The Death of Boilerplate
Software Engineering used to involve hours of typing out repetitive boilerplate code—setting up Express servers, connecting to MongoDB, or writing React component skeletons.
With AI, boilerplate is dead. You can generate the scaffolding for an entire application in seconds, allowing you to focus purely on the unique business logic.
The Zero-to-One Prompt
Goal: Generate a complete Node.js backend boilerplate.
Tech Stack: Express, TypeScript, Mongoose, Zod for validation.
Requirements:
1. Create a fully functional user registration endpoint.
2. Include password hashing with bcrypt.
3. Include JWT generation.
Constraint: Do NOT use any deprecated libraries. Ensure all TypeScript types are strictly defined.
