🏛️ Architecture

TypeIDs

This starter uses TypeIDs which are type-safe, K-sortable, unique identifiers inspired by Stripe IDs. An example ID for a user would be user_123456.

API Resources

Each API resource (eg. users) are defined in src/resources. Each resource has a router.ts and service.ts. All the endpoints for the resource are defined in router.ts and all of the business logic ends up in service.ts.

Deployment

This template is meant to be deployed with Railway. When deploying the template, use DATABASE_URL=${{Postgres.DATABASE_URL}} to configure the API to connect to the Postgres instance that comes with your deployment.
