Prisma
Next-generation ORM for Node.js & TypeScript | PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB and CockroachDB
Ever wondered what happens behind the scenes of a wildly successful database tool? Prisma isn't just another ORM; it's a powerful type-safe solution widely adopted by TypeScript developers. With over 42,000 GitHub stars and a thriving ecosystem, Prisma has become the go-to solution for developers who'd rather focus on building features than fighting with database queries.

SurveyJS
JavaScript Form Builder with No-Code UI & Built-In JSON Schema Editor. Add the SurveyJS white-label form builder to your JavaScript app (React/Angular/Vue3). Build complex JSON forms without coding. Fully customizable, works with any backend, perfect for data-heavy apps. Learn more.
-
payload
Payload is the open-source, fullstack Next.js framework, giving you instant backend superpowers. Get a full TypeScript backend and admin panel instantly. Use Payload as a headless CMS or for building powerful applications.
Payload, a CMS powered by Next.js, or Sveltia CMS, a Decap CMS alternative using Svelte, are examples of CMS that I recommend to avoid until they become framework agnostic.
-
Hasura
Blazing fast, instant realtime GraphQL APIs on all your data with fine grained access control, also trigger webhooks on database events.
Hasura is a neck-to-neck competitor to Supabase as a BaaS, but with a crucial difference: its GraphQL-first approach. Unlike Supabase, Hasura doesn't bundle database services, allowing it to work with virtually any database including Supabase's own Postgres, Neon, and others.

mean
The MEAN stack uses Mongo, Express, Angular(6) and Node for simple and scalable fullstack js applications

I mean, this really depends on what you're looking at.
Here's a sample from the MongoDB client: https://github.com/mongodb/node-mongodb-native/blob/main/src...
Here's a sample from Storybook: https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/blob/next/code/core...
Here's a sample from Prisma: https://github.com/prisma/prisma/blob/main/packages/client/s...
Here's a sample from Cal.com: https://github.com/calcom/cal.com/blob/main/packages/core/Ev...
It's rather the specific use case that determines the style of the code that's written. In the examples above, there's no need for the teams to choose JavaScript classes and inheritance to model the logic, yet it likely better fits the programming model of those modules.
Look at Nest.js as well: https://github.com/nestjs/nest/blob/master/packages/core/rou...
The whole codebase of Nest.js looks an aweful lot like Spring or ASP.NET (controller syntax) probably because there's a lot of crossover in terms of what APIs need at scale.
It just so happens that most use cases for C# and Java favor applications at a larger scale. Another key difference being object scope and lifecycles -- something that rarely comes into play in the generally single-threaded Node runtime. This being one of the key reasons why dependency injection is a thing in C# and Java land.
