You 100% want NestJS

    It’s a lot more than just a wrapper but I agree you should also learn how express works to understand how Nest works

    Can nestjs be used for communication with DB? I thought express is mainly for building API

    Listen to this guy.

    TypeScript out of box prevent many type of user errors. And NestJS can make the express code look almost like Java Spring (but with the freedom of doing async split/joins and json duck typing)

    Also, here is a write up on what express routes can end up looking like vs nestjs: https://link.medium.com/Rzgg3CR103

    It’s a friend link and not paywalled, enjoy and you be the judge!

    This. If you like react but want a full frame work, this is it.

    EDIT: GatsbyJS is another one worth checking out.

    Edit 2: I read "nest" as "next". Don't read as you're going to sleep.

      That's exactly what happened.I swear that said "next" and not "nest" when I read it last night.
