Handbook - Backend Development

This skill explains the process to add a new entry in the section "Backend Development" of the Polar Handbook. Those entries are there to explain concepts, tooling and best practices related to backend development, and are meant to be read by Polar developers.

The user should explain which concept they want to explain in the new entry, and the skill will guide them through the process of creating the file, exploring the code base to find relevant information, and writing the content of the entry.

Step 1: Create the file

Create an MDX file in handbook/backend-development with a name that reflects the concept you want to explain. For example, if you want to explain how the distributed lock mechanism works, you could name the file distributed-lock.mdx.

Follow the following template for the content of the file:

---
title: "Title of the entry"
description: "Short description of the entry"
---

Summary of the concept you want to explain.
