The Problem with Project-Specific Knowledge
Consider a typical React team.
One developer learns:
How to create forms.
Another learns:
How to integrate APIs.
Another learns:
How state management works.
Most of this knowledge never becomes organizational knowledge. It stays inside people's heads. When developers leave knowledge leaves with them.
success
Skill-Driven Development captures organizational knowledge.
Mini Exercise
Think of one important implementation detail that currently lives only in team memory.
Write down how that knowledge could be captured as a named skill.
Example
If only one developer knows how authentication forms are built, that knowledge could become:
authentication-form-skill.md
covering:
- field structure
- validation
- API flow
- state handling
