Key Workflows

1. New Project Setup

Time: 30 minutes for complete setup

1. Generate Project Structure - Scaffold with optimal tech stack

   # Create project
   python scripts/project_scaffolder.py my-app --type nextjs-graphql
   

2. Configure Environment - Setup environment variables, database connection

   cd my-app
   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env with configuration
   

3. Start Development Services - Launch Docker containers

   docker-compose up -d
   

4. Run Database Migrations - Initialize database schema

   npm run migrate
   

5. Start Development Server - Begin development

   npm run dev
   

See architecture-patterns.md for architecture guidance.

2. Code Quality Assessment

Time: 15-20 minutes for full analysis

1. Run Comprehensive Analysis - Analyze entire codebase

   python scripts/code_quality_analyzer.py ./
   

2. Review Recommendations - Prioritize issues by severity
3. Fix Security Vulnerabilities - Update dependencies

   npm audit fix
   

4. Fix Linting Errors - Automated fixes where possible

   npm run lint -- --fix
   

5. Run Test Suite - Ensure all tests pass

   npm test
   

6. Build for Production - Verify production build succeeds

   npm run build
   

7. Re-analyze - Verify improvements

   python scripts/code_quality_analyzer.py ./ --json > quality-report.json
   

3. Production Deployment

Time: 1-2 hours for initial deployment

1. Quality Checks - Ensure tests and build pass

   npm test && npm run build
   

2. Build Docker Image - Create production container

   docker build -t my-app:latest .
   

3. Deploy with Docker Compose - Production deployment

   docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
   

   Or deploy to Kubernetes:

   kubectl apply -f k8s/
   

4. Verify Deployment - Health check and smoke tests

   curl https://your-app.com/health
   

5. Monitor - Setup logging and monitoring dashboards

See best-practices.md for deployment best practices.
