Working with Code Assistants: The Skeleton Architecture
Prevent AI-generated tech debt with Skeleton Architecture. This approach separates human-governed infrastructure (Skeleton) from AI-generated logic (Tissue) using Vertical Slices and Dependency Inversion. By enforcing security and flow control in rigid base classes, you constrain the AI to safe boundaries, enabling high velocity without compromising system integrity.

Spec Driven Development: When Architecture Becomes Executable
Spec-Driven Development inverts traditional architecture by making specifications executable and authoritative. It transforms declared intent into validated code through AI generation and provides architectural determinism. It eliminates drift through continuous enforcement, but demands new engineering discipline in schema design and contract-first reasoning.

Evaluating Kotlin Multiplatform: Benefits and Trade-Offs in Cross-Platform Development
KMP is emerging as an alternative for cross-platform development, offering a path to share code without sacrificing the performance and feel of a native application. KMP comes with its own set of trade-offs and this article dives deep into those. While it focuses primarily on Android and iOS, KMP can be used to build desktop, web, and server-side applications, all from the same shared logic.
