What this skill does
# Project Scaffolding Wizard Professional-grade project scaffolding comparable to WebStorm/PyCharm project wizards. Creates fully configured projects with SDK setup, framework options, database configuration, linting, and CI/CD. ## Wizard Workflow When a user requests a new project, follow this interactive workflow: ### Step 1: Project Type Selection Present the project type menu. Ask the user to select a category and type: | Category | Types | |----------|-------| | **Static Websites** | HTML/CSS, HTML+Sass, HTML+Tailwind, Landing Page, Multi-page Site | | **Frontend Web** | React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, Svelte, Angular, Astro, Remix, Solid, Qwik, Preact | | **Mobile/Desktop** | React Native, Expo, Flutter, Tauri, Electron, Ionic | | **Backend (JS/TS)** | Express, NestJS, Fastify, Hono, Elysia, tRPC, Koa | | **Backend (Python)** | FastAPI, Django, Django REST, Flask, Litestar | | **Backend (Go)** | Gin, Fiber, Echo, Chi | | **Backend (Rust)** | Axum, Actix, Rocket | | **Backend (Java)** | Spring Boot, Quarkus, Ktor, Micronaut | | **Backend (Other)** | Laravel, Rails, .NET Web API | | **Libraries** | TypeScript NPM, Python PyPI, Go Module, Rust Crate | | **CLI Tools** | Node CLI, Python CLI (Typer/Click), Go CLI (Cobra), Rust CLI (Clap) | | **Extensions** | Chrome Extension, Firefox Extension, VS Code Extension, Figma Plugin, Obsidian Plugin | | **Serverless** | AWS Lambda, Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Functions, Supabase Functions | | **Full-Stack** | T3 Stack, MERN, PERN, MEAN | | **Monorepos** | Turborepo, Nx Workspace, pnpm Workspace | ### Step 2: Basic Configuration Gather for ALL projects: - **Project name** (required) - **Location/directory** - **Description** - **Author name** - **License** (MIT, Apache-2.0, GPL-3.0, ISC, Unlicense) ### Step 3: Framework-Specific Options Load `references/wizard-options.md` for detailed configuration options based on the selected project type. Key decisions include: - **Language/SDK version** - Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, Java versions - **Package manager** - npm, pnpm, yarn, bun, poetry, uv - **CSS framework** - Tailwind, CSS Modules, Styled Components - **State management** - Zustand, Redux, Jotai, TanStack Query - **Database/ORM** - PostgreSQL, SQLite, Prisma, SQLAlchemy, sqlc - **Authentication** - NextAuth, JWT, OAuth2 - **Testing** - Vitest, Jest, pytest, Playwright ### Step 4: Code Quality & DevOps - **Linting** - ESLint, Ruff, golangci-lint, clippy - **Formatting** - Prettier, Ruff, gofmt, rustfmt - **Pre-commit hooks** - husky + lint-staged, pre-commit framework - **CI/CD** - GitHub Actions, GitLab CI - **Docker** - Dockerfile (multi-stage), docker-compose - **Deployment** - Vercel, Railway, Fly.io, AWS, self-hosted ### Step 5: Generate Project Use `scripts/scaffold.py` or native CLI tools to create the project structure. ## CLI Integration Prefer native CLI tools when available: | Framework | CLI Command | |-----------|-------------| | Next.js | `npx create-next-app@latest` | | React (Vite) | `npm create vite@latest -- --template react-ts` | | Vue | `npm create vue@latest` | | Nuxt | `npx nuxi@latest init` | | Astro | `npm create astro@latest` | | Remix | `npx create-remix@latest` | | SvelteKit | `npm create svelte@latest` | | Solid | `npm create solid@latest` | | Expo | `npx create-expo-app@latest` | | React Native | `npx @react-native-community/cli init` | | Flutter | `flutter create` | | Tauri | `npm create tauri-app@latest` | | NestJS | `npx @nestjs/cli new` | | Spring Boot | `spring init` or start.spring.io | | Go | `go mod init` | | Rust | `cargo new` | | Chrome Ext | `npm create plasmo@latest` | | T3 Stack | `npx create-t3-app@latest` | ## Quick Start Examples ### HTML/CSS Website ```bash mkdir my-website && cd my-website touch index.html style.css # Or use boilerplate: npx degit h5bp/html5-boilerplate my-website ``` ### HTML + Tailwind (CDN) ```html <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <title>My Website</title> <script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script> </head> <body class="bg-gray-100"> <h1 class="text-3xl font-bold">Hello World</h1> </body> </html> ``` ### T3 Stack (Next.js + tRPC + Prisma) ```bash npx create-t3-app@latest my-app ``` ### Expo (React Native) ```bash npx create-expo-app@latest my-app --template tabs ``` ### Tauri Desktop App ```bash npm create tauri-app@latest my-app -- --template react-ts ``` ### Chrome Extension ```bash npm create plasmo@latest my-extension ``` ## Example Conversations ### Simple HTML/CSS Website ``` User: Create a simple website with HTML and CSS Claude: I'll create a static HTML/CSS website: - Multi-page (Home, About, Contact) - Mobile-first responsive CSS - BEM naming convention - Live Server for development Structure: my-website/ ├── index.html ├── about.html ├── contact.html ├── css/style.css ├── js/main.js └── images/ Shall I create this? ``` ### Mobile App ``` User: Create a mobile app for iOS and Android Claude: I recommend Expo for the easiest setup: - TypeScript - Expo Router (file-based navigation) - NativeWind (Tailwind for RN) - Tab navigation template Ready to scaffold? ``` ### Full-Stack with Type Safety ``` User: Create a full-stack app with type-safe API Claude: I recommend the T3 Stack: - Next.js 14 (App Router) - tRPC (type-safe API) - Prisma (type-safe ORM) - Tailwind CSS - NextAuth.js - PostgreSQL with docker-compose This gives you full type safety from database to frontend! ``` ### Chrome Extension ``` User: Build a Chrome extension Claude: What features do you need? - Popup UI - Content script (modifies pages) - Background service worker - Side panel Tech stack: React + Vite + TypeScript + Manifest V3 I recommend using Plasmo framework for easier development. ``` ## Available Resources Load reference files based on what you need: | Resource | When to Load | Purpose | |----------|--------------|---------| | `references/wizard-options.md` | During Step 3 (gathering user preferences) | Configuration choices and defaults for each framework | | `references/frameworks.md` | When generating code | Project structures, code examples, configuration files | | `references/best-practices.md` | For architecture decisions | Directory organization, naming conventions, patterns | | `scripts/scaffold.py` | For custom scaffolding | Python engine when CLI tools aren't suitable | **Workflow:** 1. Present options from `wizard-options.md` to gather user preferences 2. Use `frameworks.md` for code patterns and project structure when generating 3. Consult `best-practices.md` for architecture decisions ## Default Recommendations | Category | Recommendation | |----------|----------------| | JS Runtime | Node.js 22 LTS | | Package Manager | pnpm | | Python Version | 3.12 | | Go Version | 1.23 | | Rust Edition | 2021 | | Java Version | 21 LTS | | CSS Framework | Tailwind CSS | | State (React) | Zustand + TanStack Query | | ORM (Node) | Prisma | | ORM (Python) | SQLAlchemy 2.0 | | ORM (Go) | sqlc | | Testing (JS) | Vitest | | Testing (Python) | pytest | | E2E Testing | Playwright | | Linting (JS) | ESLint + Prettier | | Linting (Python) | Ruff | | CI/CD | GitHub Actions | | Containerization | Multi-stage Dockerfile |

This skill should be used when the user asks to "build a brand library / brand kit / press kit / brand assets" for a product, "set up a brand library workflow," "create a positioning manifesto plus visual identity," or any combination of brand documentation + visual asset pipeline. Apply phase-by-phase or run end-to-end. Templates are product-agnostic and use {{TOKEN}} placeholders the skill prompts the user to fill.
writing-tech-post
IncludedAuthors engineering blog posts end-to-end: launch deep-dives, incident postmortems, architecture migrations, performance case studies, tutorials, AI/agent system writeups, security disclosures, and research-to-product translations. Picks the correct archetype, plans the abstraction ladder, enforces an evidence cadence (diagrams, benchmarks, profiles, traces, code, ablations), tunes voice against publisher house styles (Datadog, Vercel, GitHub, AWS, Meta, Cloudflare, Jane Street), and runs a pre-publish gate for narrative momentum and disclosure ethics. Use when drafting a new engineering post, restructuring a draft that feels flat, deciding which evidence form belongs where, validating that depth and product context are balanced, or preparing a postmortem, migration, or performance narrative for external publication. Do not use for API reference documentation, README authoring, marketing copy, release notes, generic SEO content, ghost-written executive thought leadership, or non-engineering long-form essays.
