AdonisJS: Node.js Web Framework

AdonisJS is an open-source Node.js web framework providing a structured approach for building web applications, including routing, templating engines, ORM, authentication, and more.

What is AdonisJS?

AdonisJS is an open-source Node.js web framework that aims to provide an organized structure and development tools for building scalable web applications. It has an MVC architecture and includes many features out of the box like:

• Routing - Define routes and handlers for HTTP requests
• Templating engine - Uses Edge template engine for server-side rendering
• ORM - Uses Lucid ORM to abstract and manipulate data in a database
• Authentication - Session based authentication with middleware support
• Authorization - Role based permissions with Ace library
• Validation - Request data validation with Indicative
• Asset management - Compile SASS, bundle JavaScript
• Event listeners - Register events/hooks that get executed on specific application lifecycle

By providing this comprehensive set of tools and an intuitive project structure, AdonisJS allows developers to focus on building features instead of rebuilding common infrastructure. It has a large community behind it and is actively maintained. The framework promotes code reusability and maintainability through DI container bindings, service providers, middleware, etc.
