Founder Capstone — Starter

Read BRIEF.md before anything else. The way you respond to the brief is most of the mark. Then read PRESENTATION-GUIDE.md for the Loom.

Setup

npm install
npm run dev

Type-check anytime with npm run typecheck (strict mode, no any).

What's here

• src/data/types.ts — the domain model (a data contract you don't control).
• src/data/items.ts — mock items with deliberate real-world messiness.
• src/App.tsx — an empty shell. Delete it and build the product.

What you deliver (all required — see BRIEF.md for detail)

1. The working app, deployed to a live public URL (link in this README).
2. FOUNDER-RESPONSE.md — your professional pushback to Thabo.
3. DECISION-LOG.md — min. 8 real decisions with tradeoffs.
4. AI-USAGE.md — min. 3 AI moments, incl. one where AI was wrong and you caught it.
5. A Loom walkthrough (see PRESENTATION-GUIDE.md).

Rules

• TypeScript strict. No any / as any / @ts-ignore to dodge a type.
• Runs from a clean clone. Test in a fresh folder before submitting.
• Deployed to a live public URL (Vercel/Netlify/GitHub Pages/Cloudflare) with the link in this README. Test the live site before submitting.
• Commit as you go. Public repo.

Templates for the three markdown deliverables are in this repo as FOUNDER-RESPONSE.md, DECISION-LOG.md, and AI-USAGE.md — fill them in.
