+
+## Code Style Guidelines
+
+- Use TypeScript with proper type annotations
+- Follow React functional component patterns with hooks
+- Use ES modules (import/export) not CommonJS
+- Use Prettier for formatting (auto-formatted on commit)
+- Follow existing naming conventions:
+  - camelCase for variables and functions
+  - PascalCase for component names and types
+  - kebab-case for file names
+- Use async/await for asynchronous operations
+- Implement proper error handling with try/catch blocks
+- Use Tailwind CSS for styling in the client
+- Keep components small and focused on a single responsibility
+
+## Project Organization
+
+The project is organized as a monorepo with workspaces:
+
+- `client/`: React frontend with Vite, TypeScript and Tailwind
+- `server/`: Express backend with TypeScript
+- `bin/`: CLI scripts
