+Replace @mui/base with native React implementations
+
+Removes the @mui/base dependency by implementing native React versions of Portal and ClickAwayListener components. This reduces bundle size and eliminates external dependencies while maintaining full functionality and compatibility.
+
+- Created native Portal component using React's createPortal
+- Created native ClickAwayListener component using DOM event listeners
+- Added comprehensive test coverage for both new utility components
+- All existing functionality preserved with no breaking changes

+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Project Overview
+
+This is `react-loqate`, a React component library for Loqate address search API integration. The main component is `AddressSearch` which provides an input field with dropdown suggestions that integrates with Loqate's address lookup services.
+
+## Development Commands
+
+### Building and Development
+
+- `pnpm build` - Build the library using tsup (ESM, CJS formats with TypeScript declarations)
+- `pnpm dev` - Start Storybook development server on port 6006
+- `pnpm check` - Run linting and type checking (used by pre-commit hook)
+
+### Testing and Quality Assurance
+
+- `pnpm test` - Run tests with Vitest in watch mode
+- `pnpm test:ci` - Run tests once for CI
+- `pnpm lint` - Run ESLint and Prettier checks
+- `tsc` - Run TypeScript compiler for type checking
+
+### Publishing
+
+- `pnpm changeset` - Create a changeset for version management
+- `pnpm publish:ci` - Build and publish to npm (CI only)
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Main Component Structure
+
+- **Main Component**: `src/index.tsx` contains the `AddressSearch` component
+- **Default Components**: Located in `src/components/` - `DefaultInput`, `DefaultList`, `DefaultListItem`
+- **API Layer**: `src/utils/Loqate.ts` handles all API communication with Loqate services
+- **Custom Hooks**: `src/utils/useDebounceEffect.ts` for debouncing user input
+
+### Key Design Patterns
+
+- **Component Composition**: Supports custom components via `components` prop (Input, List, ListItem)
+- **Portal Rendering**: Uses MUI Base Portal for dropdown positioning (can be disabled with `inline` prop)
+- **Error Handling**: Two error types - `LoqateError` (API errors) and `ReactLoqateError` (client errors)
+- **Debouncing**: Built-in debounced API calls (default/configurable timeout)
+
+### API Integration
+
+The component integrates with two Loqate API endpoints:
+
+- **Find API**: Search for address suggestions based on text input
+- **Retrieve API**: Get full address details when user selects a suggestion
+
+### Dependencies
+
+- **Core**: React 18+, MUI Base (for Portal/ClickAwayListener), clsx for class management
+- **Build**: tsup for bundling, TypeScript for types
+- **Testing**: Vitest with jsdom, React Testing Library
+- **Development**: Storybook for component development, ESLint + Prettier for code quality
+
+## Testing
+
+Tests use Vitest with React Testing Library and jsdom environment. Test files are located in:
+
+- `src/index.test.tsx` - Main component tests
+- `src/utils/__tests__/` - Utility function tests
+
+Coverage is configured to include all TypeScript files in the `src/` directory.
+
+## Configuration Notes
+
+- **TypeScript**: Strict mode enabled with comprehensive type checking
+- **ESLint**: Uses recommended rules + TypeScript + Storybook plugins
+- **Prettier**: Configured for 80-character lines, semicolons, single quotes
+- **Husky**: Pre-commit hook runs `pnpm check`
+- **Package Manager**: Uses pnpm with lockfile
+
+## Release Management
+
+Uses Changesets for version management:
+
+1. Create feature branch with changes
+2. Add changeset with `pnpm changeset`
+3. Create PR to main
+4. GitHub Actions creates/updates release PR
+5. Merge release PR triggers automated publishing
