Typescript NodeJS Server Boilerplate

This is a project to deploy a Typescript based Node server. Whole stack is in TypeScript, giving you the advantage to code in one single language throughout your development.

Prerequisites

1. Install "Node.js" (https://nodejs.org)
2. Package manager i.e. NPM or YARN
3. From project root folder install all the dependencies: npm i or yarn i

Run

Development mode with files watching

Using "concurrently", TypeScript compiler and Express server are initiated. Default PORT is 4466, however you can change it in the .env file.

** If using NPM ** npm run start

** If using YARN ** yarn run start

With the help of nodemon, any changes done in the server, will automatically trigger server to restart to show the latest updates.

Testing Server

1. Using POSTMAN: Create a GET request -> http:localhost:4466/api/test -> Hit Send

2. Using BROWSER: In URL bar, enter http:localhost:4466/api/test -> Hit Enter

If you see following response, then all worked👍

{"route":"/api/test","status":"success"}

Feel free to fork and push changes, I'll be more than happy to see any advancements. Happy Developing your next project.
