SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the creation of robust, production-ready APIs across a wide range of programming languages and frameworks, addressing common development challenges like middleware, error handling, and schema generation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-Language Support: Implement APIs in Node.js (Express, NestJS, Fastify, Hono, ElysiaJS, tRPC), Go (Gin, Echo, Fiber, Chi), Rust (Axum, Actix-web), Java (Spring Boot 3, Quarkus), .NET (ASP.NET Core 8), Ruby (Rails 7, Grape), Elixir (Phoenix), and PHP (Laravel, Symfony).
  • Comprehensive Features: Covers middleware pipelines, RFC 7807 error handling, rate limiting, OpenAPI 3.1 codegen, tRPC, GraphQL servers, and API versioning.
  • Use Case: You need to build a new REST API backend using Go and the Gin framework. This Skill provides patterns and best practices for setting up routing, middleware, request validation, and error handling specific to Gin.

Quick Start

Use the role-backend:api-implementation skill to generate a basic Express.js API structure with JWT authentication and RFC 7807 error handling.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement RFC 7807 error handling in a REST API?

Implement RFC 7807 error handling in a REST API by standardizing error responses with problem details JSON objects. This Skill provides patterns to structure application/json error payloads, integrating middleware pipelines to manage validation and runtime errors consistently across supported frameworks.

What is the best way to set up middleware and rate limiting in Go Gin APIs?

The best way to set up middleware and rate limiting in Go Gin APIs involves configuring routing pipelines to intercept requests before they reach controllers. This Skill provides best practices for applying rate limiting middleware to prevent API abuse in Go frameworks like Gin, Echo, and Fiber.

Does this backend API builder support Node.js frameworks like NestJS and Fastify?

Yes, this backend API builder supports Node.js frameworks including NestJS, Fastify, Express, Hono, and ElysiaJS. It allows you to implement production-ready API endpoints, apply middleware, and generate OpenAPI 3.1 documentation across these environments.

How do I generate OpenAPI 3.1 documentation and GraphQL servers?

Generate OpenAPI 3.1 documentation and GraphQL servers by utilizing built-in codegen features to produce schema specs from API routes. This Skill covers setting up GraphQL servers and creating OpenAPI 3.1 definitions to document REST endpoints across languages like Java, Rust, and .NET.

Can I use tRPC for API implementation instead of traditional REST?

Yes, you can use tRPC for API implementation instead of traditional REST endpoints. This Skill supports building tRPC servers to enable end-to-end type-safe APIs, offering an alternative to REST or GraphQL for Node.js backend architectures.
