Modular Architecture

Each feature lives in its own modules/ folder with dedicated .controller.js, .routes.js, and .model.js.

🛠️

Code Generator

Run generate mod <name> anywhere in your project. Controller, routes, and model are created and auto-registered in app.js.

Production Middleware

CORS, gzip compression, cookie-parser, Morgan logging, and a global error handler — all wired up and tuned by default.

📦

Native ESM

type: "module" from day one. Clean import/export syntax with no Babel, no transpilation, no config overhead.

🔐

Auth Bootstrapped

A complete auth module is scaffolded automatically — signup, login, and JWT patterns ready to extend from day one.

Smart Install Check

If your chosen package manager isn't installed, the CLI warns you gracefully with the install URL — scaffold never fails.

What Can You Generate?

Run these anywhere inside your project.

generate mod <name>

Scaffold a complete module: controller, routes, and model — auto-registered in app.js.

xpresso-cli [project]

Bootstrap a full Express application from scratch with your preferred database.

npm run dev

Start the development server with Nodemon for instant hot-reload on every file change.

npm start
