error/Error.js as explained in some pages it returns a page not found error with some good UI and call of actions when user wants to go back or go home
loaders different loaders to display when something's loading, ie some pre-rendered cards loader when jobs/ companies is are being fetched
1. /AuthLoader.js displays some pre-rendered components ie header, hero and template when user data are being fetched when user visits the page... this is to avoid sudden change of some components when user is loaded and authenticated
2. /ButtonLoader.js displays spinner in the button when user is has clicked some buttons that requires fetching to alert user that its fetching. it is alse used for loading more jobs and companies and/or can be used anywhere where a spinner is required. it accepts props
```
 {
     bg, // if bg="light" it means the spinner is in light background and changes the class which eventually changes the color of the spinner. default a spinner works on colored background/it is white
 }
```
1. /CardLoader.js this prerenders cards when components that requires cards are loading. these components are Job card, company card. it accepts a prop
```
 {
     stars, // true or false it means displays stars loading or not the reason is the company card does not have stars and hence stars can be false while the job card has stars and hence will pass stars={true} as a prop
 }
```
1. /CpmpaniesLoader.js in the landing page at the companies section this loader is user to prerender when fetching companies
2. /Details.js renders when job details are loading and is used in /pages/jobs/[id].js
3. /HeroLoader.js prerenders hero component for profile(both companies and user profiles) pages and job details page when details are fetching
4. /ProfileLoader.js renders when user details are fetching and is used in main profile part of the profile(more explanations in /components/profile_template part)
newsletter/NewsLetter.js displays subscription form for unauthenticated users
template/Template.js is used for many pages to display main section of the page and also contains primary header and is responsible for the layout (ie in the page where jobs part and newsletter/related jobs part is displayed )
page_template/PageTemplate.js is the component that uses /components/template/Template.js component but also has its own hero fro the pages where hero doesn't have any content i.e about, contact etc
register contains two components to separate registering user/jobseeker and registering a company
1. /JobSeeker.js responsible for registering normal user/Job seeker
2. /Company.js responsible for registering a company
profile_template is used to showcase user/companies profiles/ jobs/ applied jobs/ saved jobs/ edit profile items. The profile page has three main sections -> hero, navigation and main-content and uses tabs to switch between different contents/pages. these tabs looks like this http://localhost:3000/page_name?tab=tab_name the value of tab ie tab_name is what returns the required contents.... more explanations below.
1. /Perofile_Template.js is the entry component in the whole profile ecosystem. it takes in /components/profile_template/hero/Hero to display a hero for some details and /components/profile_template/template/Template to display the main profile details and takes two props ie
```
    {
        details, // profile details of either user or company/ both share some similar components
        page // page name ie page can be user (do indicate the profile is of user), auth-user (to indicate the profile is of authenticated user/ user who is currently logged in) or company (to indicate that the profile is of a company)
    }
```
1. /hero/Hero.js displays some user/company details on the hero, takes in details and page as props
2. /template/Template.js takes in details and page as props and also its where we check if the profile is of authenticated user or company(in order to allow them to edit profile if its theirs as well as view their own private items like applied jobs of saved jobs). Two components are imported in this component which is Aside (navigation section of the profile) and Details (main content of the website), both taking details and page, isUser (true if profile is of the current logged in user) and isCompany(true if the profile is of the current logged in company) as props
3. /aside/Aside.js as explained above this shows profile navigation and consist of route like tab=profile- for profile details page, tab=edit-profile available if isUser or isCompany is true to allow users to edit their profiles, tab=jobs available for companies only and works only when page="company", /dashboard this ia available if isCompany is true or if isUser is true and user is an admin to take them to their dashboards which is another apps, tab=saved-jobs and tab=applied-jobs when isUser is true and works only when page="user/auth-user". the aside does not display at all when isUser and isCompany are false and it is a user profile and only an admin can view user profile
4. /Details.js this works similar to aside where displays different contents deoending on the route clicked in the aside, the authentication status and the page ie, if isUser and page is user/auth-user and the tab=edit-profile it will display edit profile contents while if isUser is false it will just display the profile details of the user. so it takes in several components ie /components/profile_template/edit-profile/EditProfile.js, /components/profile_template/edit-profile/Profile.js, /components/profile_template/edit-profile/Jobs.js, /components/profile_template/edit-profile/AppliedJobs.js and /components/profile_template/edit-profile/SavedJobs.js components.
5. /Section.js this is the main template used by details components, takes in heading and children
6. /profile/Profile.js this displays profile information for any user/company, it takes in details props.
7. /jobs/Jobs.js displays jobs added by a company. only works when tab=jobs and page=company
8. /jobs/AppliedJobs.js displays jobs that user has applied and their status and only work when tab=applied-jobs and isUser is true otherwise returns /components/profile_template/profile/Profile.js component
9. /jobs/SavedJobs.js displays jobs user has saved and works similar to the component above
10. /edit-profile/EditProfile.js this works on tab=edit-profile and either isUser or isCompany is true otherwise returns /components/profile_template/profile/Profile.js component. also it takes in details, isUser and isCompany props. it has two components, /components/profile_template/edit-profile/user/EditUser.js and /components/profile_template/edit-profile/company/EditCompany.js. the reason to separate these stuffs is user and company updates their profile to different destinations/ api routes just like we did in register. so if isUser is true then displays EditUser component and the other way around. NB: both isUser and isCompany can never be true at the same time, its either one of them true or both false.
  1. /user/EditUser.js edits user and takes in /edit-profile/Upload.js to allow user to upload dp/profile photos, /edit-profile/CV.js to allow user to upload their CVs, /settings/Settings.js to allow users to update their core info like email, username and password while allowing users to update their basic infos inside the same component.
  2. /company/EditCompany.js workis exactly like /user/EditUser except doesnt have upload CV section and in the settings doesnt have username settings ie companies dont have usernames
  3. Upload.js allows uploading dp/logos
  4. /user/CV.js allows uploading CVs
  5. /settings/Settings.js allow user to update their core info like username, emails and password. updating each of these info reguires user to add his/her current login info to ensure its the user who is doing them changes even if user may be authenticated. this is because we may use unexpiring sessions/tokens and anyone can use users computer so just to make sure. it takes in Username, Email and Password components.
    1. /Username.js, Email.js, Password.js as explained above these contains forms to update the infos and the UI part is the are arranged as accordions where user have to click the title to actually see the form so they require /Accordion.js just to do that.
    2. /Accordion.js is used to toggle on and off the settings forms this is good to reduce the number of components visible at the same time in the settings part as having three forms at the same time actually can distract user so they must choose what they want to change, click them and boom the form appears before them

