 # Getting Started
 
-Note, the best way to understand how to use ReactOnRails is to study a few simple examples. You can do a quick demo setup, either on your existing app or on a new Rails app.
+> **💡 Looking for the fastest way to get started?** Try our **[15-Minute Quick Start Guide](./quick-start/README.md)** instead.
 
-This documentation assumes the usage of ReactOnRails with Shakapacker 7. For installation on Shakapacker 6, check [tips for usage with Shakapacker 6](./additional-details/tips-for-usage-with-sp6.md) first.
+## Choose Your Starting Point
 
-1. Do the quick [tutorial](./guides/tutorial.md).
-2. Add React on Rails to an existing Rails app per [the instructions](./guides/installation-into-an-existing-rails-app.md).
-3. Look at [spec/dummy](https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails/tree/master/spec/dummy), a simple, no DB example.
-4. Look at [github.com/shakacode/react-webpack-rails-tutorial](https://github.com/shakacode/react-webpack-rails-tutorial); it's a full-featured example live at [reactrails.com](https://reactrails.com).

+## Auto-Bundling (includes Auto-Registration)
 
-  Exposing your component in this way allows you to reference the component from a Rails view. You can expose as many components as you like, but their names must be unique. See below for the details of how you expose your components via the React on Rails Webpack configuration. You may call `ReactOnRails.register` many times.
+React on Rails supports **Auto-Bundling**, which automatically creates the webpack bundle _and_ registers your React components. This means you don’t have to manually configure packs or call `ReactOnRails.register(...)`.
 
-- `@some_props` can be either a hash or JSON string. This is an optional argument assuming you do not need to pass any options (if you want to pass options, such as `prerender: true`, but you do not want to pass any properties, simply pass an empty hash `{}`). This will make the data available in your component:

+import HelloWorld from '../components/HelloWorld';
+
+ReactOnRails.register({ HelloWorld });
+```

+# React on Rails Documentation Improvement Plan
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+After analyzing the current documentation structure and content, I've identified several opportunities to improve clarity, reduce complexity, and enhance visual appeal. This plan focuses on making the documentation more accessible to new users while maintaining comprehensive coverage for advanced users.
+
+## Key Issues Identified
+
+### 1. Navigation and Structure Issues
+
+- **Overwhelming entry points**: Multiple starting points (README, getting-started.md, tutorial.md) with overlapping content
+- **Deep nesting**: Important information buried in subdirectories
+- **Fragmented information**: Related concepts scattered across multiple files
+- **Outdated content**: Some docs reference deprecated patterns or old versions
+
+### 2. Content Clarity Issues
+
+- **Technical jargon**: Heavy use of technical terms without clear definitions
+- **Missing context**: Assumptions about user knowledge level
+- **Verbose explanations**: Long paragraphs that could be simplified
+- **Inconsistent formatting**: Different styles across documents
+
+### 3. Visual Appeal Issues
+
+- **Wall of text**: Large blocks of text without visual breaks
+- **Missing visual aids**: Few diagrams, screenshots, or illustrations
+- **Poor code formatting**: Inconsistent code block styling
+- **Lack of callouts**: Important information not visually emphasized
+
+## Improvement Recommendations
+
+### 1. Restructure Documentation Hierarchy
+
+**Current Structure:**
+
+```
+docs/
+├── getting-started.md (202 lines)
+├── guides/ (20 files)
+├── api/ (3 files)
+├── additional-details/ (8 files)
+├── javascript/ (17 files)
+├── rails/ (5 files)
+└── ...
+```
+
+**Proposed Structure:**
+
+```
+docs/
+├── README.md (landing page with clear paths)
+├── quick-start/
+│   ├── installation.md
+│   └── first-component.md
+├── guides/
+│   ├── fundamentals/
+│   ├── advanced/
+│   └── deployment/
+├── api-reference/
+└── examples/
+```

