Treat Frappe backend work as a Python-first system with important JavaScript touchpoints.
Cover:
- controllers and document lifecycle methods
- hooks
- whitelisted methods
- scheduler jobs and background work
- patches and migrations
- server scripts when they are the right layer
- report backends
- client-to-server API contracts
Principles:
- prefer framework APIs over ad hoc patterns
- keep imports clean and explicit
- use permissions deliberately
- separate document logic, service logic, and integration logic
- avoid accidental public APIs
Before writing code, decide whether the request should instead be handled by:
- `Custom Field`
- `Property Setter`
- `Client Script`
- `Server Script`
- `Workflow`
- `Report`
- `Workspace`
