Hi Forge Rookies,

I know when you’re getting started on Forge it can be really helpful to have sample applications that show you how to do certain tasks.

So what Forge sample app would you like to see?

Hi @mpaisley
I’d like to see a Bitbucket Forge sample app that demonstrates REST API latency best practices - specifically how to leverage caching, pagination, or batching to optimize performance, and implement retries for slow or failing requests.
Thanks!

@mpaisley I would love to see a sample app that doesn’t focus on what you can do with Forge but instead that would focus on how you can make any app ready for the real world.

  • best structure code,
  • reuse types, common code, possibly in a separate (npm) package
  • make the Resolvers and invoke type safe,
  • type safety in general
  • how to implement common patterns like permission checks, but do is so there is limited impact in the UI
  • how to best add CI/CD to the mix, including supporting multiple app major version deployments because admins are just slow in adopting new major versions

I would like Atlassian to import some of the Labs apps you have into the docs so people can see not only how an app was built, but how it is being updated to handle changes like deprecations and platform shifts. Sample apps are fine for a point in time, but seeing the evolution is valuable.

I’d love to see a sample app of a custom field which has its value nicely horizontally aligned with its label :winking_face_with_tongue:
