
+async function seed() {
+ const db = getDB()
+
+ // Create test user
+ await db.users.create({
+ data: {
+ email: 'test@example.com',
+ name: 'Test Artist',
+ role: 'ARTIST',
+ }
+ })
+
+ // Create test artist
+ await db.artists.create({
+ data: {
+ name: 'Test Artist',
+ slug: 'test-artist',
+ bio: 'Test bio',
+ specialties: ['Realism', 'Color'],
+ userId: '...',
+ }
+ })
+
+ console.log('✅ Database seeded!')
+}
+
+seed().catch(console.error)
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Faster development setup
+- ✅ Easy database reset/seeding
+- ✅ Better debugging capabilities
+- ⏱️ **Time saved:** 10-15 minutes daily on setup tasks
+
+---
+
+### 2.3 Improve Error Messages
+
+**Add better error handling in database layer:**
+
+```typescript
+// lib/db.ts
+export const db = {
+ artists: {
+ async findById(id: string) {
+ try {
+ const db = getDB()
+ const artist = await db.prepare(
+ 'SELECT * FROM artists WHERE id = ?'
+ ).bind(id).first()
+
+ if (!artist) {
+ throw new Error(`Artist not found: ${id}`)
+ }
+
+ return artist
+ } catch (error) {
+ // Add context to errors
+ throw new Error(
+ `Failed to fetch artist ${id}: ${error.message}`,
+ { cause: error }
+ )
+ }
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Add request logging:**
+
+```typescript
+// middleware.ts
+export function middleware(request: NextRequest) {
+ const start = Date.now()
+
+ console.log(`→ ${request.method} ${request.nextUrl.pathname}`)
+
+ const response = NextResponse.next()
+
+ response.headers.set('X-Response-Time', `${Date.now() - start}ms`)
+
+ console.log(
+ `← ${request.method} ${request.nextUrl.pathname} ` +
+ `(${Date.now() - start}ms)`
+ )
+
+ return response
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Easier debugging
+- ✅ Faster error resolution
+- ✅ Better production monitoring
+- 🐛 **Faster bug fixes**
+
+---
+
+### 2.4 Create Component Templates
+
+**Add templates for common patterns:**
+
+```bash
+# scripts/create-page.sh
+#!/bin/bash
+
+PAGE_NAME=$1
+ROUTE_PATH=$2
+
+mkdir -p "app/$ROUTE_PATH"
+
+cat > "app/$ROUTE_PATH/page.tsx" <
+ $PAGE_NAME
+ {/* Content here */}
+
+ )
+}
+EOF
+
+echo "✅ Created page: app/$ROUTE_PATH/page.tsx"
+```
+
+**Usage:**
+```bash
+npm run create:page "Services" "services"
+```
+
+**VSCode snippets:**
+
+```json
+// .vscode/snippets.code-snippets
+{
+ "Next.js Page": {
+ "prefix": "npage",
+ "body": [
+ "import { Metadata } from 'next'",
+ "",
+ "export const metadata: Metadata = {",
+ " title: '${1:Page Title} | United Tattoo',",
+ " description: '${2:Description}',",
+ "}",
+ "",
+ "export default async function ${1}Page() {",
+ " return (",
+ " ",
+ "
${1}
",
+ " $0",
+ " ",
+ " )",
+ "}"
+ ]
+ },
+ "API Route": {
+ "prefix": "napi",
+ "body": [
+ "import { NextRequest } from 'next/server'",
+ "import { getServerSession } from 'next-auth'",
+ "import { authOptions } from '@/lib/auth'",
+ "",
+ "export async function GET(request: NextRequest) {",
+ " const session = await getServerSession(authOptions)",
+ " ",
+ " if (!session) {",
+ " return Response.json({ error: 'Unauthorized' }, { status: 401 })",
+ " }",
+ " ",
+ " // Logic here",
+ " $0",
+ " ",
+ " return Response.json({ data: null })",
+ "}"
+ ]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Consistent code structure
+- ✅ Faster file creation
+- ✅ Less boilerplate typing
+- ⏱️ **Time saved:** 2-5 minutes per file
+
+---
+
+## Performance Optimizations
+
+### 3.1 Optimize Images
+
+**Current issue:** Some images not using Next.js Image component.
