# NestJS Skill

## When to Use

- Building modular server-side apps
- Using dependency injection
- Structuring scalable APIs

## Critical Patterns

- Use modules for separation
- Providers for business logic
- Decorators for routing and DI

## Decision Tree

- REST or GraphQL? → Use controllers
- Service logic? → Use providers
- Config management? → Use ConfigModule

## Edge Cases

- Circular dependency injection
- Custom provider scopes
- Module import order
