Backend Development

mrgoonie/claudekit-skills

Covers the full backend stack from API design (REST, GraphQL, gRPC) through security (OAuth 2.1, OWASP Top 10) to deployment (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD). The reference docs include detailed comparisons of languages and frameworks, plus specific guidance on authentication, performance optimization, and microservices patterns. What I appreciate is the practical decision matrix and the 70-20-10 testing pyramid recommendation, which cuts through the usual "it depends" non-answers. Use this when you need to make concrete technology choices or implement production-grade patterns rather than just getting code to work locally. The 2025 security and performance benchmarks are genuinely useful.

Backend Development Skill

Production-ready backend development with modern technologies, best practices, and proven patterns.

When to Use

  • Designing RESTful, GraphQL, or gRPC APIs
  • Building authentication/authorization systems
  • Optimizing database queries and schemas
  • Implementing caching and performance optimization
  • OWASP Top 10 security mitigation
  • Designing scalable microservices
  • Testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E)
