We chose NestJS for the backend because it brings structure and scalability to our codebase. With its built-in support for modules, decorators, and TypeScript, it makes building and maintaining complex features (like live collaboration and the API hub) much easier.

NestJS is the backbone of UniDeck's server-side architecture, offering a highly modular and maintainable framework for managing data and integrations. Its TypeScript-first approach and flexibility made it the perfect choice for building our APIs with speed and precision. Alternatives like Django or Laravel might have been viable, but NestJS stood out due to its modern development experience and support for microservices and also keeping our tech stack Javascript was one of our main priorities for future expansions and hiring.
