        Yes. However, The same cannot be said for every other dev on the project.

        Typescript helps a lot but JS still lacks a lot of the functionality, and especially the tooling, available in other frameworks.

        Going from ASP.Net Core to NestJS is like digging holes with a shovel instead of a backhoe. It feels like a huge downgrade. And then half your time is spent dealing with the incredibly finicky dev environment.

        I am not impressed.

          Interesting! I have built several projects entirely in TS or with react/next frontends and I enjoy the DX a lot now that I have the experience with the overwhelming breadth of options out there. It was very frustrating and overwhelming for me at first though. I found Dockerizing to help with consistency and finickiness.

          Just curious, what are you missing most from asp.net core?
