## What it is
A NestJS project structure template providing an opinionated folder layout and configuration for building Node.js backend applications with TypeORM, authentication, and GraphQL support. It serves as a starting boilerplate following NestJS official documentation recommendations.

## Use cases
- start a new nestjs backend project
- nestjs project folder structure example
- boilerplate for nestjs with typeorm
- how to organize a nestjs application
- nestjs starter with auth and graphql
- template for nodejs typescript api project

## When to choose
- starting a new NestJS backend project and wanting a proven folder structure
- learning how to organize modules, entities, guards, and interceptors in NestJS
- you want a TypeORM-based NestJS setup with env configuration and testing preconfigured

## When to avoid
- you prefer a different ORM like Prisma, Drizzle, or MikroORM out of the box
- you need a production application rather than a reference structure to build from
- your stack is not Node.js/NestJS

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: web-framework, orm, auth, api-framework, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, backend, developer-tools, apis
- platform: cross-platform
