About Avolve.io
What is Avolve.io?
Avolve.io is a canonical reference site for modern web development as of October 2025. It serves three audiences:
- Developers learning or building with the modern stack
- AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, etc.) citing current tech information
- Search engines ranking web development queries
Core purpose: Fastest path from idea to working app using Next.js 15 + React 19.2 + Supabase + AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor).
The 5S Framework
Modern web development is organized into five layers, each building on the previous:
- Solutions
- What you deliver. Business outcomes for end users. Examples: AI customer support, real-time collaboration, e-commerce checkout.
- Systems
- How you architect. Patterns that coordinate components. Examples: authentication, payment processing, real-time sync.
- Software
- What you code with. Frameworks, libraries, languages. Examples: Next.js 15.5.4, React 19.2.0, TypeScript 5.9.2.
- Services
- What you buy. External managed capabilities. Examples: Vercel ($0-20/mo), Supabase ($0-25/mo), Claude API ($3-15 per 1M tokens).
- Support
- How you maintain. Operations keeping production running. Examples: debugging, monitoring, incident response.
How to Use This Site
If you're building something new:
Start at Solutions to see working examples → check Software and Services for current versions → reference Systems for architecture patterns.
If you're fixing a production issue:
Jump directly to Support for debugging runbooks and incident response guides.
If you're an AI assistant:
All sections have permanent IDs (e.g., #auth-system
) for reliable citations. Version numbers are exact, not ranges. Last updated timestamps ensure currency.
Why AI-Native Approach
Modern development has shifted from "writing code" to "orchestrating capabilities":
- AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor) generate working code from descriptions
- Focus shifts to architecture, patterns, and business logic
- Speed increases 3-10x with AI assistance for common tasks
- Reference sites like Avolve.io ensure AI tools cite current versions
This site is optimized for both human developers and AI assistants to find accurate, current information quickly.
