What problem does it solve?

Bootstrapping or restructuring NestJS projects to follow consistent, production-ready conventions, including folder layout, config, environment setup, and tooling, can be a time-consuming and error-prone process. This Skill automates the scaffolding, providing a solid foundation that is TypeORM-ready, testing-ready, and deployment-friendly.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated Project Setup: Create new NestJS API projects or restructure existing ones into a clean, standard layout (e.g., src/modules, src/common).
• Config & Environment Management: Wire up @nestjs/config for robust environment and application configuration, using .env files.
• Base Infrastructure & Tooling: Set up common filters, guards, interceptors, a health module, and essential tooling like ESLint and Jest, with proper package.json scripts.

Quick Start

Create a new NestJS API service in apps/api with our usual setup, and scaffold a NestJS project that we can later plug TypeORM and auth into.
