How does it handle backend security?

The skill includes standardized patterns for JWT authentication, role-based authorization (RBAC), and essential security middleware like Helmet and CORS.

Does this skill support both Express and Fastify?

Yes, it provides configuration and best practices for both minimalist Express.js setups and high-performance Fastify frameworks.

What architectural patterns are included?

It primarily focuses on Layered Architecture (Controller-Service-Repository) and Dependency Injection to ensure codebases remain maintainable and testable.

Can I use this for TypeScript projects?

Absolutely; all patterns and implementation examples are designed specifically for TypeScript to leverage type safety and modern syntax.

API Development

Builds production-ready Node.js backend services using modern architectural patterns and frameworks like Express and Fastify.

About

The Node.js Backend Patterns skill empowers developers to architect scalable, maintainable, and high-performance server-side applications by providing standardized implementations for common backend challenges. It offers expert guidance on layered architecture (Controllers, Services, Repositories), dependency injection, robust error handling, and security middleware, ensuring your APIs are secure, type-safe, and ready for production environments.

Key Features

Offers schema-based validation and centralized error handling logic
Implements scalable layered architecture patterns (Controller, Service, Repository)
0 GitHub stars
Provides boilerplate for high-performance Express and Fastify configurations
Includes robust authentication and authorization middleware examples
Standardizes database integration and dependency injection techniques

Use Cases

Architecting RESTful APIs or GraphQL servers with TypeScript
Implementing secure user authentication and role-based access control
Building microservices with clean, decoupled business logic
