E3 Stack - The best way to start a typesafe backend

A powerful tech stack for building robust and scalable APIs using TypeScript, Express.js, and optionally Prisma, along with minor dependencies like Zod, ESLint, and Prettier.

Introduction

Welcome to the E3 Stack - the best way to start a typesafe backend! This tech stack provides you with everything you need to create APIs quickly and efficiently. It's designed to simplify the development process and make your life easier.

Features

• TypeScript: Write code that's easy to understand and maintain thanks to strong typing.
• Express.js: Build APIs that are fast, reliable, and easy to scale using Node.js and Express.
• Prisma: Simplify database operations with an auto-generated query builder and type-safe schema.
• Zod: A runtime type checking library to ensure data consistency.
• ESLint: Lint your code for best practices and maintainability.
• Prettier: Automatically format your code to keep it clean and consistent.

Getting Started

To create your API project with the E3 Stack, you only need one simple command:

npm create e3-app@latest

or

yarn create e3-app

or

pnpm create e3-app@latest

or

bunx create-e3-app@latest

This command will set up a new project based on the E3 Stack. Follow the prompts to customize your project as needed, including the option to include Prisma, and you're ready to go!

Project Structure

The project structure is organized as follows:

• src/: Contains the core source code for your TypeScript and Express.js application.
  • controllers/: This directory holds your API controller logic.
  • routes/: Define your API routes here.
  • lib/: Store utility functions or shared code in this directory.
  • index.ts: The entry point of your application, where the Express.js server is initialized.
• public/: If you have static assets such as images, place them in this directory.
• prisma/: Prisma schema files and database migration configurations are stored here.
• .env: Configuration file for environment variables, including database connection details (if applicable).

Feel free to adapt this structure to match your specific project requirements.
