+## 2. Clapping System Implementation (Medium-style)
+
+### Overview
+Implement a Medium-style clapping system that allows users to show appreciation levels (1-50 claps per post) rather than simple binary likes. This creates deeper engagement and better content quality signals.
+
+### Current Status
+**NEW APPROACH** - Switching from traditional likes to a more engaging clapping system inspired by Medium.
+
+### Database Updates Required
+
+#### Blog Model Enhancement
+```typescript
+// In models/blog.ts
+claps: {
+  total: {
+    type: Number,
+    default: 0,
+    index: true  // For efficient sorting by popularity
+  },
+  uniqueUsers: {
+    type: Number,
+    default: 0   // Count of unique users who clapped
+  },
+  userClaps: [{
+    userId: {
+      type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
+      ref: 'User',
+      required: true
+    },
+    count: {
+      type: Number,
+      min: 1,
+      max: 50,    // Maximum 50 claps per user per post
+      required: true
+    },
+    lastClappedAt: {
+      type: Date,
+      default: Date.now
+    }
+  }]
+}
+
+// Add compound index for efficient queries
+BlogSchema.index({ 'claps.userId': 1, '_id': 1 })
+BlogSchema.index({ 'claps.total': -1 })  // For sorting by popularity
+```
+
+### API Endpoints to Implement
+
+#### Clapping Endpoints
+- [ ] `POST /api/blogs/[slug]/clap` - Add claps to a post
+  ```typescript
+  // Request
+  { 
+    "claps": 5  // Number of claps to add (1-50 total per user)
+  }
+  
+  // Response
+  {
+    "success": true,
+    "data": {
+      "slug": "blog-slug",
+      "totalClaps": 234,      // Total claps on the post
+      "userClaps": 10,        // Current user's total claps
+      "remainingClaps": 40,   // How many more user can add
+      "uniqueUsers": 45       // Number of people who clapped
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+- [ ] `GET /api/blogs/[slug]/clap-status` - Get current clap status
+  - Return total claps and current user's clap count
+  - Check remaining claps available for user
+  - Used for initial page load
+
+- [ ] `DELETE /api/blogs/[slug]/clap` - Remove all user's claps (optional)
+  - Allow users to undo their claps
+  - Reset user's clap count to 0
+
+### Components to Create
+
+#### Clapping Components
+- [ ] `components/blogs/ClapButton.tsx`
+  ```typescript
+  interface ClapButtonProps {
+    blogSlug: string
+    initialTotalClaps: number
+    initialUserClaps?: number
+    maxClaps?: number  // Default 50
+    size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'
+    showCount?: boolean
+    className?: string
+  }
+  ```
+  - **Interaction Modes**:
+    - Click to add single clap
+    - Hold for continuous clapping (with acceleration)
+    - Show +1, +2, +3 floating animations
+  - **Features**:
+    - Optimistic updates with `useOptimistic`
+    - Debounced API calls (wait for user to finish)
+    - Animated clap counter
+    - Haptic feedback on mobile (vibration)
+    - Progress indicator (10/50 claps used)
+    - Confetti animation at milestones (10, 25, 50)
+
+- [ ] `components/blogs/ClapCounter.tsx`
+  - Display total claps with formatting (1.2k, 1M)
+  - Show breakdown on hover (234 claps from 45 readers)
+  - Average claps per user indicator
+  - Trending badge for high engagement
+
+- [ ] `components/blogs/ClapAnimation.tsx`
+  - Floating +1 animations on each clap

+
+### Integration Points
+- [ ] Add ClapButton to blog post pages (after content, near share buttons)
+- [ ] Show clap counts in BlogCard components
+- [ ] Update dashboard with total claps statistics
+- [ ] Add "Most Appreciated" section to blog listing
+- [ ] Sort blogs by engagement (claps/unique users ratio)
+- [ ] Show user's clapping history in profile
+
+### UI/UX Design
+```typescript
+// Visual representation
+<div className="flex items-center gap-4">
+  {/* Clap button with animation */}
+  <button className="group relative">
+    <span className="text-2xl">👏</span>
+    {/* Floating +1 animation */}
+    {showAnimation && <span className="animate-float">+1</span>}
+    {/* Progress ring showing 10/50 */}
+    <svg className="absolute inset-0">
+      <circle strokeDasharray={`${progress} 100`} />
+    </svg>
+  </button>
+  
+  {/* Clap counter */}
+  <div className="flex flex-col">
+    <span className="font-bold">234</span>
+    <span className="text-xs text-muted">
+      {userClaps > 0 && `You: ${userClaps}`}
+    </span>
+  </div>
+</div>
+```
+
+### Technical Specifications

+# Profile Tabs URL Routing Implementation
+
+## Overview
+Currently, the profile settings use local tab state which resets to the first tab after page refresh. Need to implement URL-based routing for each profile tab to maintain state persistence and enable direct linking.
