Serving static files with Node.JS
10 projects | dev.to | 12 Apr 2022

Take a look at Nest.js web server. When the file serving option is turned on, it not only slows down your app because filesystem checks for every request but also using synchronous fs.stat to check if the file exists.
How do you implement your Front-end build & deploy process?

Alternatively, you can serve your frontend from the backend using serve-static. Note that this doesn't actually require that your frontend source code is nested in the backend source code directory. You are just serving the build files, not the source, so only those build files need to end up in the `nest` directory. Our dev script just peaks a level up (IE `../frontend`), while our deploy GitHub action builds the frontend and moves the files into the backend before building `nest`.
