For example, I suppose that to be a self-proclaimed full-stack developer in JavaScript, you have to know at least one front-end framework (like Vue, React, Angular, Svelte, Astro etc...), know the basics of the backend and its specificities, especially Node.js and all its aspects, know one or more frameworks (I think of Express.js or Fastify), know how to create an API and databases, and know the principle of MVC in order to set up a good architecture.

nodejs.dev: Nodejs.org website Added a simple GitHub action to sync auto-generated docs daily, and added prettier formatting for .yml files

the Tutorial at nodejs.dev explains how node works and how it's different from other JS environments. They also have a version of the API docs which I find has better formatting than the one at nodejs.com

https://nodejs.dev/

I think this has been fixed here https://github.com/nodejs/nodejs.dev/pull/2713/files

Probably just pending release

I believe https://nodejs.dev/ is a third party site not officially related to the Node.js project.

Strapi is the leading open-source headless Content Management System (CMS). It is 100% Javascript, based on Node.js, and used to build RESTful APIs and GraphQL.

NestJS is a Node.js framework for building server-side applications. NestJS supports typescript out of the box. On the other hand, Passport is an authentication middleware for Node.js that supports over 500 authentication strategies, e.g., username and password, google, Facebook, etc.

Immerse yourself in the official Create React App documentation for a deeper understanding.

Create React App (https://create-react-app.dev/)

- And ofc, there are some templates/frameworks that bring something of that together (https://create-react-app.dev/; maybe https://vitejs.dev/) - google for templates.

I recommend finding some friend with modern experience or at least some youtube tutorials or at least some learning course. That would help you to catch up on the best way to bootstrap your first project. Then you can practice.

What's the connection?

Also, take a look at this response from 2021: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/discussions/117...

Create React App Documentation

Inside the react-tutorial-app folder, to create a new React project runs the following command using create-react-appand for more details on how create-react-app works and other staff, please visit the official website: https://create-react-app.dev/