job random jobs components used accross the app

/Job.js a job card to display some job details and is used in /components/jobs_template/Jobs.js which is used in both /pages/index.js and /pages/jobs.js. It accepts props ie

    {
        job: {
            id,
            title,
            company,
            created_at,
            close_date,
            close_time,
            job_type,
            location,
            reviews,
        }
    }

/JobDetails.js display job details in the /pages/jobs/[id].js page. it accepts props ie

{
    job: {
        id, job_type, location, company, email, attachment, descriptions
    }
}

/RelatedJobs.js in /pages/jobs/[id].js it displays three jobs which relates to the job with id [id]

company/Company is a company card mapped in /pages/companies.js and accepts props ie

{
    id, logo, name, jobs // number of jobs added by the individual company
}

layout/Layout.js it is the main layout for all pages expect /pages/login.js, /pages/register.js and /pages/forgot_password.js. it is used to display /components/header/Header.js at the top, /components/footer/Footer.js at the bottom and whatever component props is passed in as children. it is imported in /pages/_app.js and its where user data will be fetched hence /components/loaders/AuthLoader.js will pre-render while fetchimg user data. This is to avoid fetching user data to the pages where this layout isn't users ie login.js
header
1. /Header.js is the main header of the app and is imported in /components/layout/Layout.js. it displays the main navigation as well as some user data when user is authenticated
2. /Profile.js displays saome basic user data and some navigation to authenticated pages, shows when user is authenticated
3. /Notifications.js display user notifications and only showa when user is authenticated
home contains components that are used in landing page only
1. /hero/Hero.js contains introductory heading and paragraph together with search bars which redirects to jobs page.
2. /companies/Companies.js dispays a shortlist of companies in the landing page
filter_hero/Hero.js this is used for both /pages/companies.js and /pages/jobs to display different search criteria. it has search inputs as well as mapping category filters /components/categories/Category.js. it accepts accept props which is search and setSearch. search is a state declared in the individual page such as jobs page and setSearch is also a method declared in usestate to update search state. When user type in search bars it updates the state in this same component.

The reason to opt usestate instead of using global state is because these same components are used to update different states ie search state in jobs is different from that in companies page and they are used to call different data in the api although they share the same types of data ie search passed as props is declared as

    {
        keyword: "",
        location: "",
        categories: [],
    }

categories used to display different filters in /components/filter_hero/Hero.js component
1. /Category.js this component is mapped in /components/filter_hero/Hero.js and takes in the props ie search, setSearch (...refer to /components/filter_hero/Hero.js component), category which has the following data
```
    {
        name, //category name
        sub_categories: [], // array of subcategories
        id, //category id
    }
```
these data are extracted from /components/filter_hero/Hero.js component where in that component categories are fetched from the api, the sub_category array is mapped in this component
1. /SubCategory.js is mapped from /components/categories/Category and is used to display subcategories of the main category. it receives props such as
```
    {
        sub: {
            id, //sub_category id
            name, //sub_category name
        },
        setSearch, // prop drilled from the main page
        search, // prop drilled from main page
        category: {
            id, //parent category id
        }
    }
```
In this component user is allowed to select/unselect any subcategory and the clicked subcategory is then added/removed in the search state, the main reason we have setSearch. search prop is used to update UI when user selects and unselect a sub_category by using custom checkbox(svg)
jobs_template/Jobs.js this is used in index.js and jobs.js to display jobs and other items. it accepts props which are

{
    search,
    setSearch, // refer to `/components/filter_hero/Hero.js`
    heading, //to render different headings as per page
    page // to render different items for different pages ie from jobs page the value passed is page="jobs"
}

it uses /components/template.Template.js as the main template and pass childrens and heading as props. refer to /components/template.Template.js it maps /components/job/Job.js when jobs are available from the main page it also uses /components/filter_criteria to display different criterias in the /pages/jobs.js page

filter_criteria used to display different filter criterias in /pages/jobs.js and /pages/companies.js pages
1. /FilterCriteria.js this accepts search and setSearch props. setsearch is used to remove item/criteria from the state and search to display criteria in the browser. it displays keyword and location criteria while maps categories to display category names. in each category it maps the /components/filter_criteria/FilterItem.js to displays subcategories of each category. if none exists or have no value in search state it doesnt display nothing
2. /FilterItem.js it is mapped in the above component to display subcategories of each category with a function to remove the subcategory. if removed it update search state using setsearch and if all the subcategories are removed from a category it removes the category completely from the search state
footer

CSS

Most of the components are wrapped in the folders and contains their own css files. These files have .module.sass extension. the global css files are placed in /styles folder and are

1. `/global.sass`, this is the global css file and is imported in `/pages/_app.js`. contains all the global styles together with some components which starts with `_filename.sass`
2. `_filename.sass` these are components in sass ecosystem and can be imported in any sass file in order to use their styles/ varialbles or functions
