Why I Choose NestJS
By Raymond Perez ยท
NestJS is a Node.js framework built with TypeScript for server side applications. Its main advantages are a clear module based structure, dependency injection, TypeScript support, and testing tools for common backend work. Common tradeoffs include a steeper learning curve and more boilerplate than lighter frameworks. I choose NestJS when a project benefits from consistent architecture and room to grow.
