}) {
  return (
    <html lang="en">

        <CmsProvider>
          {children}
        </CmsProvider>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}
// app/[[...slug]]/page.tsx
import { CmsRouteHandler } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
export default function DynamicPage() {
  return (
    <CmsRouteHandler>
      <div>This content shows for non-CMS routes</div>
    </CmsRouteHandler>
  );
}Pages Router (Next.js 12+)
// pages/_app.tsx
import { CmsProvider } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
import type { AppProps } from 'next/app';
export default function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
  return (
    <CmsProvider>
      <Component {...pageProps} />

    </CmsRouteHandler>
  );
}3. Advanced Configuration
// lib/cms-config.ts
import { CmsConfig } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
export const cmsConfig: CmsConfig = {
  // Sanity Configuration
  projectId: process.env.SANITY_PROJECT_ID!,
  dataset: process.env.SANITY_DATASET!,
  apiToken: process.env.SANITY_API_TOKEN,
  apiVersion: process.env.SANITY_API_VERSION || '2023-05-03',
  
  // Routing Configuration
  routePath: process.env.CMS_ROUTE_PATH || '/cms/',
  
  // Performance Configuration
  cache: {
    enabled: process.env.ENABLE_CACHE === 'true',
    ttl: parseInt(process.env.CACHE_TTL || '300'),
    staleTime: 300000, // 5 minutes
    strategy: 'stale-while-revalidate'
  },
  
  // SEO Configuration
  seo: {
    siteName: 'My Awesome Site',
    defaultDescription: 'Welcome to our content hub',

import { CmsProvider } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
import { cmsConfig } from '../lib/cms-config';
export default function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
  return (
    <CmsProvider config={cmsConfig}>
      <Component {...pageProps} />
    </CmsProvider>
  );
}๐จ Template System
Using Default Templates
The package includes responsive, accessible templates:
import { DefaultTemplate, SimpleDefaultTemplate } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Automatic template selection based on content type
<CmsRouteHandler />
// Explicit template usage
<DefaultTemplate content={content} />
<SimpleDefaultTemplate content={content} />Custom Templates
// components/MyCustomTemplate.tsx
import { TemplateProps, CmsImage, SEOHead } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
export function MyCustomTemplate({ content }: TemplateProps) {
  return (
    <>
      <SEOHead content={content} />
      <article className="max-w-4xl mx-auto px-4">
        <header>
          <h1 className="text-4xl font-bold">{content.title}</h1>
          {content.mainImage && (
            <CmsImage
              image={content.mainImage}
              alt={content.title}
              priority
              className="w-full h-64 object-cover rounded-lg"
            />
          )}
        </header>
        <main>
          <ContentBody content={content.content} />
        </main>
      </article>
    </>
  );
}
// Register custom template
import { registerTemplate } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
registerTemplate('custom', MyCustomTemplate);Lazy Loading Templates
import { 
  DynamicTemplateLoader,
  LazyDefaultTemplateV2,
  preloadTemplate 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Dynamic template loading with preloading
<DynamicTemplateLoader 
  templateName="default-v2"
  preloadOnHover={true}
  content={content}
/>
// Manual preloading
useEffect(() => {
  preloadTemplate('default-v2');
}, []);๐ SEO Optimization
Automatic SEO
SEO optimization is automatic with smart defaults:
import { SEOHead, useSEOData } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Automatic SEO for CMS content
<CmsRouteHandler /> // SEO included automatically
// Manual SEO control
function MyPage({ content }) {
  return (
    <>
      <SEOHead 
        content={content}
        siteName="My Site"
        defaultDescription="Amazing content"
      />
      <main>{/* Your content */}</main>
    </>
  );
}
// Access SEO data in components
function MySEOComponent() {
  const seoData = useSEOData();
  return <div>Page title: {seoData.title}</div>;
}Advanced SEO Configuration
import { processSEO, generateStructuredData } from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Custom SEO processing
const seoData = processSEO(content, {
  siteName: 'My Site',
  defaultImage: '/default-og.png',
  twitterHandle: '@mysite',
  customSchema: {
    '@type': 'BlogPosting',
    publisher: {
      '@type': 'Organization',
      name: 'My Company'
    }
  }
});
// Generate structured data
const structuredData = generateStructuredData(content, 'article');๐ Performance Features
Multi-Layer Caching
import { 
  CacheProvider, 
  useCmsContentCached,
  CacheManager 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Global cache configuration
<CacheProvider 
  config={{
    strategy: 'stale-while-revalidate',
    ttl: 300000, // 5 minutes
    storage: ['memory', 'localStorage', 'indexedDB']
  }}
>
  <App />
</CacheProvider>
// Use cached content hooks
function MyComponent() {
  const { 
    data, 
    loading, 
    error, 
    stale, 
    revalidating,
    cacheHit 
  } = useCmsContentCached('posts', 'my-slug');
  
