Lessons
Backend Request Lifecycle
Follow an incoming request through routing, validation, business rules, persistence and a response.
API Contracts and Trust Boundaries
Define inputs, outputs and failure semantics before writing framework code.
PROJECT CHECKPOINT
Turn backend fundamentals into evidence
Design the CourseFlow service contract before implementing it.
- Write acceptance criteria for routing before implementation.
- Keep the change small enough that a reviewer can connect it to the intended behavior.
- Use the most direct check available for middleware and save the result.
- Record one decision you would keep and one you would revisit after feedback.
