# ADR 0001: Adopt Next.js App Router and Client-Side Zero CLS Architecture

![Status: Accepted](https://img.shields.io/badge/status-accepted-brightgreen?style=flat-square)

- **Date**: 2026-09-05
- **Deciders**: Chief Technology Officer, Principal Software Architect, Lead Frontend Engineer
- **Status**: Accepted

---

## Context & Problem Statement

Our Markdown tooling platform requires sub-second page loads, global search engine optimization (SEO), and dependable ad monetization. Previous single-page apps suffered from cumulative layout shifts when injecting third-party ads, penalizing Google rankings and frustrating users.

## Considered Options

### Next.js App Router + Turbopack (Chosen)

**Advantages (Pros):**
- 👍 Sub-second static build prerendering
- 👍 Native TypeScript & Tailwind CSS v4 support
- 👍 Built-in font and metadata optimization

**Disadvantages (Cons):**
- 👎 Requires disciplined separation of client vs server components

### Client-Only Vite SPA

**Advantages (Pros):**
- 👍 Simple configuration
- 👍 Zero server requirements

**Disadvantages (Cons):**
- 👎 Poorer initial SEO indexability
- 👎 Harder to generate dynamic sitemaps and rich Schema.org snippets

## Decision Outcome

Chosen option: **Migrate to Next.js App Router with static route prerendering and fixed-dimension ad containers to guarantee CLS = 0.00 while running all computation 100% client-side in the browser.**

## Consequences

### Positive Impact

- ✅ 100% static prerendering produces instantaneous TTFB.
- ✅ Fixed height ad slots achieve a measured Google Core Web Vitals CLS score of 0.00.
- ✅ Zero user markdown data leaves client machines, maximizing security compliance.

### Trade-offs & Risks

- ⚠️ Must ensure third-party script integrations are safely wrapped to avoid hydration mismatches.

### Neutral Changes

- ℹ️ Developers must use standard GitHub Flavored Markdown specifications.
