A NestJS boilerplate with TypeORM and authentication

Overview

The NestJS boilerplate with authentication and TypeORM offers developers a starting point for building secure and structured web applications. While the potential of this setup used to be enticing, recent feedback suggests that it may not be the best choice currently, given the evolution of better options in Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) tools. Developers are encouraged to consider newer frameworks, like Prisma, which have started to dominate the landscape.

This boilerplate comes equipped with functionalities designed to kickstart your project efficiently, but it requires an understanding of the setup that utilizes environment variables for both development and production purposes. By moving towards more modern tools, developers can ensure that they are implementing the best and most efficient methods available today.

Features

  • Easy Setup: Create essential environment files from provided examples without hassle to get started quickly.
  • Authentication: Built-in authentication features provide a solid foundation for securing your applications.
  • TypeORM Integration: Offers a familiar integration with TypeORM for database management, catering to those accustomed to its structure.
  • Development & Production Configuration: Supports different environments with separate configuration files for development and production settings.
  • Docker Compatibility: Designed with Docker in mind, making it easy to deploy your application in containerized environments.
  • Legacy Support: While outdated, it may still be useful for understanding older architectures and systems.
