Create Node.js app that is packed with best practices AND strive for simplicity

import { logger } from '@practica/logger';
import { AppError, errorHandler } from '@practica/error-handling';
import { startWebServer } from './entry-points-fastify/api/server';

async function start() {
  // 🦉 Array of entry point is being used to support more entry-points kinds like message queue, scheduled job,
  return Promise.all([startWebServer()]);
}

start()
  .then((startResponses) => {
    logger.info(`The app has started successfully ${startResponses}}`);
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    // ️️️✅ Best Practice: A failure during startup is catastrophic and should lead to process exit (you may retry before)
    // Consequently, we flag the error as catastrophic
    errorHandler.handleError(
      new AppError('startup-failure', error.message, 500, false, error)
    );
  });
