## Installation

To get started, clone the repository and install the dependencies:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ImtiazNayeemShawon/ExpressJS-Typescript-template.git
cd ExpressJS-Typescript-template
npm install
```

## Usage

### Development

To start the server in development mode with TypeScript compilation and file watching:

```bash
npm run dev
```

This command runs TypeScript in watch mode and starts the server using `nodemon` to automatically restart on changes.

### Production

To build the TypeScript files and start the server:

```bash
npm run build
npm start
```

This will compile the TypeScript files into JavaScript and start the server from the `dist` folder.

## Scripts

- **`npm run dev`**: Compiles TypeScript files and starts the server in watch mode for development.
- **`npm run build`**: Compiles TypeScript files into JavaScript in the `dist` directory.
- **`npm start`**: Runs the compiled JavaScript server.

## Dependencies

- **`dotenv`**: Environment variable management.
- **`express`**: Web framework for Node.js.
- **`mongoose`**: MongoDB object modeling tool.

## DevDependencies

- **`@types/express`**: Type definitions for Express.js.
- **`@types/node`**: Type definitions for Node.js.
- **`typescript`**: TypeScript language support.
