Node.js API and Web Frameworks for 2019

The Node.js frameworks reviewed in this roundup tackle various issues such as corporate sponsorship, security concerns, and dependencies. Frameworks like Sails, Koa, and Express have significant GitHub star growth, while Nest's popularity is attributed to its use of TypeScript and built-in GraphQL adapter. The choice of a framework depends on the specific use case, with some being suitable for full-stack development, API-only usage, or minimalistic approaches. Some frameworks, like AdonisJs and Hapi, offer explicit modules for extension, whereas others rely on community-supplied extensions. Frameworks like Fastify focus on performance, while Restify prioritizes debuggability. Server.js is a new but promising lightweight framework with modern features, and Sails provides an opinionated MVC framework with a range of technologies.
