microservices-best-practices

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a structured approach to building resilient microservices by embedding high-availability patterns, standardized error handling, and governance into the architecture.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Fault-tolerant remote calls: timeouts, retries, and circuit breakers ensure services don't cascade failures.
• Code reuse & modularization: encourages extracting common utilities, clients, and primitives into shared modules.
• Externalized configuration & starter kits: centralized, dynamic config with starter components to accelerate adoption.

Quick Start

Audit an existing microservice against the guidelines, identify at least two repeated patterns to extract into a shared module, and scaffold a starter to simplify reuse.
