  • You need to improve the scalability or maintainability of an existing backend system.

Key capabilities

  • Project structure templates for modular development.
  • Best practices for routing, middleware usage, and API design.
  • Performance optimization techniques like caching and load balancing.
  • Dependency management strategies using npm/yarn.

Example prompts

  • "How should I organize my Node.js project for scalability?"
