+This rule describes how to write Stimulus controllers.
+
+- **Use declarative actions, not imperative event listeners**
+  - Instead of assigning a Stimulus target and binding it to an event listener in the initializer, always write Controllers + ERB views declaratively by using Stimulus actions in ERB to call methods in the Stimulus JS controller.  Below are good vs. bad code.
+
+  BAD code:
+
+  ```js
+  // BAD!!!! DO NOT DO THIS!!
+  // Imperative - controller does all the work
+  export default class extends Controller {
+    static targets = ["button", "content"]
+
+    connect() {
+      this.buttonTarget.addEventListener("click", this.toggle.bind(this))
+    }
+
+    toggle() {
+      this.contentTarget.classList.toggle("hidden")
+      this.buttonTarget.textContent = this.contentTarget.classList.contains("hidden") ? "Show" : "Hide"
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+  GOOD code:
+
+  ```erb
+  <!-- Declarative - HTML declares what happens -->
+
+  <div data-controller="toggle">
+    <button data-action="click->toggle#toggle" data-toggle-target="button">Show</button>
+    <div data-toggle-target="content" class="hidden">Hello World!</div>
+  </div>
+  ```
+
+  ```js
+  // Declarative - controller just responds
+  export default class extends Controller {
+    static targets = ["button", "content"]
+
+    toggle() {
+      this.contentTarget.classList.toggle("hidden")
+      this.buttonTarget.textContent = this.contentTarget.classList.contains("hidden") ? "Show" : "Hide"
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+- **Keep Stimulus controllers lightweight and simple**
+  - Always aim for less than 7 controller targets. Any more is a sign of too much complexity.
+  - Use private methods and expose a clear public API
+
+- **Keep Stimulus controllers focused on what they do best**
+  - Domain logic does NOT belong in a Stimulus controller
+  - Stimulus controllers should aim for a single responsibility, or a group of highly related responsibilities
+  - Make good use of Stimulus's callbacks, actions, targets, values, and classes
+
+- **Component controllers should not be used outside the component**
+  - If a Stimulus controller is in the app/components directory, it should only be used in its component view. It should not be used anywhere in app/views.

+Use this rule to learn how to write tests for the Maybe codebase.
+
+Due to the open-source nature of this project, we have chosen Minitest + Fixtures for testing to maximize familiarity and predictability.
+
+- **General testing rules**
+  - Always use Minitest and fixtures for testing, NEVER rspec or factories
+  - Keep fixtures to a minimum.  Most models should have 2-3 fixtures maximum that represent the "base cases" for that model.  "Edge cases" should be created on the fly, within the context of the test which it is needed.
+  - For tests that require a large number of fixture records to be created, use Rails helpers to help create the records needed for the test, then inline the creation. For example, [entries_test_helper.rb](mdc:test/support/entries_test_helper.rb) provides helpers to easily do this.
+
+- **Write minimal, effective tests**
+  - Use system tests sparingly as they increase the time to complete the test suite
+  - Only write tests for critical and important code paths
+  - Write tests as you go, when required
+  - Take a practical approach to testing.  Tests are effective when their presence _significantly increases confidence in the codebase_.
+
+  Below are examples of necessary vs. unnecessary tests:
+
+  ```rb
+  # GOOD!!
+  # Necessary test - in this case, we're testing critical domain business logic
+  test "syncs balances" do
+    Holding::Syncer.any_instance.expects(:sync_holdings).returns([]).once
+
+    @account.expects(:start_date).returns(2.days.ago.to_date)
+
+    Balance::ForwardCalculator.any_instance.expects(:calculate).returns(
+      [
+        Balance.new(date: 1.day.ago.to_date, balance: 1000, cash_balance: 1000, currency: "USD"),
+        Balance.new(date: Date.current, balance: 1000, cash_balance: 1000, currency: "USD")
+      ]
+    )
+
+    assert_difference "@account.balances.count", 2 do
+      Balance::Syncer.new(@account, strategy: :forward).sync_balances
+    end
+  end
+
+  # BAD!!
+  # Unnecessary test - in this case, this is simply testing ActiveRecord's functionality
+  test "saves balance" do 
+    balance_record = Balance.new(balance: 100, currency: "USD")
+
+    assert balance_record.save
+  end
+  ```
+
+- **Test boundaries correctly**
+  - Distinguish between commands and query methods. Test output of query methods; test that commands were called with the correct params. See an example below:
+
+  ```rb
+  class ExampleClass
+    def do_something
+      result = 2 + 2
+
+      CustomEventProcessor.process_result(result)
+
+      result
+    end
+  end
+
+  class ExampleClass < ActiveSupport::TestCase
+    test "boundaries are tested correctly" do 
+      result = ExampleClass.new.do_something
+
+      # GOOD - we're only testing that the command was received, not internal implementation details
+      # The actual tests for CustomEventProcessor belong in a different test suite!
