Tsoa: [Question] Comparison to inversify-express-utils package
New user here. I was wondering what is the difference between tsoa and inversify-express-utils?
Not trolling, just trying to understand which is a better fit for my needs. I like the ASP.NET / Spring way of doing things, and I noticed that both packages offer such features.
Are they equivalent or are there any major differences?

Hey @lonix1 - from what I can see, inversify-express-utils does route creation, but it doesn't generate a Swagger specification.
Part of the draw of tsoa is that you can generate client SDKs and documentation easily.

@lukeautry Thanks!
I can't put my finger on it exactly, but it seems this library is more well rounded. I think that one was "added" to a container, whereas this one was meant to emulate aspnet/spring (IoC wasn't the point).

Yeah, I would say that this library was designed, first and foremost, to create real world APIs.
Check out https://github.com/lukeautry/ts-app for a full stack example of how tsoa fits in with an entire application.

Wow that is one monster DDD example app! I use angular, but I'm gonna have fun digging into the server side of it! Thanks! You've structured it in an awesome way that I miss from aspnet, in node everything is so... messy! :laughing:
No IoC though?
With IoC and some cqrs that is basically the perfect sample app for those coming to node from .net/java/rails.

Nope, but I don't think it would be too much trouble to add it in since
tsoa supports inversify.
