📑 About the project

The server uses Winston and the native debug for log and debug.Winston is a logger for Node.js based on log4J.

The code written in TypeScript is transpilated to JavaScript using Esbuild. Esbuild is an open source compiler that is faster than Babel. Written in GO, tsx was used for project automatic build.In addition, the tsup for server bundle, which is faster than tsc.

For communication, Express has been selected for being a lightweight, easy-to-use framework. In addition. With adding a Rate Limit Middleware layer for the routes Express-rate-limit and Cors. And Helmet for security Helmet.

Finally, for unit tests the Jest was the framework responsible for unit tests performed. In addition, the supertest was used to test the routes with integration tests.
