What an Agent-Ready Next.js Repository Actually Needs

Sep 28, 2026· Software Factories

create-next-app already writes AGENTS.md. What it doesn't give you is a way for an agent to prove its work. Here is the short, tested list: pinned versions, one verify command, unit and browser tests, project rules, and CI that runs the same gate.

Developer Setup

Fast, portable environments for developers and coding agents: editors, repository instructions, containers, and secrets.

Setting Up AI Coding Assistants for Large Multi-Repo Solutions

Dec 17, 2025· Developer Setup

Learn how to configure AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to work effectively across multiple repositories in microservices and micro-frontend architectures. Discover a practical solution that provides full codebase context without requiring a monorepo migration.

When NoSQL is better than a relational database

Jul 9, 2023· Web Apps

Relational databases are known for their reliability, data integrity and ability to optimize queries joining many tables. On the other hand, a NoSQL database may appear very limiting at first. It requires a new mindset to work with NoSQL.

Choosing to be a Monolith, Cloud-Native or Cloud-Agnostic

Apr 4, 2021· Web Apps

Today’s expectations of modern applications are growing and if you think of creating a new application you will have to make lots of decisions that are not related to the problem you’re trying to solve.

.NET Logging in the microservices world

Aug 27, 2019· Web Apps

Logging is one of the central aspects in a Microservices application. Through logging you understand how the application is behaving, which service is causing the others to go down, and what caused a specific error in one of the services. So in the next paragraphs, I’ll go through the lifecycle of adding logging to a microservices application.
