# Backend Typed

Welcome! Here you’ll find a comprehensive guide to building self-descriptive APIs using **Fastify**, a fast and efficient Node.js framework. This project integrates **TypeScript**, **Zod**, and **Swagger** to deliver a robust development and documentation experience.

## 🛠️ Key Features
- **Fastify Setup with TypeScript**: Learn how to initialize and configure your backend using **pnpm**.
- **CORS Configuration**: Enable cross-origin communication for your backend.
- **Data Validation and Serialization with Zod**: Implement robust validations and generate schemas for API documentation.
- **Swagger Documentation**: Integrate Swagger with Fastify to document your APIs clearly and efficiently.
- **Route Organization**: Group and organize routes with tags for better navigation in Swagger.
- **Direct Testing in Swagger**: Test and validate your routes directly in the Swagger interface.
- **Fastify vs. Express Comparison**: Discover why Fastify might be a better choice for updates and modern features.
- **Frontend Autogeneration**: Integrate tools to automatically generate frontend files from API documentation.
