summary
Talk explains how to build a backend-for-frontend using Node.js and JavaScript, aiming to let frontend engineers write server code for data-rich client apps. It discusses practical choices and pitfalls (including whether a full backend can be JavaScript and reach enterprise quality), examines Nest.js but argues that framework choice doesn’t replace sound architecture, and gives guidance on writing respectable backend code.
