A lightweight full-stack starter for server-side rendering with NestJS and React.

This project combines:

• NestJS (with Fastify) as the HTTP server and API layer
• React + React Router for UI and route-based rendering
• SSR rendering pipeline that serves HTML from the server, then hydrates on the client

• NestJS handles incoming page requests
• Server-side React rendering produces HTML for the current route
• Data can be prepared on the server and hydrated into the client
• Client-side React takes over after hydration for interactive updates

This gives a balanced setup for SEO, fast first paint, and modern SPA behavior after load.

• React 19 + React Router 7
• NestJS 11 + Fastify
• Rsbuild + TypeScript
• MikroOrm + SQLite
• Zod + nestjs-zod
