Create AdonisJS App

AdonisJS Typescript starter template

This is the official starter template to create AdonisJS applications. You can choose between one of the following boilerplates

• api: Project structure + dependencies tailored for creating a REST API server.
• web: Traditional web application with server rendered templates and pre-configured support for sessions.
• slim: A smallest possible AdonisJS application. Still way powerful and feature rich than an Express application.
