Current behavior

at https://docs.nestjs.com/standalone-applications isn't clear which nestjs features aren't supposed to work when using NestFactory.createApplicationContext (+ app.init)

Expected behavior

I'd like to see which features won't be evaluated in the standalone mode.

I'm not sure what is expected to work in such apps and what is not, I just have few guesses

here's a non-exhaustive WIP list of those features:

• ~controllers~
• middleware; which includes the NestModule interface
• ~pipes~
• ~guards~
• ~interceptors~
• ~filters~

the scratched ones are the features that although not useful (usually) in standalone apps they are initialized by nestjs (v10)

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

people sometimes complain that few features that aren't working when using the standalone mode.
