SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the setup of a development workspace by selecting a tech stack (Python with uv or Node.js with npm/yarn), creating a standard project structure, and configuring version control.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Tech stack auto-detection or explicit selection: Python with uv or Node.js with npm/yarn, including creation of src/ and tests/ with entry points.
  • Git and documentation integration: Initializes a Git repository, applies a tech-stack-specific .gitignore, and generates x-ipe-docs/environment/setup.md.
  • Initial commit and audit trail: Stages and commits all setup files to establish a reproducible baseline.
  • Use Case: You are starting a new Python or Node.js project and want a ready-to-use workspace with a consistent structure and version control.

Quick Start

  1. Provide the desired tech stack or allow automatic detection (Python with uv or Node.js with npm/yarn).
  2. Run the task to initialize package management, create src/ and tests/, and set up Git.
  3. Review the generated setup document at x-ipe-docs/environment/setup.md and commit the initial changes.

What is the best way to initialize a git repository with a .gitignore for a specific tech stack?

Initializing a git repository with a tech-stack-specific .gitignore is handled automatically during the workspace setup, staging all files to establish a reproducible baseline with an initial commit.

How do I start a Python project using uv for environment setup?

Starting a Python project with uv involves selecting the Python tech stack, initializing the uv package manager, scaffolding src/ and tests/ folders, and applying a Python-specific .gitignore file.

Does this development environment setup work with both npm and yarn for Node.js?

Yes, the development environment setup supports Node.js by initializing the workspace with either npm or yarn, creating the standard project structure, and configuring version control accordingly.

Can I automatically generate documentation for my project setup and configuration?

Yes, the workspace setup automatically generates documentation by creating an x-ipe-docs/environment/setup.md file that records the applied configuration and tech stack initialization details.
