Recently, I've been developing template projects that showcase industry best practices for both front-end development with TypeScript and React, and back-end development with Spring and Java 21+. As coding agents become increasingly common in software development, maintaining strong design standards is more important than ever. Poor architectural or design decisions can spread through a codebase quicker than ever before, making them far more difficult to identify and remove later.
