What it is
Ts.ED is a modern Node.js framework built with TypeScript. It offers a flexible structure with a fast learning curve, specifically designed to improve the developer experience. Ts.ED provides numerous decorators and guidelines to make your code more readable and less error-prone. It supports various platforms and tools, including Node.js/Bun.js, Express.js/Koa.js, CLI, and serverless architectures (e.g., AWS).
- Multi-platform: Easily build your server-side application using Express.js, Koa.js, CLI, or serverless platforms (e.g., AWS). It supports both Node.js and Bun.js runtimes. Learn more here.
- Configuration: Stop wasting time on configuration—your application comes preconfigured for a fast start! Try our CLI.
- Decorators: Use a wide range of decorators to structure your code, define routes, and implement methods with ease. Learn more here.
- Class-based: Define classes as Controllers, Models, Providers (DI), Pipes, and more, with JSON Schema and OpenAPI at the core of the framework.
- Testing: Testing is not optional—it's essential! Ts.ED includes built-in features to make testing your code simple and efficient. Learn more here.

Overview
Server example
Here an example to create a Server with Ts.ED:
import {Configuration, Inject} from "@tsed/di";
import {PlatformApplication} from "@tsed/platform-http";
import "@tsed/platform-express";
import cookieParser from "cookie-parser";
import compress from "compress";
import methodOverride from "method-override";
@Configuration({
port: 3000,
middlewares: ["cookie-parser", "compression", "method-override", "json-parser", "urlencoded-parser"]
})
export class Server {}
To run your server, you have to use Platform API to bootstrap your application with the expected platform like Express.
import {$log} from "@tsed/logger";
import {PlatformExpress} from "@tsed/platform-express";
import {Server} from "./Server.js";
async function bootstrap() {
try {
$log.debug("Start server...");
const platform = await PlatformExpress.bootstrap(Server);
await platform.listen();
$log.debug("Server initialized");
} catch (er) {
$log.error(er);
}
}
bootstrap();
To customize the server settings see Configure server with decorator
Controller example
This is a simple controller to expose user resource. It use decorators to build the endpoints:
import {Inject} from "@tsed/di";
import {Summary} from "@tsed/swagger";
import {
Controller,
Get,
QueryParams,
PathParams,
Delete,
Post,
Required,
BodyParams,
Status,
Put,
Returns,
ReturnsArray
} from "@tsed/schema";
import {BadRequest} from "@tsed/exceptions";
import {UsersService} from "../services/UsersService.js";
import {User} from "../models/User.js";
@Controller("/users")
export class UsersCtrl {
@Inject()
private usersService: UsersService;
@Get("/:id")
@Summary("Get a user from his Id")
@Returns(User)
async getUser(@PathParams("id") id: string): Promise<User> {
return this.usersService.findById(id);
}
@Post("/")
@Status(201)
@Summary("Create a new user")
@Returns(User)
async postUser(@Required() @BodyParams() user: User): Promise<User> {
return this.usersService.save(user);
}
@Put("/:id")
@Status(201)
@Summary("Update the given user")
@Returns(User)
async putUser(@PathParams("id") id: string, @Required() @BodyParams() user: User): Promise<User> {
if (user.id !== id) {
throw new BadRequest("ID mismatch with the given payload");
}
return this.usersService.save(user);
}
@Delete("/:id")
@Summary("Remove a user")
@Status(204)
async deleteUser(@PathParams("id") @Required() id: string): Promise<User> {
await this.usersService.delete(user);
}
@Get("/")
@Summary("Get all users")
@(Returns(200, Array).Of(User))
async findUser(@QueryParams("name") name: string) {
return this.usersService.find({name});
}
}
