## What it is
Taxonomy is an open-source Next.js 13 demo application showcasing the App Router, server components, authentication with NextAuth.js, Prisma ORM, Radix UI components, and Stripe subscriptions. It served as a reference implementation for modern Next.js patterns but has been officially archived and is no longer maintained.

## Use cases
- learn how to build an app with the Next.js App Router
- example of server components in a real application
- reference for NextAuth.js authentication setup
- starter code for a SaaS app with Stripe subscriptions
- see how Prisma and PlanetScale fit into a Next.js project
- example of MDX-based docs and blog in Next.js
- study Radix UI and Tailwind CSS component patterns

## When to choose
- studying historical Next.js 13 App Router patterns and server components
- learning how auth, ORM, and subscriptions were wired together in early App Router apps
- using it as a reference for Radix UI + Tailwind component composition

## When to avoid
- starting a new production project - it is archived and uses deprecated patterns
- following current Next.js best practices - the framework has changed significantly
- expecting bug fixes, updates, or support
