Update

I tried making a Nest.js application with TypeScript, as it includes a lot of packages and configuration ready for a TypeScript/Node environment.

And managed to get Lowdb working there.

Now I'm going to compare both tsconfig.json to see what changed, and if apart from ts-node-dev, I need any other package.
