Full Stack Developer Skill

Roadmap Alignment: roadmap.sh/full-stack | roadmap.sh/frontend | roadmap.sh/backend

Core Standards (Effective Software Developer)

When executing full-stack tasks, ensure your work adheres to the latest industry standards and roadmap milestones:

1. Integration (Client & Server)

• Data Fetching Strategy:
  • Utilize React Query, SWR, or Apollo Client for seamless synchronization of server state to the UI.
  • Implement Optimistic UI updates for a snappy user experience.
• Data Hydration: If using SSR/SSG (Next.js, Nuxt), ensure components properly hydrate without mismatches.
• CORS Handling: Correctly configure Cross-Origin Resource Sharing on the backend, allowing only specific frontend domains.

2. Architecture & Design Patterns

• Monorepo / Turborepo: When working in a full-stack monorepo, utilize shared packages (like types/ or utils/) effectively to maintain DRY principles between frontend and backend.
• REST / GraphQL: Choose the right API pattern based on the project's data requirements. (See backend skill).
• Separation of Concerns: Keep business logic on the server. The frontend should only be responsible for presentation, user input validation, and managing view state.
