SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Development teams often struggle with slow, inconsistent setup verification across the full-stack Budget Buddy environment, leading to undetected misconfigurations and failing deployments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive health checks for backend, frontend, database, and environment variables.
  • Automated diagnostic script execution and health endpoint validation for rapid triage.
  • Use Case: When onboarding or debugging, run diagnostics to confirm that all components are reachable and correctly configured, then generate a report.

Quick Start

Run the diagnostic suite from the repository root to verify the local development environment and generate a comprehensive report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run health checks for my full-stack environment and database connectivity?▼

Full-stack environment health checks validate backend, frontend, database connectivity, and environment variables. Running a diagnostic suite confirms all components are reachable and correctly configured, then generates a comprehensive health report.

Why does my development environment fail after onboarding or configuration changes?▼

Development environment failures often stem from undetected misconfigurations or unreachable components. Automated diagnostic scripts validate backend and frontend connectivity, database readiness, and environment variables to rapidly triage setup issues.

What's the best way to automate environment variable validation and API endpoint diagnostics?▼

Automating environment variable validation and API endpoint diagnostics uses structured diagnostic scripts and health endpoint checks. This workflow validates full-stack configurations across common scenarios and outputs a structured diagnostic report.

Can I use diagnostic scripts to verify CORS configuration and backend readiness together?▼

Yes, diagnostic scripts can verify CORS configuration alongside backend and database readiness. The comprehensive health checks validate frontend and backend connectivity, environment variables, and API endpoint health in a single automated workflow.

How does a diagnostic report workflow handle API endpoint health validation?▼

A diagnostic report workflow executes automated health endpoint validation scripts to check API endpoint health. It systematically verifies backend/frontend connectivity, database readiness, and environment variables, aggregating results into a comprehensive report.
