Monorepo Boundaries (REQUIRED)

• ALWAYS keep application code inside apps/*.
• ALWAYS keep reusable code inside packages/*.
• NEVER import app code from another app (e.g. apps/web importing from apps/mobile). Extract shared logic into a package.

Package Design (REQUIRED)

• ALWAYS design packages as platform-agnostic when possible.
• ALWAYS expose stable entrypoints from each package (avoid deep imports across packages).
• NEVER duplicate shared UI or utilities across apps; add/extend a package instead.

Cross-Platform UI Rules (REQUIRED)

• ALWAYS prefer shared UI in packages/ui.
• ALWAYS keep platform-specific implementations behind explicit entrypoints (e.g. *.native.tsx, *.web.tsx) when needed.
• NEVER assume DOM APIs exist in mobile code.

Dependency & Ownership Rules

• ALWAYS keep dependencies as low as possible in packages.
• ALWAYS add dependencies at the narrowest scope that needs them (package/app package.json, not the root).
• NEVER add a dependency to the root unless it is truly repo-wide tooling.

Repo Structure Quick Reference

• apps/web: Next.js app
• apps/mobile: Expo app
• packages/ui: shared UI (Gluestack UI + shared components)
• turbo.json: task orchestration
• pnpm-workspace.yaml: workspace boundaries
