Architecture & Patterns

Why Patterns Matter for AI Development

Consistent, predictable code isn't just easier to maintain—it's essential for effective AI collaboration.

Service/Repository Pattern

Separate business logic from data access. Services contain rules and validation, repositories handle database operations.

Type-Safe API Routes

All API routes use the createRouteHandler wrapper for consistent authentication and error handling.

Centralized Validation

Zod schemas co-located with services provide runtime type safety and validation.

Type-Safe Database Layer

Drizzle ORM with repository pattern abstracts data access and provides full type safety.
