Are there any battle-tested frameworks for building JavaScript microservices atop Node.js runtime? Because I am not quite convinced I should choose developing in plain Node.js over Java alternatives like Spring Boot or Quarkus.

Since I come from Vue.js world, maybe I can imagine (and would even like to try, I guess) deploying a bunch of Nuxt instances with server-part logic implemented. But it still sound a bit silly, as it is obviously more focused on frontend.

The most commonly used framework is express js. It's light weight and you might not even feel that you are using a framework.

Other then that there is fastify, for API development.

And NestJs, this requires a little bit of a learning curve.
