1. **Layout Components**: containers, grids, sections
2. **Content Components**: cards, articles, media
3. **Interactive Components**: buttons, forms, navigation
4. **Utility Components**: spacing, typography, colors
```
```javascript
// Theme Management System
class ThemeManager {
constructor() {
this.currentTheme = this.getStoredTheme() || this.getSystemTheme();
this.applyTheme(this.currentTheme);
this.initializeToggle();
}
getSystemTheme() {
return window.matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches ? 'dark' : 'light';
}

```
```markdown
1. **Primary Navigation**: 5-7 main sections maximum
2. **Theme Toggle**: Always accessible in header/navigation

4. **Call-to-Action Placement**: Above fold, section ends, footer
5. **Supporting Content**: Testimonials, features, contact info
```

# Review project specification and task list
cat ai/memory-bank/site-setup.md
cat ai/memory-bank/tasks/*-tasklist.md
# Understand target audience and business goals
