Nest
A progressive Node.js framework for building efficient, scalable, and enterprise-grade server-side applications with TypeScript/JavaScript 🚀
Project mention: How to Build a Fullstack AI Agent with LangGraphJS and NestJS (Using Agent Initializr) | dev.to | 2025-06-17Coming from a background in large-scale Java systems with Spring Boot, I’ve learned to appreciate the value of a well-structured framework. NestJS brings that same level of organization and scalability to the TypeScript ecosystem, something often undervalued when choosing a backend framework.

Project mention: Handling custom error responses from ExpressoTS with TanStack Query, and NextJS | dev.to | 2024-09-05Building robust web applications often means handling errors in ways that keep users informed without breaking their experience. In this blog, I'll walk you through how I’ve integrated custom error handling in CookieDeck using ExpressoTS, TanStack Query (formerly known as React Query), and Next.js. In this example, we will look at how I leverage custom error responses from ExpressoTS and TanStack Query to load a page based on what type of response I get.

Project mention: Show HN: Nebula – A DSL for scripting TestContainers-based demos | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-03-04Hey HN,
I'm Marty, founder of Orbital[0]—a semantic data integration platform.
As we've been demo'ing Orbital to people, we kept hitting a common challenge: when people evaluate Orbital, they need a demo to play with. But since Orbital is all about integration, those demos need real data sources—Kafka topics, S3 buckets, SQL databases, microservices, etc.—that actually do stuff: emit messages, respond to API calls, and contain data.
Historically, we shipped demos as a mix of Docker Compose files and Spring Boot microservices (for the "doing stuff" part). But that was painful—Spring Boot services had to be dockerized and deployed somewhere, and code got messy.
So we built Nebula[1] to fix this. It’s a simple DSL where you declare the Docker images you need, then write Kotlin code to script them—all in a single file.
Nebula itself runs as a standalone Docker image. At runtime, it takes in the script, pulls and starts the required Docker images, then executes the Kotlin code you've written. The docker parts are handled by the awesome TestContainers, and scripting by Kotlin. Since it's just Kotlin, you can write whatever you need—we've even simulated full food delivery systems inside Nebula scripts.
We split it into its own repo under Apache 2. It's simple but surprisingly powerful (and kinda fun) for quickly hacking together demo ecosystems.
Thought I'd share!
