Boilerplate for Node.js

I am open sourcing for the first time a boilerplate for Node.js in the back-end. It have tried to follow the best practices and included all folders required for big projects.

By the way, i am open for relocation and/or remote work.

Required dependecies

• Install Mongo DB
• Install Redis DB
• A .env file at the root of your folder

How to run ?

  npm install
  npm start

How to test ?

I am using jest

npm test
