Another option with Node+Express is github.com/TypedProject/ts-express...,
With TSED you don't need to create modules, so with NestJS it forces you to do it, which I don't understand and which makes the image put in Post look bad. Because with the controllers you have to create a module, while with TSED, you don't need that.

The reason for modules is, the framework is heavily inspired by Angular, and I can understand many Javascript developers are not used to such pattern, but it makes structuring large apps really easy.

It would be ideal if NestJS did not force you to create modules, that is to say to have the option to create them or not.
