On this project we had the backend code.
It's a Nest project that serves the app-client via Express. It uses GraphQL for query the application endpoints, JWT for authentication via token, with device-detector-js for secure sessions, CASL for authorization management, TypeORM for database schema and queries, and class-validator for specific attributes validations. By default it's conneted to a PostgreSQL datasource, but it can be used with most databases (including MySQL, MongoDB, SQLServer, MariaDB, etc).
