Nest.js Starter Kit

This starter kit provides a foundation for building scalable and maintainable server-side applications using Nest.js. It is designed to seamlessly integrate with Prisma Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) libraries for efficient data handling.

Features

• Nest.js Framework: Utilizes the robust Nest.js framework for building scalable applications with TypeScript.
• Prisma ORM Integration: Seamless integration with Prisma ORM for efficient database operations.
• Custom Exception Handling: Implemented custom exceptions to handle errors gracefully.
• Router Module: the route path for a handler is determined by concatenating the (optional) prefix declared for the controller.
• Exception Filters: Added exception filters to centralize error handling and enhance application robustness.
• Custom Decorators: Included custom decorator functions to extend functionality and simplify common tasks.
