Nest.js: A Progressive Node.js Framework

by Jay Bell (ii), Greg Magolan, David Guijarro

JavaScript frameworks go in and out of style very quickly as web technologies change and grow. Nest.js is a good starting point for many developers that are looking to use a modern web framework because it uses a language that is very similar to that of the most used language on the web to this day, JavaScript. Nest.js also uses TypeScript, which is a language that provides the simplicity and power of JavaScript with the type safety of other languages you may be used to. The type safety in Nest.js is only available at compile time, because the Nest.js server is compiled to a Node.js Express server that runs JavaScript. This is still a major advantage, however, since it allows you to better design programs error free prior to runtime. With this how-to you will be up and running, creating your own Nest.js apps in no time.

Low quality attempt to reproduce few chapters of the official nest.js documentation. Chaotic organisation of the content. Lots of duplicates. Pure language. No personal experience shared. Not worth spending time at all.