  return (
    <div>
      {loading && <LoadingSkeleton />}
      {error && <ErrorBoundary error={error} />}
      {data && <ContentDisplay content={data} />}
      {stale && <div>Updating content...</div>}
    </div>
  );
}
// Manual cache operations
const cacheManager = CacheManager.getInstance();
await cacheManager.invalidateByTag('posts');Image Optimization
import { 
  OptimizedImage, 
  CmsImage, 
  ResponsiveImage,
  HeroImage,
  AvatarImage 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Sanity image with optimization
<CmsImage
  image={content.mainImage}
  alt="Hero image"
  width={800}
  height={600}
  priority // Above the fold
  quality={90}
/>
// Responsive images
<ResponsiveImage
  image={content.image}
  aspectRatio="16:9"
  sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 50vw"
/>
// Specialized image components
<HeroImage image={heroImage} /> {/* Optimized for LCP */}
<AvatarImage image={authorImage} size="lg" /> {/* User avatars */}Lazy Loading & Code Splitting
import { 
  LazyLoadComponent,
  IntersectionWrapper,
  createLazyComponent,
  useIntersectionObserver 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Lazy load below-the-fold content
<LazyLoadComponent
  loader={() => import('./HeavyComponent')}
  fallback={<ContentSkeleton />}
  rootMargin="100px"
/>
// Intersection-based rendering
<IntersectionWrapper placeholder={<div>Loading...</div>}>
  <ExpensiveComponent />
</IntersectionWrapper>
// Custom lazy loading
const LazyComponent = createLazyComponent(
  () => import('./MyComponent'),
  { 
    fallback: <LoadingSkeleton />,
    retryAttempts: 3 
  }
);
// Custom intersection observer
function MyComponent() {
  const [ref, isVisible] = useIntersectionObserver({
    threshold: 0.1,
    rootMargin: '50px'
  });
  
  return (
    <div ref={ref}>
      {isVisible && <ExpensiveContent />}
    </div>
  );
}๐ก๏ธ Error Handling
Error Boundaries
import { 
  ErrorBoundary, 
  CmsErrorBoundary,
  ApiErrorBoundary,
  withErrorBoundary 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Wrap components with error boundaries
<ErrorBoundary
  fallback={<ErrorPage />}
  onError={(error, errorInfo) => console.error(error)}
>
  <MyComponent />
</ErrorBoundary>
// CMS-specific error handling
<CmsErrorBoundary>
  <CmsContent />
</CmsErrorBoundary>
// HOC pattern
const SafeComponent = withErrorBoundary(MyComponent, {
  fallback: <div>Something went wrong</div>
});Error Logging
import { 
  ErrorLogger, 
  logError, 
  logCriticalError 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
// Automatic error logging (configured in CmsProvider)
// Errors are automatically categorized and sent to monitoring
// Manual error logging
try {
  // risky operation
} catch (error) {
  logError(error, {
    category: 'api',
    severity: 'error',
    context: { userId: 'user123' }
  });
}
// Critical errors
logCriticalError(new Error('Payment failed'), {
  context: { orderId: 'order-123' }
});Fallback Content
import { 
  FallbackContent, 
  ContentFallback,
  useFallbackContent 
} from '@ai-growth/nextjs';
