An Express.js starter boilerplate for building RESTful APIs and microservices with Node.js and MongoDB (Mongoose). It bundles authentication, validation, testing, linting, Docker support, and API documentation out of the box.

Use cases

  • scaffold a new express rest api
  • boilerplate for nodejs microservices
  • starter project with mongodb and mongoose
  • express api template with auth and docker
  • quickly start a restful backend in javascript
  • express api with tests and ci preconfigured

When to choose

  • starting a new Node.js REST API with MongoDB from scratch
  • you want auth, validation, testing, and Docker preconfigured
  • building small Express microservices in vanilla JavaScript

When to avoid

  • you use TypeScript or a different database like PostgreSQL
  • you need a maintained, actively updated stack (project is in maintenance mode)
  • you prefer a minimal setup without opinionated tooling