+      CustomEventProcessor.expects(:process_result).with(4).once
+
+      # GOOD - we're testing the implementation of ExampleClass inside its own test suite
+      assert_equal 4, result
+    end
+  end
+  ```
+
+  - Never test the implementation details of one class in another classes test suite
+
+- **Stubs and mocks**
+  - Use `mocha` gem 
+  - Always prefer `OpenStruct` when creating mock instances, or in complex cases, a mock class
+  - Only mock what's necessary. If you're not testing return values, don't mock a return value.

+Use this rule to learn how to write ERB views, partials, and Stimulus controllers should be incorporated into them.
+
+- **Component vs. Partial Decision Making**
+  - **Use ViewComponents when:**
+    - Element has complex logic or styling patterns
+    - Element will be reused across multiple views/contexts
+    - Element needs structured styling with variants/sizes (like buttons, badges)
+    - Element requires interactive behavior or Stimulus controllers
+    - Element has configurable slots or complex APIs
+    - Element needs accessibility features or ARIA support
+  
+  - **Use Partials when:**
+    - Element is primarily static HTML with minimal logic
+    - Element is used in only one or few specific contexts
+    - Element is simple template content (like CTAs, static sections)
+    - Element doesn't need variants, sizes, or complex configuration
+    - Element is more about content organization than reusable functionality
+
+- **Prefer components over partials**
+  - If there is a component available for the use case in app/components, use it
+  - If there is no component, look for a partial
+  - If there is no partial, decide between component or partial based on the criteria above
+
+- **Examples of Component vs. Partial Usage**
+  ```erb
+  <%# Component: Complex, reusable with variants and interactivity %>
+  <%= render DialogComponent.new(variant: :drawer) do |dialog| %>
+    <% dialog.with_header(title: "Account Settings") %>
+    <% dialog.with_body { "Dialog content here" } %>
+  <% end %>
+  
+  <%# Component: Interactive with complex styling options %>
+  <%= render ButtonComponent.new(text: "Save Changes", variant: "primary", confirm: "Are you sure?") %>
+  
+  <%# Component: Reusable with variants %>
+  <%= render FilledIconComponent.new(icon: "credit-card", variant: :surface) %>
+  
+  <%# Partial: Static template content %>
+  <%= render "shared/logo" %>
+  
+  <%# Partial: Simple, context-specific content with basic styling %>
+  <%= render "shared/trend_change", trend: @account.trend, comparison_label: "vs last month" %>
+  
+  <%# Partial: Simple divider/utility %>
+  <%= render "shared/ruler", classes: "my-4" %>
+  
+  <%# Partial: Simple form utility %>
+  <%= render "shared/form_errors", model: @account %>
+  ```
+
+- **Keep domain logic out of the views**
+   ```erb
+    <%# BAD!!! %>
+
+    <%# This belongs in the component file, not the template file! %>
+    <% button_classes = { class: "bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-600" } %>
+
+    <%= tag.button class: button_classes do %>
+      Save Account
+    <% end %>
+
+    <%# GOOD! %>
+
+    <%= tag.button class: computed_button_classes do %>
+      Save Account
+    <% end %>
+    ```
+
+- **Stimulus Integration in Views**
+  - Always use the **declarative approach** when integrating Stimulus controllers
+  - The ERB template should declare what happens, the Stimulus controller should respond
+  - Refer to [stimulus_conventions.mdc](mdc:.cursor/rules/stimulus_conventions.mdc) to learn how to incorporate them into 
+
+  GOOD Stimulus controller integration into views:
+
+  ```erb
+  <!-- Declarative - HTML declares what happens -->
+
+  <div data-controller="toggle">
+    <button data-action="click->toggle#toggle" data-toggle-target="button">Show</button>
+    <div data-toggle-target="content" class="hidden">Hello World!</div>
+  </div>
+  ```
+
+- **Stimulus Controller Placement Guidelines**
+  - **Component controllers** (in `app/components/`) should only be used within their component templates
+  - **Global controllers** (in `app/javascript/controllers/`) can be used across any view
+  - Pass data from Rails to Stimulus using `data-*-value` attributes, not inline JavaScript
+  - Use Stimulus targets to reference DOM elements, not manual `getElementById` calls
+
+- **Naming Conventions**
+  - **Components**: Use `ComponentName` suffix (e.g., `ButtonComponent`, `DialogComponent`, `FilledIconComponent`)
+  - **Partials**: Use underscore prefix (e.g., `_trend_change.html.erb`, `_form_errors.html.erb`, `_sync_indicator.html.erb`)
+  - **Shared partials**: Place in `app/views/shared/` directory for reusable content
+  - **Context-specific partials**: Place in relevant controller view directory (e.g., `accounts/_account_sidebar_tabs.html.erb`)
