KickJSDecorator-driven Node.js framework

The DX of NestJS without the weight. TypeScript, Express 5, Zod, and decorators.

Dependency Injection

Custom lightweight container with constructor injection, property injection, factory registration, and lifecycle hooks.

@Controller, @Get, @Post, @Service, @Autowired, @Middleware — all the patterns you know from Spring Boot and NestJS.

Validation schemas double as OpenAPI documentation. No class-transformer or class-validator needed.

Zero-downtime hot reload in development. Preserves database pools, Redis connections, and Socket.IO state.

kick g module users scaffolds entity, repository, service, use-cases, DTOs, and controller in seconds.

Swagger UI and ReDoc generated automatically from your decorators and Zod schemas. Pluggable schema parsers.

Adapters for database, auth, cache. QueryBuilderAdapter for Drizzle, Prisma, Sequelize. SchemaParser for Zod, Yup, Joi.
