  • TypeORM

    ORM for TypeScript and JavaScript. Supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, MariaDB, SQLite, MS SQL Server, Oracle, SAP Hana, WebSQL databases. Works in NodeJS, Browser, Ionic, Cordova and Electron platforms.

    TypeORM is an amazing ORM, which we can use to interact with various databases. It also has really good TypeScript support and the way we define database entities in TypeORM will be very useful when we setup TypeGraphQL later in this post.

  • TypeGraphQL

    Create GraphQL schema and resolvers with TypeScript, using classes and decorators!

    In this post, I’ll help you get a solid understanding of working with GraphQL in Node.js and TypeScript using a library called TypeGraphQL. TypeGraphQL is an awesome way to create your GraphQL resolvers and it has seamless integration capabilities with ORMs like TypeORM (we’ll be using it in this post!) and mikro-orm. It uses classes and decorators to beautifully generate our schemas using very less code.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