+
+**Replace `
` with ``:**
+
+```typescript
+// Before
+
+
+// After
+import Image from 'next/image'
+
+
+```
+
+**For portfolio images from R2:**
+
+```typescript
+// components/PortfolioImage.tsx
+import Image from 'next/image'
+
+export function PortfolioImage({ image }: { image: PortfolioImage }) {
+ return (
+
+ )
+}
+```
+
+**Generate blur placeholders:**
+
+```bash
+npm install plaiceholder
+```
+
+```typescript
+// lib/blur-image.ts
+import { getPlaiceholder } from 'plaiceholder'
+
+export async function getBlurDataURL(src: string) {
+ try {
+ const buffer = await fetch(src).then(r => r.arrayBuffer())
+ const { base64 } = await getPlaiceholder(Buffer.from(buffer))
+ return base64
+ } catch {
+ return undefined
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **30-50% smaller image sizes**
+- ✅ Automatic WebP/AVIF conversion
+- ✅ Responsive images
+- ✅ Better CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift)
+
+---
+
+### 3.2 Add Route-Level Caching
+
+**Add caching headers to static content:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/artists/page.tsx
+export const revalidate = 3600 // Revalidate every hour
+
+export default async function ArtistsPage() {
+ const artists = await getArtists()
+ return
+}
+
+// app/artists/[id]/page.tsx
+export const revalidate = 1800 // 30 minutes
+
+export async function generateStaticParams() {
+ const artists = await getArtists()
+ return artists.map(a => ({ id: a.slug }))
+}
+```
+
+**Add API route caching:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/api/artists/route.ts
+export async function GET() {
+ const artists = await db.artists.findMany()
+
+ return Response.json(artists, {
+ headers: {
+ 'Cache-Control': 'public, s-maxage=3600, stale-while-revalidate=7200',
+ }
+ })
+}
+```
+
+**Add Cloudflare KV caching for expensive operations:**
+
+```typescript
+// lib/cache.ts
+export async function cached(
+ key: string,
+ fn: () => Promise,
+ ttl: number = 3600
+): Promise {
+ const kv = getKVNamespace()
+
+ // Try cache first
+ const cached = await kv.get(key, 'json')
+ if (cached) return cached as T
+
+ // Execute and cache
+ const result = await fn()
+ await kv.put(key, JSON.stringify(result), { expirationTtl: ttl })
+ return result
+}
+
+// Usage
+const artists = await cached('artists:all', () => db.artists.findMany(), 3600)
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **50-90% faster repeat visits**
+- ✅ Reduced database load
+- ✅ Better scalability
+- 💰 **Lower hosting costs**
+
+---
+
+### 3.3 Optimize Fonts
+
+**Use next/font with local fonts:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/layout.tsx
+import { Inter, Playfair_Display } from 'next/font/google'
+
+const inter = Inter({
+ subsets: ['latin'],
+ variable: '--font-inter',
+ display: 'swap', // Prevent FOIT (Flash of Invisible Text)
+})
+
+const playfair = Playfair_Display({
+ subsets: ['latin'],
+ variable: '--font-playfair',
+ display: 'swap',
+})
+
+export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
+ return (
+
+ {children}
+
+ )
+}
+```
+
+**Update Tailwind config:**
+
+```javascript
+// tailwind.config.ts
+export default {
+ theme: {
+ extend: {
+ fontFamily: {
+ sans: ['var(--font-inter)', 'sans-serif'],
+ serif: ['var(--font-playfair)', 'serif'],
+ },
+ },
+ },
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **No layout shift from font loading**
+- ✅ Automatic font subsetting
+- ✅ Preloading and optimization
+- ⚡ **Faster perceived load time**
+
+---
+
+### 3.4 Code Splitting & Lazy Loading
+
+**Lazy load heavy components:**
+
+```typescript
+// Before - BookingForm loaded immediately
+import { BookingForm } from '@/components/BookingForm'
+
+export default function BookPage() {
+ return
+}
+
+// After - BookingForm loaded on demand
+import dynamic from 'next/dynamic'
+
+const BookingForm = dynamic(
+ () => import('@/components/BookingForm'),
+ {
+ loading: () => ,
+ ssr: false // Client-only if needed
+ }
+)
+
+export default function BookPage() {
+ return
+}
+```
+
+**Lazy load admin dashboard components:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/admin/page.tsx
+import dynamic from 'next/dynamic'
+
+const AnalyticsDashboard = dynamic(() => import('@/components/admin/AnalyticsDashboard'))
+const PortfolioManager = dynamic(() => import('@/components/admin/PortfolioManager'))
+const CalendarManager = dynamic(() => import('@/components/admin/CalendarManager'))
+
+export default function AdminPage() {
+ return (
+
+ )
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **40-60% smaller initial bundle**
