52+ The codebase follows a modular component structure:
53+ - ** State Management ** : Centralized in ` App.tsx ` using React hooks
54+ - ** Component Separation ** : Each UI piece is a separate component with clear responsibilities
55+ - ** Type Safety ** : Shared types in ` components/types.ts ` for consistency
56+ - ** Prop Interface ** : Components receive specific props rather than accessing global state
