I’m somewhat new to Node, and I’ve been learning how to use Express, TypeORM, and I’ve recently discovered NestJS (which seems like it would be a great addition to my tools). I’m used to seeing in the quickstart guides for these frameworks a project scaffolding command like the following
NestJS
nest new project-name
TypeORM
npx typeorm init --name MyProject --database postgres
and others.
Judging that it would be easier to add Express routing after having a TypeORM prepped project, I added routing to an existing TypeORM project rather than adding TypeORM features to an existing project. I figure I could probably add NestJS to my existing project, but NestJS seems to be a higher level framework, so maybe it would be less pain to start there and add existing code to a NestJS project.
Thoughts?
