A Yeoman generator that scaffolds RESTful API projects using Node.js, Express, and Mongoose. It generates customizable boilerplate with optional user authentication, social login, validation, tests, and API docs.

Use cases

  • scaffold a rest api with node and express
  • generate mongoose crud endpoints
  • bootstrap an express mongodb api boilerplate
  • add user registration and social login to an api
  • generate a new api endpoint in an existing project
  • set up jest tests for an express api

When to choose

  • starting a new Express + MongoDB REST API from scratch
  • you want opinionated RESTful best practices and validation out of the box
  • you need optional auth, social login, and password reset endpoints generated for you

When to avoid

  • your stack is not Node.js/Express/Mongoose
  • you prefer manually structuring your project or using a different framework
  • you need an actively evolving generator with frequent updates
