"Node.js is one of the most popular server-side platforms, especially for web applications. It gives you non-blocking JavaScript without a browser, plus an enormous ecosystem. That ecosystem is one of Node's chief strengths, making it a go-to option for server development. This article is a quick tour of the most popular web frameworks for server development on Node.js. We'll look at minimalist tools like Express.js, batteries-included frameworks like Nest.js, and full-stack frameworks like Next.js."
"At over 47 million weekly downloads on npm, Express is one of the most-installed software packages of all time-and for good reason. Express gives you basic web endpoint routing and request-and-response handling inside an extensible framework that is easy to understand. Most other frameworks in this category have adopted the basic style of describing a route from Express. This framework is the obvious choice when you simply need to create some routes for HTTP, and you don't mind a DIY approach for anything extra."
Node.js provides non-blocking JavaScript outside the browser and a vast ecosystem that strengthens server development. A variety of web frameworks exists for Node.js, ranging from minimalist tools to batteries-included and full-stack frameworks. Minimalist frameworks like Express, Koa, and Fastify offer essential routing, request handling, and high extensibility for developers preferring a DIY approach. Batteries-included frameworks such as Nest supply more structure and built-in features suited to larger applications. Full-stack frameworks like Next and SvelteKit integrate frontend rendering with server capabilities for streamlined end-to-end web application development. Examples show simple endpoint creation across frameworks.
