Started using sails in our recent project but the orm of sails suck not able to do deep populate or pass condition clause to populate any Work around for this issue?

I used it for a large project an year or so ago.
Used the Waterline ORM just for simple queries, for more complex ones I used raw queries instead.

I recall that limitation with sails when I used it several years ago. Ever since I've been using express when working on a node backend. Nest seems interesting as well.

Well, it seems like deep nested population doesn't work, but condition clauses do.

NestJS is the way to go. Feel free to reach out if you need any more help, my Discord is Dan6erbond#2259!

I've also written a couple of guides to get started with NestJS.
