  1. Thanks! Great tutorial! Could you please give a repository link with this example ?

  2. Excellent example!, but this does not seems to be working, and there are many files mentioned in this example are missing. Please share the git link for the example Or please update the blog with proper files/ missing file ie., SerializedUserDTO, UserRole.
    and where to use the below line.

    return {
    user: Serializable,
    otherProperty: true,
    };

  3. The core of the issue comes from your lack of DTO. You’re supposed to map your entities to DTO classes, then you can keep ClassSerializerInterceptor and introduce more information in the DTO.
