here is the problem I encounter when I launch my nest server:

back-end/node_modules/@nestjs/common/decorators/core/optional.decorator.js:22
                const args = Reflect.getMetadata(constants_1.OPTIONAL_DEPS_METADATA, target) || [];
                                     ^

I tested this in vain : npm i reflect-metadata I have already looked at the questions about the same error but I can't find any solutions

nestjs typescript

As user @hhearts already mentioned in the comment above, that's usually resolved by importing "reflect-metadata" into the global namespace (then you only have to do it once.

But you can do it as scoped as you need it.

For (p)react you can do it for example as the first import in App.ts

import "reflect-metadata";

export const App: FunctionalComponent = () => {
    (...)
}
