## 🎨 Mobile UI Design Patterns

### Touch Optimization
- **Minimum touch target**: 44x44px (iOS/Android standard)
- **Large buttons**: 48-56px height for primary actions
- **Swipe gestures**: Pull-to-refresh in App Store
- **Haptic feedback**: Light/medium/success/error on all interactions

### Visual Hierarchy
- **Sticky headers**: Always visible with back button
- **Tab navigation**: Clear separation between Editor/Output/Publish
- **Gradient backgrounds**: Purple/pink for Studio, cyan/blue for Store
- **Status indicators**: Visual badges for compile success/error

### Mobile-Specific Features
- **Safe area insets**: Respects notches and rounded corners
- **Keyboard awareness**: Text inputs don't overlap keyboard
- **Portrait optimized**: Single-column layouts
- **Bottom spacing**: Extra padding for bottom nav (pb-20)

## 🎓 Developer Notes

### Haptic Patterns Used

```typescript
haptics.light();     // Navigation, tab switches
haptics.medium();    // Install, compile, publish
haptics.success();   // Operation completed
haptics.error();     // Operation failed
```

### Color Themes

**AeThex Studio**:
- Primary: Purple (#9333EA) to Pink (#EC4899)
- Accent: Purple-500/30 borders
- Background: Black with purple/pink gradients

**App Store**:
- Primary: Cyan (#06B6D4) to Blue (#3B82F6)
- Accent: Cyan-500/30 borders
- Background: Black with cyan/blue gradients

### Performance Optimizations

- **Lazy loading**: Components render only when visible
- **Memoization**: Stats and filters use `useMemo`
- **Debounced search**: Real-time filtering without lag
- **Optimized re-renders**: State updates batched
