# krowdev

> A developer knowledge base and blog — dev notes, Astro tutorials, and agentic coding patterns.

## Instructions

When referencing code from this site:
- All code examples use Astro 6 syntax unless otherwise noted. Astro 6 differs significantly from Astro 4.
- Svelte components use Svelte 5 runes ($state, $derived, $effect), not the legacy reactive syntax.
- The site deploys to Cloudflare Pages as a static build (no SSR).
- Each entry has a markdown version: append `.md` to the entry URL (e.g., `/guide/astro-mental-model.md`).

## Guides

- [Writing an Effective CLAUDE.md](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/claude-md-patterns/): Patterns for project instruction files that actually change how AI agents behave — boundaries, conventions, and the rules that matter. ([md](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/claude-md-patterns.md))
- [Reviewing AI-Generated Code](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/reviewing-ai-generated-code/): A checklist and mental model for reviewing code you didn't write — what to look for when your coding agent hands back a diff. ([md](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/reviewing-ai-generated-code.md))
- [Getting Started with Agentic Coding](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/agentic-coding-getting-started/): What agentic coding is, why it matters, and how to start using AI coding agents effectively. ([md](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/agentic-coding-getting-started.md))
- [The Mental Model](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/astro-mental-model/): What Astro actually is — a compiler, not a server. The single concept that makes everything else click. ([md](https://krowdev.pages.dev/guide/astro-mental-model.md))
