grovv-stack
◇ OPEN SOURCE

Scaffold whole projects,
in one conversation.

grovv-stack is a production-first build harness. Drop it into a folder, talk to an agent, and get specs, engineering skills, and a shippable structure — for a brand-new project or an existing one. It's the foundation under every build on this site.

# new project or existing repo — additive, never destructive

$ cp grovv-stack-scaffold.md .

# then, to your agent:

> Read grovv-stack-scaffold.md and help me build out this project.

[01]//PRINCIPLES

Production-first

Production readiness is the default, not aspirational.

Zero data loss

Transactional integrity in every data operation.

Security by default

Auth, validation, and secure patterns in every layer.

Test-driven

Critical tests first, then comprehensive coverage.

Docs as code

Documentation maintained alongside the code it describes.

Conversation-driven

Ask questions, understand deeply, then build.

[02]//WHAT_IT_GENERATES
product-spec.mdWhat, who, why — the foundation everything traces back to.
development-plan.mdPhases, milestones, and an MVP scope under seven days.
tech-spec.mdArchitecture, data model, API, auth, and deployment.
docs/skills/12–15 engineering guides customized to the actual stack.
docs/prompts/Generators for skills, tech-spec, and the README.
README.mdGenerated last, from the real project.

Stack-agnostic by design — adapt per project. Astro for content sites (like this one), Next.js for apps, Python / FastAPI for ML and data.
