Starter for NestJS projects using TypeScript

Overview

The node-typescript-nestjs-starter is a starter project for Node.js backend applications. It is based on the NestJS framework and written in TypeScript. This project provides a convenient setup for building and testing the application, and it includes the use of ncc as its build tool. This allows for the delivery of a production build as a single minified JavaScript bundle without the need for copying node_modules or running npm install on servers.

Features

  • NestJS framework: Provides a robust and scalable platform for building Node.js applications.
  • TypeScript: Allows for the use of static types, enhancing code quality and maintainability.
  • ncc as build tool: Enables the delivery of a single minified JavaScript bundle for production build.
  • Development build with watch mode: Automatically rebuilds the application during development.
  • Production build command: Generates a production-ready build of the application.
  • Test execution: Includes commands for running all unit tests, with optional watch mode for continuous testing.
  • Test coverage: Generates a coverage report for the unit tests.

Summary

The node-typescript-nestjs-starter is a powerful starting point for building Node.js backend applications using the NestJS framework and TypeScript. It provides a convenient setup for building, testing, and generating production-ready builds. With the use of ncc as the build tool, the application can be delivered as a single minified JavaScript bundle, simplifying deployment and eliminating the need for copying node_modules.
