SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bootstrap production-ready microservices by generating a complete, standards-aligned skeleton to reduce boilerplate and drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates a Node.js + Express + TypeScript scaffold with a complete folder layout (src, tests, Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, README.md) and example core files (app.ts, server.ts, routes, controllers, services, middleware, config, tests) ensuring consistency with organizational patterns.
  • Reads existing patterns to align the scaffold with your org's conventions, enabling rapid bootstrapping of new services that follow established templates.
  • Supports local development and deployment readiness with documented service contract (README.md) and Docker-based setup.

Quick Start
