Sails.js is the MVC backend framework in The Boring JavaScript Stack. It provides convention-over-configuration server-side architecture with actions, helpers, models, policies, hooks, and a powerful routing system. The Boring Stack defaults to the actions2 format for all controllers and helpers.
Sails is built on Express and uses the Waterline ORM for database access. It pairs with Inertia.js to render React, Vue, or Svelte frontends without building a separate API.
