Nest.js recently announced the release of version 6<\/a> of their TypeScript framework. Nest.js<\/a>\n 6 improves support for GraphQL and also decouples the platform-specific\n portions of their framework to support applications beyond their \ntraditional Express and Node.js based architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kamil Mysliwiec, creator of Nest.js and co-founder of Trilon.io, explains the changes in Nest.js 6 with GraphQL:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most common problems with GraphQL applications is a types \nredundancy. In order to solve this problem, in the previous version of \nNest, we have added a compiler that allows you to compile definitions \nwritten in SDL to the TypeScript interfaces (or classes). With 6.0.0, \nNest has been integrated with an amazingtype-graphql<\/code>\n package which lets you generate your GraphQL files using only \nTypeScript decorators! Now you can choose which approach is a better fit\n for your requirements\u200a\u2014\u200athey are both available in the @nestjs\/graphql<\/code> package.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Another significant change with version 6 is Nest.js’ move beyond its\n primary focus as a server-side framework to being a more flexible and \ngeneral purpose framework. Mysliwiec explains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Platform independence makes it possible to create reusable logical \nparts that developers can use within different types of applications. \nWith Nest, you can easily build a web application, CLI, a jobs queue or \nanything else you can think of!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Current plans for the next major of Nest.js include rewriting the Nest.js Swagger module<\/a>\n to leverage the TypeScript AST to reduce decorator support and add \nsupport for generics, interfaces, circular-dependencies, and the \ngeneration of auto-response schemas. The Nest.js team also plans to \nimprove the DevOps workflow for supporting and deploying to serverless \nenvironments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For server-side applications, Nest.js leverages HTTP Server frameworks like Express<\/a> and Fastify<\/a> and provides easy integration with a variety of third-party modules such as TypeORM<\/a>.\n Nest.js provides a wide variety of architecture patterns and decorators\n including controllers, routing, providers, middleware, guards, and \ninterceptors. Nest.js provides an inversion of controller (IoC) \ncontainer architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users of Nest.js looking to migrate to version 6 should follow the Nest.js migration guide<\/a>. Developers new to Nest.js should follow the Nest.js getting started guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
