### Source File Copyright Header

**Required**: All source code files must include copyright header

#### TypeScript/JavaScript (Angular Frontend)

```typescript
/**
 * Copyright (c) 2025 Ibtikar Edu Tech Solutions LLC - YHT EdTech Division
 * Kinana Content Hub Platform
 *
 * This code is proprietary and confidential.
 */

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-component-name',
  templateUrl: './component-name.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./component-name.component.scss']
})
export class ComponentNameComponent implements OnInit {
  // Component implementation
}

C# (ABP.io Backend)

/**
 * Copyright (c) 2025 Ibtikar Edu Tech Solutions LLC - YHT EdTech Division
 * Kinana Content Hub Platform
 *
 * This code is proprietary and confidential.
 */

using System;
using Volo.Abp.Application.Services;

namespace Kinana.Application
{
    public class ServiceName : ApplicationService
    {
        // Service implementation
    }
}

HTML/CSS

<div class="container">

</div>

Angular Component Template

Generation: Use Angular CLI

ng generate component components/component-name

Resulting Structure:

component-name/
├── component-name.component.ts       # Component logic
├── component-name.component.html     # Template
├── component-name.component.scss     # Styles
└── component-name.component.spec.ts  # Unit tests

Best Practices:

  • Smart/Container components at top level
  • Presentational components in shared/components
  • Follow Angular style guide naming conventions

Angular Service Template

ng generate service services/service-name

Template:

/**
 * Copyright (c) 2025 Ibtikar Edu Tech Solutions LLC - YHT EdTech Division
 * Kinana Content Hub Platform
 *
 * This code is proprietary and confidential.
 */

import { Injectable } from "@angular/core";
import { HttpClient } from "@angular/common/http";
import { Observable } from "rxjs";

@Injectable({
  providedIn: "root",
})
export class ServiceNameService {
  private apiUrl = "/api/service-name";

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {}

  getData(): Observable<any> {
    return this.http.get(this.apiUrl);
  }
}

ABP.io Entity Template

Generation: Use ABP CLI or ABP Studio

abp generate entity EntityName

Manual Template (if needed):

/**
 * Copyright (c) 2025 Ibtikar Edu Tech Solutions LLC - YHT EdTech Division
 * Kinana Content Hub Platform
 *
 * This code is proprietary and confidential.
 */

using System;
using Volo.Abp.Domain.Entities.Auditing;

namespace Kinana.Domain.Entities
{
    public class EntityName : FullAuditedAggregateRoot<Guid>
    {
        public string PropertyName { get; set; }

        protected EntityName()
        {
            // Required by EF Core
        }

        public EntityName(Guid id, string propertyName)
            : base(id)
        {
            PropertyName = propertyName;
        }
    }
}

Docker Configuration Template

Dockerfile (standard structure):

# Copyright (c) 2025 Ibtikar Edu Tech Solutions LLC - YHT EdTech Division
# Kinana Content Hub Platform
