## 📂 Architecture & Structure

The project uses Next.js Route Groups without a `src/` directory to maintain a clean root layout:

- `app/(app)/` — Application routes (Layout, Home)
- `public/` — Static assets (images, icons, fonts)

## 🎯 Current Status

_In Progress_ — Application scaffold initialized with Next.js 16, React 19, Tailwind CSS v4, and TypeScript. Database integration, authentication, and DevOps infrastructure will be implemented in subsequent phases.
