We all love Express.js for its simplicity and flexibility — but let’s face it, it's starting to feel... a bit manual. If you’ve ever wanted the developer experience of Next.js but with the power of Express, you're going to love this.

Introducing Monpress — a modern, lightweight framework for building APIs using Express.js and TypeScript.

Monpress keeps the raw power of Express, but brings in modern conventions like:

File-based routing

RESTful method exports

Optional & dynamic route parameters

Global middleware support

Built-in CLI for scaffolding and development

⚡ Why Monpress Is More Than Just a CLI

This isn’t just a helper script — Monpress is a full framework designed for backend developers who want speed and structure.

Think of it as:

  • The Next.js of Express
  • A faster way to build APIs without boilerplate
  • An expressive and scalable structure for real-world backends
