Can I JS

The yes framework!!

Overview

Can-I is a Web Framework that seeks to make creating backend api very easy. It provides some addtional features as well as being completely built in typescript.

Install the Can-I framework using npm

npm install can-i

The framework focuses on giving good standards, but providing the flexibility to change the standards if there is a need for this. For most project this will no be neccessary. The only potential case is if the structure is also being used by a third-party tool.

Structure

• controllers
• services
• views
• index.ts

Controllers

This layout is very easy to understand and to implement. The aim is the have the directory self explaining. The controllers directory will contain all of your controllers and the logic of the application

Services

Services are standalone classes but additional attributes can be added to them to give extra features. This is a very powerful tool that will be revisted later.

Views

This is where template files will go that are used for server-side rendering

index.ts

This is the entry point for you application. The file doesn't have to be named index.ts, but it is standard to name it as such
