ActionHero VS KeystoneJS

ActionHero.js is one of the most well-known API frameworks. It will help you quickly develop scalable and reusable Node.js API servers for your projects. ActionHero acts as a toolkit that will allow you to build such API servers that will initially work together with existing applications and platforms. With tens of thousands of users, you can always find the right answers and ideas to ensure a daily efficient workflow with ActionHero.

Two of the major components of the @grouparoo/core application are a Node.js API server and a React frontend. We use Actionhero as the API server, and Next.JS for our React site generator. As we develop the Grouparoo application, we are constantly adding new API endpoints and changing existing ones.

At Grouparoo, we use Actionhero as our Node.js API server and Sequelize for our Object Relational Mapping (ORM) tool - making it easy to work with complex records from our database. Within our Actions and Tasks, we often want to treat the whole execution as a single database transaction - either all the modifications to the database will succeed or fail as a unit. This is really helpful when a single activity may create or modify many database rows.

Hard to say without knowing /what/ you want to accomplish in your CI process, so maybe some open source examples will help:

* A "complex" library (node-resque). In CI (CircleCI) we install deps, compile Typescript to JS, test on 3 versions of node, and build docs. 4 min w/ some parallelization https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/actionhero/node-re...

* A web server framework (actionhero): In CI(Github Actions) we install deps, compile Typescript to JS, test on 3 versions of node, and build docs. 7 min w/ some parallelization https://github.com/actionhero/actionhero/actions/runs/801273...

* A Monorepo (Grouparoo): In CI (CircleCI) we install deps, compile Typescript to JS, run migrations, check licenses, test UIs, CLI tools, Plugins, and try out a few different databases. 5 minutes with rather extreme parallelization https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/grouparoo/grouparo...

Websockets are the answer. Checkout https://www.actionherojs.com/ for a framework that works great as game server.

Keystone 6: The GraphQL Behemoth

Also, there are lots of exciting web frameworks that use Prisma as their default ORM layer (like RedwoodJS which is built by the founder of GitHub, Amplication which recently raised $6.6M in seed funding, Wasp (YC W21) or KeystoneJS) which should give you some more validation that Prisma is being used in a lot production applications :)

KeystoneJS https://keystonejs.com

https://keystonejs.com/ is a nice smaller alternative.

Keystone.js is a content management system and framework for creating server-side applications that interact with a database. It is based on the Express platform for Node.js and uses MongoDB for data storage. It is an alternative to CMS for web developers who want to create a data-driven website, but do not want to move to the PHP platform or too large systems such as WordPress.

I have a website I've built in nextjs frontend using keystonejs as a cms written in node.

I have a working graphql server written in Keystone CMS and hosted on Heroku.

Even you can use WordPress through their API, I would recommend you to try KeystoneJsKeystone Js CMS, as others suggested before, there are several headless CMSs but Keystone is totally free, open source and self hosted, you can even deploy on vercel. take a look

The most ok alternative would probably be something like Keystone.
