The list beside the map used its own cut-down card, so it showed less than the list view (no phase, age range, denomination, trend, local authority) and looked different. It now renders the list view's SchoolRow / SecondarySchoolRow, through one renderRow shared by the list view, the map pane and the phone's bottom sheet, which also gains Remove from compare. CompactSchoolItem and its styles are gone. The rows switched to their stacked layout on a max-width: 640px media query, which never fires in a ~430px pane on a desktop screen. It is now a container query on the list the row sits in (`results`, set on the list view, the map pane and the bottom sheet). 600px of list is a 632px screen less padding, so phones lay out as before. Clicking a row, outside its links and buttons, still picks its pin, and the selected row is outlined. The pane widens to 360–460px for the taller rows. The bottom sheet's close button was a 30px target; it is now 44px with the same 30px circle (MOBILE.md), and the phone journey checks it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
SchoolCompare frontend and CMS
Next.js App Router with React, TypeScript, CSS Modules, Chart.js, Leaflet and Payload CMS. It serves school search, comparisons, rankings, school/place detail pages and editorial content across England.
Start with the repository overview, architecture and development checks.

Do not introduce a shared app/layout.tsx: public pages and Payload have separate
root layouts. Keep root metadata files outside the route groups.
Data and state
Server pages fetch initial data directly from FASTAPI_URL. Browser fetches use
/api by default, forwarded by app/(frontend)/api/[...path]/route.ts.
FASTAPI_URL must include /api. See .env.example for CMS and API settings.
State uses React hooks/context, URL search parameters and localStorage for the comparison basket. SWR is not installed. Maps use dynamic Leaflet wrappers. Revalidation intervals are configured in fetch wrappers and pages; they vary by resource. Backend reloads do not automatically invalidate every Next.js cache.
Commands
npm ci
npm run typecheck
npm test -- --runInBand
npm run build
test:watch and test:coverage are also available. There is no lint script.
A running application needs the backend/data environment described in the
development guide.
After CMS field or editor changes, run npm run generate:importmap. Keep
payload-types.ts generated from the CMS schema rather than editing it by hand.
The build must work without a database connection; avoid module-scope CMS queries
and DB-backed generateStaticParams functions.
See publishing for CMS operations and deployment for staging and production promotion.
