Walkthrough

This PR implements user-context-aware updates for hackathons and events with re-approval workflows, adds creator-focused email notifications for event approvals and rejections, introduces member removal emails, adds new notification types for status changes, updates branding terminology (CodeUnia → Codeunia), and adjusts UI spacing across company pages.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Hackathon Update Context app/api/admin/hackathons/route.ts, app/api/hackathons/[id]/route.ts	Both hackathon update endpoints now pass the authenticated user's ID to the updateHackathon service method, enabling user-aware update tracking.
Event Moderation Email Flows app/api/admin/moderation/events/[id]/approve/route.ts, app/api/admin/moderation/events/[id]/reject/route.ts	Both approval and rejection handlers now fetch event creator details from the profiles table and send creator-specific emails with personalized greetings, followed by conditional company notifications. Email templates updated to accept optional creatorName parameter.
Member Removal Notification app/api/companies/[slug]/members/[userId]/route.ts	DELETE flow now asynchronously sends member removal email using new getMemberRemovedEmail template after deletion, with non-blocking error handling.
Email Templates & Branding lib/email/company-emails.ts, lib/email/templates/event-rejected.tsx	Added getMemberRemovedEmail export for member removal notifications. Updated branding terminology (CodeUnia → Codeunia) across multiple email templates and subject lines.
Notification Types types/notifications.ts, components/notifications/notification-utils.tsx	Added four new notification type literals (event_updated, event_status_changed, hackathon_updated, hackathon_status_changed) and corresponding icon/color mappings in utility functions.
Re-approval Workflows lib/services/events.ts, lib/services/hackathons.ts	Both services updated to accept a userId parameter. When approved items are edited, approval status resets to pending, and notifications are sent to admins and company members via dynamically imported services.
UI Layout Adjustments app/companies/[slug]/events/page.tsx, app/companies/[slug]/hackathons/page.tsx, app/companies/[slug]/page.tsx, components/companies/CompanyProfile.tsx	Header/section padding increased (py-12 → pt-24 pb-12 on pages; banner height h-48 → h-56/h-64, CardHeader offset -mt-16 → -mt-20 on component) for improved vertical spacing.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 3 (Moderate) | ⏱️ ~25 minutes

• Areas requiring extra attention:
  • lib/services/events.ts and lib/services/hackathons.ts: Complex re-approval logic with dynamic imports and multi-step notification flows; verify notification payloads and absence of circular dependencies.
  • app/api/admin/moderation/events/[id]/approve/route.ts and reject/route.ts: Two-step email sending with conditional logic; confirm error handling doesn't suppress email failures inappropriately.
  • Email template signature updates across approve and reject routes; ensure all callers pass the new creatorName parameter correctly.

Possibly related PRs

• feat(events): Add event management pages and invitation check API #313: Modifies lib/services/events.ts's updateEvent method signature and behavior (restricts status updates); overlaps with this PR's similar method signature and re-approval logic changes.
• Feat/multicompanylevel – Enhance event handling, usage tracking, and notifications #317: Adjusts event update/approval behavior and notification templates/triggers; directly related to event moderation email flows and notification types introduced here.
• feat(hackathons): Add comprehensive hackathon management and moderation system #324: Modifies hackathon service update flows and approval status handling; parallels the updateHackathon re-approval logic added in this PR.

Poem

🐰 Users context now flows through updates bright,
Approvals reset when edits take flight,
Creator emails greet with personalized cheer,
Members removed hear kindly, crystal clear,
Spacing takes breath—the UI takes flight! ✨
