SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of new Node.js REST API projects, providing a robust starting point that adheres to Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design principles, saving significant setup time and ensuring best practices from the outset.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Project Scaffolding: Generates a complete project structure with domain, application, and infrastructure layers.
  • DDD & Clean Architecture: Implements entities, value objects, use cases, repository patterns, and strict TypeScript.
  • Use Case: When a user requests to start a new microservice for a booking system, this Skill generates the foundational code, including bounded contexts, entities like Booking, and basic use cases like create-booking.

Quick Start

Use the nodejs-api-scaffold skill to generate a new project named 'user-management-api'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a Node.js API with Clean Architecture and DDD?

To scaffold a Node.js API with Clean Architecture, use this tool to generate project skeletons separating domain, application, and infrastructure layers. It automatically structures bounded contexts, entities, repositories, and use cases following Domain-Driven Design principles.

What is the best way to start an enterprise Node.js TypeScript backend service?

The best way to start an enterprise Node.js TypeScript backend is generating a boilerplate with strict typing and ESM configuration. This creates a foundational structure implementing repository patterns and value objects, ensuring best practices from the outset without manual setup.

Can I generate bounded contexts and use cases for a Node.js REST API?

Yes, you can generate bounded contexts and use cases for a Node.js REST API. The scaffolding process creates specific domain entities like Booking and corresponding application use cases like create-booking to structure microservices efficiently.

Does this Node.js scaffolding tool configure TypeScript path aliases and Vitest?

Yes, this Node.js scaffolding tool configures strict TypeScript, ESM, path aliases, and Vitest testing. It sets up the development environment fully during project generation so testing and module resolution work immediately.

When do I need a Clean Architecture boilerplate for a Node.js API?

You need a Clean Architecture boilerplate when initiating new backend services requiring enterprise patterns. It solves the problem of significant setup time by providing domain, application, and infrastructure layers that enforce strict separation of concerns.

How to set up domain entities and repository patterns in TypeScript?

To set up domain entities and repository patterns in TypeScript, generate a project skeleton using this scaffolding tool. It creates structured directories for entities, value objects, and repositories, implementing DDD principles automatically.
