This repo contains a fully functional example RESTful API using NodeJS, Typescript, ExpressJS and TypeORM. The getting started guide on this page is split into 2 secions - creating your own API based off this template (New API), and setting up and environment to work on the template itself (Template Dev).

Developer Setup (New API)

• Click the “Use this template” button on the homepage for this repo;

• This will take you to a create repo page like so;

• Follow the steps to create your repository

• Clone the new repo onto your machine; shell script git clone https://github.com/your-username/your-repo-name

• Install the dependencies shell script npm install

• Create the environment file shell script cp .env.sample .env

• Open the new .env file you created and adjust the settings to match your development environment
