Changing PHP echo json_encode() into a Javascript equivalent?
If you need to send them a fully-runnable server, something that can be executed and that can listen for incoming HTTP requests, then you probably want something like Express.js, which is a Node HTTP server framework. Serverside JS isn't like PHP in that the actual HTTP request/response flow is abstracted away from you; you have to actually handle it yourself.

String Literals in JavaScript: Should I Use Double-quotes or Single-quotes?
Looking at some popular JavaScript projects on GitHub, I noted that react, moment, and express all use single quotes for strings. However, another popular project, tslib, uses double quotes ๐. So, while it would seem that single quotes is more common, this metric is not entirely conclusive.

Is it possible to call a cli tool from node using variables passed from the frontend?
You would have to start a HTTP server (Make one easily ExpressJS or Fastify). You can refer to their documentation on how to setup a route (GET with query parameters or POST with a JSON body is fine for recieving information from the frontend) which when called, will execute code (This is your backend code, meaning you can execute CLI commands and so on).

Serving static files with Node.JS
Express.js, with its long-lived version 4 is famous for its somewhat low performance. Other projects like fastify or polka have benchmarks outperforming Express.js. I donโt know why Express is slower, maybe because of regex processing of routes? If youโre using parametric routes like /users/:userid/entity and have no regexp routes, then replacing Express.js with fastify or polka will add a performance boost to your app. They are not direct replacements, but you can convert code if you really need that boost. In the article below benchmarks shows huge improvement, but in reality, your code will be a limiting factor to your app performance, and you are unlikely notice any improvement.

Fully featured Repository Pattern with Typescript and native PostgreSQL driver
I suggest to start explain how it is work in real project from main.ts file. For routing I like to use fastify. But for example we will use architecture with repositories > handlers layers. For real project you need to use repositories > services > handlers layers for easier code maintainability in future. All repository calls need to be proxied by services, no direct calls repositories in handlers must not be.
