How does this skill help with application architecture?

It guides the implementation of a layered architecture (Controller-Service-Repository) and dependency injection to ensure your backend remains scalable and easy to test.

Does it include security best practices?

Yes, the skill covers essential security measures including JWT-based authentication, Helmet security headers, CORS configuration, and Zod-based request validation.

Is this skill optimized for TypeScript?

Absolutely. All architectural patterns and code examples are optimized for TypeScript to ensure full type safety across your entire backend stack.

Does this skill support both Express and Fastify?

Yes, it provides comprehensive patterns and boilerplate configurations for both the minimalist Express.js framework and the high-performance Fastify framework.