+
+## Current Issue
+- Profile settings tabs (Profile, Balance, Billing, Services, Security, Danger Zone) use React state
+- After page refresh, always defaults to "Profile" tab
+- No way to directly link to specific tabs (e.g., `/profile?tab=balance`)
+- Poor UX for users who want to bookmark specific sections
+
+## Proposed Solution
+
+### Option 1: Query Parameters (Recommended)
+Use URL query parameters to maintain tab state while keeping single page structure:
+- `/profile` - Default to Profile tab
+- `/profile?tab=balance` - Balance tab
+- `/profile?tab=billing` - Billing tab  
+- `/profile?tab=services` - Services tab
+- `/profile?tab=security` - Security tab
+- `/profile?tab=danger-zone` - Danger Zone tab
+
+### Option 2: Dedicated Routes
+Create separate routes for each section (more complex but better SEO):
+- `/profile` - Profile settings
+- `/profile/balance` - Balance management
+- `/profile/billing` - Billing history
+- `/profile/services` - Active services
+- `/profile/security` - Security settings
+- `/profile/settings` - Danger zone/account deletion
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Query Parameter Approach (Recommended)
+
+#### 1. Update Profile Page
+```typescript
+// app/profile/page.tsx
+'use client'
+import { useSearchParams, useRouter } from 'next/navigation'
+import { useEffect, useState } from 'react'
+
+export default function ProfilePage() {
+  const searchParams = useSearchParams()
+  const router = useRouter()
+  const [activeTab, setActiveTab] = useState('profile')
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    const tab = searchParams.get('tab')
+    if (tab && ['profile', 'balance', 'billing', 'services', 'security', 'danger-zone'].includes(tab)) {
+      setActiveTab(tab)
+    }
+  }, [searchParams])
+
+  const handleTabChange = (tab: string) => {
+    setActiveTab(tab)
+    const params = new URLSearchParams(searchParams.toString())
+    params.set('tab', tab)
+    router.push(`/profile?${params.toString()}`)
+  }
+
+  return (
+    <ProfileSettings activeTab={activeTab} onTabChange={handleTabChange} />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+#### 2. Update ProfileSettings Component
+```typescript
+// components/profile/ProfileSettings.tsx
+interface ProfileSettingsProps {
+  activeTab?: string
+  onTabChange?: (tab: string) => void
+}
+
+export function ProfileSettings({ activeTab = 'profile', onTabChange }: ProfileSettingsProps) {
+  return (
+    <Tabs value={activeTab} onValueChange={onTabChange} className="space-y-6">
+      {/* Rest of component */}
+    </Tabs>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Dedicated Routes Approach
+
+#### 1. Create Route Structure
+```
+app/profile/
+├── page.tsx              # Profile settings (default)
+├── balance/
+│   └── page.tsx         # Balance management
+├── billing/
+│   └── page.tsx         # Billing history  
+├── services/
+│   └── page.tsx         # Active services
+├── security/
+│   └── page.tsx         # Security settings
+└── settings/
+    └── page.tsx         # Danger zone
+```
+
+#### 2. Create Layout Component
+```typescript

+# Services Backend Integration
+
+## Overview
+The Active Services Management UI is complete, but requires backend API integration to replace dummy data and implement real functionality for service management, configuration downloads, and service operations.
+
+## Current Status
+- ✅ Frontend UI complete with service cards, action buttons, and empty states
+- ✅ Service-specific download buttons (Kubernetes config, Hosting config) 
+- ✅ Settings/configuration buttons with tooltips
+- ❌ Backend API integration pending
+- ❌ Real service data fetching not implemented
+- ❌ Actual download functionality not connected
+
+## Backend APIs Required
+
+### 1. Get Active Services
+```typescript
+GET /api/services/active
+Response: {
+  success: boolean
+  data: Service[]
+}
+
+interface Service {
+  id: string
+  name: string
+  serviceId: string
+  billingId: string
+  clusterId?: string
+  startDate: string
+  nextBilling: string
+  status: 'active' | 'suspended' | 'cancelled'
+  type: 'hosting' | 'kubernetes' | 'database' | 'domain' | 'vps' | 'cloud'
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Service Configuration/Settings
+```typescript
+GET /api/services/{serviceId}/config
+POST /api/services/{serviceId}/config
+Response: Service configuration data
+```
+
+### 3. Download Service Configurations
+```typescript
+GET /api/services/download/kubernetes/{clusterId}
+GET /api/services/download/hosting/{billingId}
+Response: File download (ZIP, YAML, etc.)
+```
+
+### 4. Service Management Actions
+```typescript
+POST /api/services/{serviceId}/suspend
+POST /api/services/{serviceId}/resume  
+DELETE /api/services/{serviceId}
+```
+
+## Frontend Integration Tasks
+
+### Phase 1: Data Integration
+- [ ] Replace mock data with API calls
+- [ ] Implement service fetching with loading states
+- [ ] Add error handling for API failures
+- [ ] Implement proper TypeScript interfaces
+
+### Phase 2: Download Functionality
+- [ ] Implement Kubernetes config download
+- [ ] Implement hosting config download
+- [ ] Add download progress indicators
+- [ ] Handle download errors gracefully
+
+### Phase 3: Service Management
+- [ ] Connect settings buttons to service configuration
+- [ ] Implement service suspension/resumption
+- [ ] Add service deletion with confirmation
+- [ ] Real-time service status updates
+
+### Phase 4: Enhanced Features
+- [ ] Service usage statistics
+- [ ] Service health monitoring
+- [ ] Automated service alerts
+- [ ] Service upgrade/downgrade options
+
+## Database Schema Requirements
+
+### Services Table
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE services (
+  id VARCHAR(255) PRIMARY KEY,
+  user_id VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
+  service_id VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
+  billing_id VARCHAR(255),
+  cluster_id VARCHAR(255),
+  name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
+  type ENUM('hosting', 'kubernetes', 'database', 'domain', 'vps', 'cloud'),
+  status ENUM('active', 'suspended', 'cancelled') DEFAULT 'active',
+  start_date DATETIME NOT NULL,
+  next_billing_date DATETIME,
+  config JSON,
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  updated_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  INDEX idx_user_status (user_id, status),
+  INDEX idx_service_type (type),
+  FOREIGN KEY (user_id) REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE
+);
+```
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### Step 1: API Route Creation
+1. Create `/api/services/active` route

+    code: string
+    message: string
+    details?: any
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Common Error Scenarios
+- Service not found (404)
