Patterns Identified

✅ Good Patterns

1. Button component: Consistent hover and focus states
2. Track cards: Enhanced hover states (Action 8.2.1.1)
3. FAB: Good hover and active states

⚠️ Needs Improvement

1. Native button elements: Inconsistent hover/focus states
2. Clickable cards: Missing focus states
3. Navigation items: Missing focus states
4. Form inputs: Focus states need verification
5. View mode toggles: Missing cursor-pointer and focus states

❌ Missing

1. Focus states: Most interactive elements lack focus-visible states
2. Cursor indicators: Some clickable elements don't have cursor-pointer
3. Keyboard navigation: Focus states needed for accessibility

Statistics

• Total interactive elements: 500+ (estimated)
• Button components: 300+ instances
• Link components: 100+ instances
• Clickable cards: 50+ instances
• Form inputs: 200+ instances
• Navigation items: 50+ instances

   • ✅ Existing hover:text-white preserved

2. FeedView Buttons (FeedView.tsx:100-123)

   • ✅ Added cursor-pointer
   • ✅ Added transition-colors
   • ✅ Existing hover states preserved

3. Logout Buttons

Remaining High-Priority Areas

1. Clickable Cards (beyond track cards)

   • Playlist cards
   • Post cards
   • Product cards
   • User cards

2. Navigation Links

   • Sidebar navigation links (already have hover, may need cursor-pointer verification)
