SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Starting a new full-stack project requires manually creating product requirements, setting up frontend and backend infrastructure, and configuring development environments, which is time-consuming and prone to configuration errors. This skill automates the entire end-to-end scaffolding process in a single guided workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sequential skill orchestration: Chains domain-to-spec, scaffold-frontend, and optional scaffold-backend in the correct order with user confirmation checkpoints between steps.
  • Preflight validation: Checks for existing project files to avoid accidental overwrites, and verifies each step's success before proceeding to the next.
  • Use case: A developer starting a new SaaS project can use this skill to generate a complete PRD, Next.js frontend, and optional FastAPI backend in minutes, with all dev servers running for immediate testing.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate full-stack project initialization for Next.js and FastAPI?

Automate full-stack project initialization by chaining domain-to-spec, frontend, and backend scaffolding into a single guided workflow. This eliminates manual setup, generates a PRD from a high-level description, and starts local dev servers for immediate testing.

Can I generate a product requirements document before scaffolding a Next.js frontend?

Yes, you can generate a product requirements document before scaffolding a Next.js frontend. The sequential skill orchestration creates a PRD from your high-level domain description first, using user confirmation checkpoints before proceeding to frontend setup.

Does the full-stack scaffolding workflow check for existing project files to prevent overwrites?

The full-stack scaffolding workflow includes preflight validation that checks for existing project files to prevent accidental overwrites. It also verifies each step's success before proceeding to the next phase.

Is the FastAPI backend required when bootstrapping a new full-stack project?

The FastAPI backend is optional when bootstrapping a new full-stack project. You can use this workflow to scaffold a standalone Next.js frontend or include the optional FastAPI backend based on your project requirements.

How do I start local dev servers immediately after project initialization?

Start local dev servers immediately after project initialization through the automated workflow. The guided process ensures both Next.js frontend and optional FastAPI backend dev servers are running for immediate testing once setup completes.
