   • Perform smoke tests

Example: Complete User Profile Feature

1. Database Schema (Backend)

// apps/backend/src/database/schema/profiles.schema.ts
export const profiles = pgTable('profiles', {
  id: serial('id').primaryKey(),
  userId: integer('user_id').references(() => users.id).notNull(),
  bio: text('bio'),
  avatar: varchar('avatar', { length: 500 }),
  company: varchar('company', { length: 255 }),
  location: varchar('location', { length: 255 }),
  website: varchar('website', { length: 500 }),
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at').defaultNow(),
  updatedAt: timestamp('updated_at').defaultNow(),
});

2. Backend API (NestJS)

// apps/backend/src/profiles/profiles.controller.ts
@Controller('profiles')
@ApiTags('profiles')
@UseGuards(JwtAuthGuard)
export class ProfilesController {
  constructor(private profilesService: ProfilesService) {}

  @Get('me')
  @ApiOperation({ summary: 'Get current user profile' })
  @ApiResponse({ status: 200, type: ProfileDto })
  async getMyProfile(@Request() req) {
    return this.profilesService.findByUserId(req.user.id);
  }

  @Patch('me')
  @ApiOperation({ summary: 'Update current user profile' })
  @ApiResponse({ status: 200, type: ProfileDto })
  async updateMyProfile(
    @Request() req,
    @Body() dto: UpdateProfileDto
  ) {
    return this.profilesService.update(req.user.id, dto);
  }
}

// DTOs with validation
export class UpdateProfileDto {
  @ApiProperty({ required: false })
  @IsString()
  @IsOptional()
  bio?: string;

  @ApiProperty({ required: false })
  @IsUrl()
  @IsOptional()
  website?: string;

  @ApiProperty({ required: false })
  @IsString()
  @MaxLength(255)
  @IsOptional()
  company?: string;
}

3. Generate API Client

/generate-api-client

4. Frontend Service (Angular)

// apps/frontend/src/app/services/profile.service.ts
import { Injectable, inject, signal } from '@angular/core';
import { ProfilesApi, ProfileDto, UpdateProfileDto } from '@bdqt/api-client';
import { catchError, tap } from 'rxjs';

@Injectable({ providedIn: 'root' })
export class ProfileService {
  private profilesApi = inject(ProfilesApi);

  currentProfile = signal<ProfileDto | null>(null);
  loading = signal(false);

  async loadProfile(): Promise<void> {
    this.loading.set(true);
    try {
      const profile = await this.profilesApi.getMyProfile().toPromise();
      this.currentProfile.set(profile);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Failed to load profile', error);
    } finally {
      this.loading.set(false);
    }
  }

  async updateProfile(dto: UpdateProfileDto): Promise<void> {
    this.loading.set(true);
    try {
      const updated = await this.profilesApi.updateMyProfile(dto).toPromise();
      this.currentProfile.set(updated);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Failed to update profile', error);
      throw error;
    } finally {
      this.loading.set(false);
    }
  }
}

5. Frontend Component (Angular)

// apps/frontend/src/app/pages/profile/profile.component.ts
@Component({
  selector: 'app-profile',
  standalone: true,
  imports: [CommonModule, ReactiveFormsModule],
  templateUrl: './profile.component.html',
  changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
})
export class ProfileComponent implements OnInit {
  profileService = inject(ProfileService);

  form = inject(FormBuilder).nonNullable.group({
    bio: [''],
    company: [''],
    location: [''],
    website: ['', Validators.pattern(/^https?:\/\/.+/)],
  });

  ngOnInit() {
    this.profileService.loadProfile();
    this.profileService.currentProfile.subscribe((profile) => {
      if (profile) {
        this.form.patchValue(profile);
      }
    });
  }

  async onSubmit() {
    if (this.form.invalid) return;
    await this.profileService.updateProfile(this.form.getRawValue());
  }
}
