@copilot review the whole codebase and check for any upgrades remaining. Perform a complete review analysis by installing the updated dependencies and perform a comprehensive browser automation testing using real life use case scenarios, perform debugging check for any errors or warnings, if exist then implement fix with all the Next.js 16 best practices (including production ready). Make sure to use next.js 16 mcp tools for the implementation |

The import path 'eslint/config' and the functions defineConfig and globalIgnores don't appear to be part of the standard ESLint 9.x API.
According to the ESLint flat config documentation, the correct approach is:
- Export a plain array or object directly (no
defineConfigwrapper needed) - Use
{ ignores: [...] }as a config object, notglobalIgnores([...])
Standard ESLint 9 flat config should look like:
export default [
...nextVitals,
...nextTs,
{
ignores: ['.next/**', 'out/**', 'build/**', 'next-env.d.ts', 'node_modules/**']
}
];Please verify that this configuration actually works in your environment, as the current syntax doesn't match ESLint's official flat config specification.

The getInitialTheme() function will cause hydration mismatches between server and client. On the server, typeof window === 'undefined' returns 'light', but on the client it might be 'dark' based on localStorage or system preferences.
This breaks React's hydration process because the server-rendered HTML won't match the initial client render. The original pattern of initializing state with 'light' and then updating in useEffect was correct for SSR/hydration.
The recommended approach for theme providers with SSR is:
- Always start with a default value (e.g., 'light')
- Update the theme in useEffect after mount
- Alternatively, use a script tag in the HTML head to set the theme class before React hydrates (preventing flash)
| // Initialize with computed value to avoid state updates in useEffect | |
| const [theme, setThemeState] = useState<Theme>(getInitialTheme) | |
| const [mounted, setMounted] = useState(false) | |
| // Initialize with a fixed default to avoid SSR/client hydration mismatches. | |
| const [theme, setThemeState] = useState<Theme>('light') | |
| const [mounted, setMounted] = useState(false) | |
| // After mount, determine the preferred theme on the client and update state. | |
| useEffect(() => { | |
| const initialTheme = getInitialTheme() | |
| setThemeState(initialTheme) | |
| }, []) |

The --ext flag is deprecated in ESLint 9 when using flat config. With flat config, file extensions are determined by the config itself and glob patterns.
Update the lint script to:
"lint": "eslint . --fix"
ESLint 9 with flat config will automatically use the appropriate file patterns based on your configuration.
| "lint": "eslint . --ext .ts,.tsx,.js,.jsx --fix", | |
| "lint": "eslint . --fix", |

The ESLint disable comment here is unusual and potentially problematic. The comment react-hooks/set-state-in-effect doesn't match a standard ESLint React Hooks rule name (the correct rule is react-hooks/exhaustive-deps or similar).
If you're intentionally calling setMounted(true) in this effect, this is actually a valid and common pattern for hydration. However, the disable comment appears to be referencing a non-existent rule. You should either remove this comment entirely (since calling setState in useEffect is a valid pattern) or verify the correct rule name if you're trying to suppress a specific warning.
