| Level | Application Method |
|---|---|
| Starter | Static UI only (no API integration) |
| Dynamic | Full integration |
| Enterprise | Full integration + optimization |
| Problem (Scattered API Calls) | Solution (Centralized Client) |
|---|---|
| Duplicate error handling logic | Common error handler |
| Distributed auth token handling | Automatic token injection |
| Inconsistent response formats | Standardized response types |
| Multiple changes when endpoint changes | Single point of management |
| Difficult testing/mocking | Easy mock replacement |

Server state (API data) → React Query / SWR
Client state (UI state) → useState / useReducer
Global state (auth, etc.) → Context / Zustand
Form state → React Hook Form
Validate UI behavior with logs:
[UI] Login button clicked
[STATE] isLoading: true
[API] POST /api/auth/login
[RESPONSE] { token: "...", user: {...} }
[STATE] isLoading: false, isLoggedIn: true
[NAVIGATE] → /dashboard
[RESULT] ✅ Login successful
Build API client layer
Service Layer separation
Type consistency
Error code standardization
Global error handler
Form validation error handling

Phase 7: SEO/Security → Features are complete, now optimize and strengthen security
npx claudepluginhub popup-studio-ai/bkit-claude-code --plugin bkitImplements UIs with React/Next.js, Zustand, and React Query. Covers components, pages, API integration, state management, and skeleton loading states.
Guides frontend-to-backend API integration: typed clients (REST/tRPC/OpenAPI), auth refresh, error mapping, upload flows, SSE/WebSocket/polling, and CORS behavior.
Implements UI components and frontend architecture. Breaks down designs into component trees, manages state, integrates with backend APIs, ensures accessibility and responsive behavior.