+- ✅ Faster time to interactive
+- ✅ Better mobile performance
+- ⚡ **Lighthouse score: +10-20 points**
+
+---
+
+### 3.5 Optimize Third-Party Scripts
+
+**Use next/script for external scripts:**
+
+```typescript
+// app/layout.tsx
+import Script from 'next/script'
+
+export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
+ return (
+
+
+ {children}
+
+ {/* Analytics - load after page interactive */}
+
+
+ {/* Non-critical - load lazily */}
+
+
+
+ )
+}
+```
+
+**Defer non-essential features:**
+
+```typescript
+// components/ChatWidget.tsx
+"use client"
+
+import { useEffect, useState } from 'react'
+
+export function ChatWidget() {
+ const [loaded, setLoaded] = useState(false)
+
+ useEffect(() => {
+ // Load chat widget after 5 seconds or user interaction
+ const timer = setTimeout(() => setLoaded(true), 5000)
+
+ const loadOnInteraction = () => {
+ setLoaded(true)
+ clearTimeout(timer)
+ }
+
+ window.addEventListener('scroll', loadOnInteraction, { once: true })
+ window.addEventListener('click', loadOnInteraction, { once: true })
+
+ return () => clearTimeout(timer)
+ }, [])
+
+ if (!loaded) return null
+
+ return {/* Widget here */}
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **Faster initial page load**
+- ✅ Better Core Web Vitals
+- ✅ Non-blocking script loading
+- ⚡ **Improved FCP and TTI**
+
+---
+
+### 3.6 Database Query Optimization
+
+**Add indexes to frequently queried columns:**
+
+```sql
+-- sql/migrations/YYYYMMDD_0001_add_indexes.sql
+
+-- Speed up artist lookups by slug
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_artists_slug ON artists(slug);
+
+-- Speed up portfolio queries
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_portfolio_artist_id ON portfolio_images(artist_id);
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_portfolio_sort ON portfolio_images(artist_id, sort_order);
+
+-- Speed up appointment queries
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_appointments_artist_date ON appointments(artist_id, appointment_date);
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_appointments_status ON appointments(status);
+
+-- Speed up user lookups
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_users_email ON users(email);
+```
+
+**Optimize queries with JOINs:**
+
+```typescript
+// Before - Multiple queries (N+1 problem)
+const artists = await db.artists.findMany()
+for (const artist of artists) {
+ artist.images = await db.portfolioImages.findMany({
+ where: { artistId: artist.id }
+ })
+}
+
+// After - Single query with JOIN
+const artists = await db.prepare(`
+ SELECT
+ a.*,
+ json_group_array(
+ json_object(
+ 'id', pi.id,
+ 'url', pi.url,
+ 'alt', pi.alt
+ )
+ ) as images
+ FROM artists a
+ LEFT JOIN portfolio_images pi ON pi.artist_id = a.id
+ GROUP BY a.id
+`).all()
+```
+
+**Add prepared statement caching:**
+
+```typescript
+// lib/db.ts
+const statementCache = new Map()
+
+export function getCachedStatement(sql: string) {
+ if (!statementCache.has(sql)) {
+ const db = getDB()
+ statementCache.set(sql, db.prepare(sql))
+ }
+ return statementCache.get(sql)
+}
+
+// Usage
+const stmt = getCachedStatement('SELECT * FROM artists WHERE slug = ?')
+const artist = await stmt.bind(slug).first()
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **50-80% faster queries**
+- ✅ Reduced database load
+- ✅ Better scalability
+- ⚡ **Faster API responses**
+
+---
+
+### 3.7 Optimize CSS
+
+**Use Tailwind's JIT mode (already enabled but optimize):**
+
+```javascript
+// tailwind.config.ts
+export default {
+ content: [
+ './app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}',
+ './components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}',
+ // Don't include node_modules unless needed
+ ],
+ theme: {
+ extend: {
+ // Only include custom values you actually use
+ },
+ },
+ plugins: [],
+}
+```
+
+**Extract critical CSS for above-the-fold:**
+
+```bash
+npm install critical
+```
+
+```typescript
+// next.config.mjs
+export default {
+ experimental: {
+ optimizeCss: true, // Enable CSS optimization
+ },
+}
+```
+
+**Remove unused ShadCN components:**
+
+```bash
+# Audit which components are actually used
+grep -r "from '@/components/ui'" app/ components/ --no-filename | \
+ sed 's/.*from//' | sort | uniq
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- 📉 **20-40% smaller CSS bundle**
+- ✅ Faster first paint
+- ✅ Better mobile performance
+- ⚡ **Improved FCP**
+
+---
+
+## Code Quality & Maintainability
+
+### 4.1 Consistent File Structure
+
+**Establish clear conventions:**
+
