Partly Vibecoded

Back then:

import express from "express";

const app = express();

app.get("/", async (req, res) => {
  res.send("Hello World");
});

This can get messy as the codebase grows, surely you can separate it into services, controllers, models so on. But those individualities can also get messy

With decorators:

"src/controller/*.ts";

import { Get } from "modern-express-decorators";

export class HealthCheckController {
  @Get("/")
  async function(req, res) {
    res.send("Hello World!");
  }
}

("src/index.ts");

import { HealthCheckController } from "src/controller/*.ts";
import { registerRouter } from "modern-express-decorators";
import express from "express";

const router = express.Router();
registerRouter(router, HealthCheckController);

app.use("/api", router);

To be added features:

• ~~DTO/Validation Schema on decorators~~ ✅
• Middleware Support (though one can pass on function itself)
• Performance enhancement
• Probably automatically allowing OpenAPI documentation support(?)

Anyone can freely fork or remake this, I just made this purely for myself to use for some side hobbies, expect bugs