+# 15-Minute Quick Start Guide
+
+> **Get your first React component running in Rails in 15 minutes**
+
+This guide will have you rendering React components in your Rails app as quickly as possible. We'll skip the theory for now and focus on getting something working.
+
+## ✅ Prerequisites
+
+Before starting, make sure you have:
+
+- **Rails 7+** application
+- **Ruby 3.0+**
+- **Node.js 18+** and **Yarn**
+- **Basic familiarity** with React and Rails
+
+> 💡 **Don't have a Rails app?** Run `rails new my_react_app` first.
+
+## 📦 Step 2: Install React on Rails (3 minutes)
+
+Add the React on Rails gem and run its installer:
+
+```bash
+# Add the gem
+bundle add react_on_rails --strict
+
+# Commit your changes (required for generator)
+git add . && git commit -m "Add react_on_rails gem"
+
+# Run the installer
+bin/rails generate react_on_rails:install
+```
+
+Take a look at the files created by the generator.
+
+- jsx files created
+- Shakapacker install
+- React component files in `client/`
+- A sample controller and view
+- Webpack configuration
+
+## 🎯 Step 3: Start the Development Server (1 minute)
+
+Start both Rails and the Webpack dev server:
+
+```bash
+./bin/dev
+```
+
+This starts both:
+
+- Rails server on `http://localhost:3000`
+- Webpack dev server for hot reloading
+
+## 🎨 Step 4: See Your Component (2 minutes)
+
+Open your browser and navigate to:
+
+```
+http://localhost:3000/hello_world
+```
+
+You should see a page with a React component saying "Hello World"!
+
+🎉 **Congratulations!** You have React running in your Rails app.
+
+## 🔧 Step 5: Edit Your Component (2 minutes)
+
+Let's make a quick change to see hot reloading in action:
+
+1. Open `app/javascript/src/HelloWorld/ror_components/HelloWorld.client.jsx`
+2. Change the text from "Hello World" to "Hello from React!"
+3. Save the file
+4. Watch your browser automatically refresh
+
+## 🚀 Step 6: Add Components to Existing Views (5 minutes)
+
+Now let's add a React component to one of your existing Rails views:
+
+### Create a New Component
+
+```bash
+# Create a new component directory
+mkdir -p app/javacript/src/SimpleCounter/components
+
+# Create the component file
+touch app/javascript/src/SimpleCounter/ror_components/SimpleCounter.jsx
+```
+
+Add this content to `SimpleCounter.jsx`:
+
+```jsx
+import React, { useState } from 'react';
+
+const SimpleCounter = ({ initialCount = 0 }) => {
+  const [count, setCount] = useState(initialCount);
+
+  return (
+    <div style={{ padding: '20px', border: '1px solid #ccc' }}>
+      <h3>React Counter</h3>
+      <p>
+        Current count: <strong>{count}</strong>
+      </p>
+      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Increment</button>
+      <button onClick={() => setCount(count - 1)}>Decrement</button>
+      <button onClick={() => setCount(0)}>Reset</button>
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+
+export default SimpleCounter;
+```
+
+### Use It in a Rails View (Auto-Bundling)
+
+With React on Rails auto-bundling, you don't need manual registration! Just add this to any Rails view (like `app/views/application/index.html.erb`):
+
+```erb
+<h1>My Rails App</h1>
+
+<p>Here's a React component embedded in this Rails view:</p>
+
+<%= react_component("SimpleCounter", { initialCount: 5 }, { auto_load_bundle: true }) %>
+```
+
+Note, your layout needs to include this in the <head>:
+
+```erb
+    <%= stylesheet_pack_tag %>
+    <%= javascript_pack_tag %>
+```
+
+That's it! React on Rails will automatically:
+
+- ✅ Find your component in any directory named `ror_components` (configurable)
+- ✅ Create the webpack bundle
+- ✅ Register the component
+- ✅ Include the JavaScript on the page
+
+Restart your server and visit the page - you should see your interactive counter!
+
+## ✅ What You've Accomplished
+
+In 15 minutes, you've:
+
+- ✅ Installed and configured React on Rails
+- ✅ Seen server-side rendering in action
+- ✅ Experienced hot module reloading
+- ✅ Created and used a custom React component with auto-bundling
+- ✅ Passed props from Rails to React
+- ✅ Used zero-configuration automatic bundling (no manual pack setup!)

