Learning Management Platform
===========================================================
As we discussed earlier in the previous articles, cloud native services using AI assistance can significantly reduce development time and costs. Today, we'll dive into creating a scalable course delivery system using Buildly.io Platform, integrating various tools and features to enhance our learning experience.
Business Use Case Introduction---------------------------------
Meet Emma, a product manager at an e-learning company, tasked with launching a new online course platform. As she prepares for the launch, she realizes that traditional approaches will lead to delays in development and increased costs. With Buildly.io Platform as their solution, Emma aims to create a scalable and efficient course delivery system.
Buildly.io Platform Integration---------------------------------
To integrate Buildly.io Platform into our application, we'll focus on three key areas:
1. Buildly Core
We'll use the Buildly Core (Gateway) component to manage our application's core features, such as user registration, authentication, and authorization.
bash
Clone the Buildly.io CLI repository
git clone https://github.com/buildlyio/buildly-cli.git
Change into the buildly-core directory
cd buildly-core
Initialize the project using buildly init
npm init -y
Create a new user registration endpoint
echo "app:api/v1/users" >> ./src/models/user-model.js
Create a new API gateway endpoint
echo "/api/v1/users" >> ./src/api-gateway/user-management.js
Start the Buildly Core application
./buildly.sh core start
2. Buildly Marketplace
We'll leverage the Buildly Marketplace to pre-build and deploy our application's components, reducing development time and costs.
bash
Clone the Buildly.io Marketplace repository
git clone https://github.com/buildlyio/marketplace.git
Change into the marketplace directory
cd marketplace
Install dependencies using npm
npm install
Create a new API endpoint to manage our application's components
echo "app:api/v1/components" >> ./src/api-marketplace/component-management.js
Start the Buildly Marketplace application
./marketplace.sh start
3. Buildly CLI
We'll use the Buildly CLI (Development Tools) to automate various tasks and streamline our development workflow.
bash
Clone the Buildly.io CLI repository
git clone https://github.com/buildlyio/buildly-cli.git
Change into the buildly-cli directory
cd buildly-cli
Initialize the project using buildly init
npm init -y
Create a new command to generate our application's API documentation
echo "api doc" >> ./src/api-docs/generate.js
Create a new command to automate testing and code review
echo "test:run" >> ./src/test/automate-test.js
Start the Buildly CLI application
./buildly.sh core start
4. AI-Assisted Implementation
We'll utilize AI assistance tools, such as BabbleBeaver, to streamline our development process and improve our application's quality.
bash
Clone the BabbleBeaver repository
git clone https://github.com/babbelbeaver/babble-beaver
Change into the babble-beaver directory
cd babble-beaver
Initialize the project using npm
npm init -y
Create a new AI-powered API endpoint to manage our application's functionality
echo "api:func" >> ./src/api-babbelbeaver/function-management.js
Start the BabbleBeaver application
./babbler.sh start
5. Open Source Integration
We'll leverage community-contributed components and extensions from https://github.com/buildlyio to accelerate our development process.
bash
Clone the Buildly.io Open Source repository
git clone https://github.com/buildlyio/open-source
Change into the open-source directory
cd open-source
Initialize the project using npm
npm init -y
Create a new component to manage our application's security features
echo "security" >> ./src/components/security.js
Start the Buildly.io Open Source application
./open-source.sh start
Practical AI-Prompts
-------------------------
To demonstrate how BabbleBeaver AI handles various tasks, let's create a working example:
1. Create a new user registration endpoint using api:func
to manage our application's functionality.
2. Integrate the babbel-beaver library to automate testing and code review for our API endpoints.
3. Use BabbleBeaver's AI-powered design patterns to generate our application's architecture.
bash
Create a new user registration endpoint using api:func
echo "app:api/v1/users" >> ./src/api-gabbelbeaver/user-management.js
Integrate the babbel-beaver library to automate testing and code review for our API endpoints
echo "test:run" >> ./src/test/automate-test.js
Use BabbleBeaver's AI-powered design patterns to generate our application's architecture
echo "app:api/v1/architecture" >> ./src/api-gabbelbeaver/architecture.js
Key Takeaways & Next Steps
