NestJS CLI vs Quarkus

NestJS CLI is a command-line tool for creating, developing, and maintaining Nest applications. Its `nest new` command scaffolds a project with boilerplate files and lets you choose ESM or CommonJS. The `nest generate` command creates or changes files according to a schematic, while other commands compile an application or workspace, or compile and run an application. The CLI supports standard and monorepo modes, including built-in library support for monorepos, and its commands are designed to encourage well-structured applications. You can install a Nest-packaged library with `add`, which runs its install schematic, or use `deploy` to deploy an application to the cloud powered by Mau. The CLI is free and open source under the MIT license. It supports TypeScript and JavaScript. Global npm installation and running through npx are both documented options. The CLI binary requires Node.js v20.11 or later; the `new`, `generate`, and `upgrade` schematics require Node.js v22.22.3+, v24.15+, or v26+. The Node.js binary must include ICU internationalization support.