+# Troubleshooting Guide
+
+Having issues with React on Rails? This guide covers the most common problems and their solutions.
+
+## 🔍 Quick Diagnosis
+
+### Is your issue with...?
+
+| Problem Area         | Quick Check                                 | Go to Section                               |
+| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
+| **Installation**     | Generator fails or components don't appear  | [Installation Issues](#installation-issues) |
+| **Compilation**      | Webpack errors, build failures              | [Build Issues](#build-issues)               |
+| **Runtime**          | Components not rendering, JavaScript errors | [Runtime Issues](#runtime-issues)           |
+| **Server Rendering** | SSR not working, hydration mismatches       | [SSR Issues](#server-side-rendering-issues) |
+| **Performance**      | Slow builds, large bundles, memory issues   | [Performance Issues](#performance-issues)   |
+
+## 🚨 Installation Issues
+
+### "Generator fails with uncommitted changes"
+
+**Error:** `You have uncommitted changes. Please commit or stash them.`
+
+**Solution:**
+
+```bash
+git add .
+git commit -m "Add react_on_rails gem"
+bin/rails generate react_on_rails:install
+```
+
+**Why:** The generator needs clean git state to show you exactly what it changed.
+
+### "Node/Yarn not found"
+
+**Error:** `Yarn executable was not detected` or `Node.js not found`
+
+**Solution:**
+
+- Install Node.js 20+ from [nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org)
+- Install Yarn: `npm install -g yarn`
+- Or use system package manager: `brew install node yarn`
+
+## 🔧 Build Issues
+
+### "Module not found: Can't resolve 'react-on-rails'"
+
+**Error in browser console or webpack output**
+
+**Solution:**
+
+```bash
+# Make sure the NPM package is installed
+yarn add react-on-rails
+
+# If using local development with yalc
+cd react_on_rails/
+yalc publish
+cd your_app/
+yalc add react-on-rails
+```
+
+### "Webpack compilation failed"
+
+**Check these common causes:**
+
+1. **Syntax errors** in your React components
+2. **Missing dependencies** in package.json
+3. **Incorrect imports** (check file paths and extensions)
+
+**Debug steps:**
+
+```bash
+# Run webpack directly to see detailed errors
+bin/webpack
+# Or in development mode
+bin/webpack --mode development
+```
+
+### "ExecJS::RuntimeUnavailable"
+
+**Error:** JavaScript runtime not available
+
+**Solution:**
+
+```bash
+# Add to your Gemfile
+gem 'execjs'
+gem 'mini_racer', platforms: :ruby
+
+# Or use Node.js runtime
+export EXECJS_RUNTIME=Node
+```
+
+## ⚡ Runtime Issues
+
+### "Component not rendering"
+
+**Symptoms:** Empty div or no output where component should be
+
+**Check list:**
+
+1. **Component registered?**
+
+   ```javascript
+   import ReactOnRails from 'react-on-rails';
+   import MyComponent from './MyComponent';
+   ReactOnRails.register({ MyComponent });
+   ```
+
+2. **Bundle included in view?**
+
+   ```erb
+   <%= javascript_pack_tag 'my-bundle' %>
+   <%= react_component('MyComponent') %>
+   ```
+
+3. **Component exported correctly?**
+   ```javascript
+   // Use default export
+   export default MyComponent;
+   // Not named export for registration
+   ```
+
+### "ReferenceError: window is not defined"
+
+**Error during server-side rendering**
+
+**Solution:** Check your component for browser-only code:
+
+```javascript
+// ❌ Bad - will break SSR
+const width = window.innerWidth;
+
+// ✅ Good - check if window exists
+const width = typeof window !== 'undefined' ? window.innerWidth : 1200;
+
+// ✅ Better - use useEffect hook
+useEffect(() => {
+  const width = window.innerWidth;
+  // Use width here
+}, []);
+```
+
+### "Props not updating"
+
+**Symptoms:** Component shows initial props but doesn't update
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+1. **Caching** - Rails fragment caching may cache React components
+2. **Turbo/Turbolinks** - Page navigation isn't re-initializing React
+3. **Development mode** - Hot reloading not working
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+```erb
+<!-- Disable caching for development -->
+<% unless Rails.env.development? %>
+  <% cache do %>
+    <%= react_component('MyComponent', props: @props) %>
+  <% end %>
+<% else %>
+  <%= react_component('MyComponent', props: @props) %>
+<% end %>
+```
+
+## 🖥️ Server-Side Rendering Issues
+
+### "Server rendering not working"
+
+**Check:**
+
+1. **Prerender enabled?**
+
+   ```erb
+   <%= react_component('MyComponent', props: @props, prerender: true) %>
+   ```
+
+2. **JavaScript runtime available?**
+
+   ```bash
+   # Add to Gemfile if missing
+   gem 'mini_racer'
+   ```
+
+3. **No browser-only code in component?** (see "window is not defined" above)
+
+### "Hydration mismatch warnings"
+
+**Symptoms:** React warnings about server/client content differences
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+- Different props between server and client render
+- Browser-only code affecting initial render
+- Date/time differences between server and client
+
+**Debug:**
+
+```javascript
+// Add this to see what props are being used
+console.log('Server props:', props);
+console.log('Client render time:', new Date());
+```
+
+## 🐌 Performance Issues
+
+### "Slow webpack builds"
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. **Enable caching:**
+
+   ```yaml
+   # config/shakapacker.yml
+   development:
+     cache_manifest: true
+   ```
+
+2. **Use webpack-dev-server:**
+
+   ```bash
+   ./bin/dev  # Uses Procfile.dev with webpack-dev-server
+   ```
+
+3. **Check for large dependencies:**
+   ```bash
+   yarn why package-name
+   webpack-bundle-analyzer public/packs/manifest.json
+   ```
+
+### "Large bundle sizes"
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. **Code splitting:**
+
+   ```javascript
+   // Use dynamic imports
+   const MyComponent = lazy(() => import('./MyComponent'));
+   ```
+
+2. **Check bundle analysis:**
+
+   ```bash
+   ANALYZE=true bin/webpack
+   ```
+
+3. **Remove unused dependencies:**
+   ```bash
+   yarn remove unused-package
+   ```
+
+## 🛠️ Advanced Debugging
+
+### Enable verbose logging
+
+```ruby
+# config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb
+ReactOnRails.configure do |config|
+  config.logging_on_server = true
+  config.server_render_method = 'NodeJS' # for better error messages
+end
+```
+
+### Debug webpack configuration
+
+```bash
+# See the final webpack config
+bin/webpack --config-dump
+```
+
+### Check component registration
+
+```javascript
+// In browser console
+console.log(ReactOnRails.getComponents());
+```
+

