Practica
Node.js solution starter boilerplate that is production-ready, packed with best practices and built with simplicity in mind
Overview
Practica.js is a Node.js application generator that focuses on best practices and simplicity. The goal is to provide a production-ready application that incorporates good practices from the start, saving time and preventing mistakes. The generated code includes features like a battle-tested error handler, sanitized API responses, a hardened Dockerfile, a thoughtful folder structure, testing templates with a database, and more. Practica.js aims to keep things simple and standard, based on popular Node.js best practices.
Features
- Best Practices Integration: Integrates best practices on top of known Node.js frameworks.
- Simplicity: Focuses on keeping the application simple, as Node.js was intended.
- Example Code Generation: Generates example code demonstrating a full Microservice flow from API to DB.
- Hardened Solution: Provides a robust solution with a single example component/Microservice and multiple libraries.
- CLI Interactive Mode: Offers a command-line interface for easy generation and customization of applications.
Summary
- Express
Express.js is a simple Node.js framework for single, multi-page, and hybrid web applications.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