 ## Project Objective
 
 To provide a high-performance framework for integrating Ruby on Rails with React, especially regarding React Server-Side Rendering for better SEO and improved performance.
 
-## Features and Why React on Rails?
-
-Given that `shakacode/shakapacker` gem already provides basic React integration, why would you use "React on Rails"?
-
-1. **Modern ESM-only package** with optimized tree-shaking for smaller bundle sizes and better performance.
-1. **Advanced loading strategies** with `sync`, `async`, and `defer` options for optimal performance based on your needs.
-1. **Automatic configuration** of what bundles are added to the page based on what React components are on the page. This results in faster browser loading time via smaller bundle sizes.
-1. **Keep up with the latest changes** in different versions of React. React 18+ is fully supported with enhanced React Server Components.
-1. **Easy prop passing** directly from your Rails view to your React components rather than having your Rails view load and then make a separate request to your API.
-   Tight integration with [shakapacker](https://github.com/shakacode/shakapacker).

+# 🤖 AI Agent Instructions: React on Rails Setup
+
+_Super concise, copy-paste instructions for AI agents to set up React on Rails in common scenarios._
+
+## 🔍 **Before Starting: Check Current Versions**
+
+```bash
+# Get latest available versions (recommended approach)
+gem search react_on_rails --remote
+```
+
+Install and update gem and npm package using strict option.
+
+---
+
+## 🆕 Scenario 1: New Rails App with React on Rails
+
+```bash
+# Create new Rails app
+rails new myapp --skip-javascript --database=postgresql
+cd myapp
+
+# Use latest version
+bundle add react_on_rails --version 16.0.1 --strict
+
+bin/rails generate react_on_rails:install
+
+# Accept change to bin/dev
+
+# Start development servers
+bin/dev
+```
+
+**✅ Success Check:** Visit `http://localhost:3000/hello_world` → Should see "Hello World" from React
+
+---
+
+## 🔄 Scenario 2: Add React on Rails to Existing Rails App
+
+```bash
+cd /path/to/existing/app
+# Use latest version
+bundle add react_on_rails --version 16.0.1 --strict
+
+bin/rails generate react_on_rails:install
+
+# Accept change to bin/dev
+
+# Start development servers
+bin/dev
+# Navigate to existing Rails app root
+
+# Start development
+bin/dev
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🛠️ Common Troubleshooting Commands
+
+- Always run `bin/dev` to test setup, and check browser console for any JavaScript errors.\*
+- `bin/dev kill` stops other conflicting processes
+- `bin/rake react_on_rails:doctor` for helpful information

 Exposing your component in this way allows you to reference the component from a Rails view. You can expose as many components as you like, but their names must be unique. See below for the details of how you expose your components via the React on Rails Webpack configuration. You may call `ReactOnRails.register` many times.
