Gregory's Server
@darius @roadriverrail You're correct that any language ecosystem is vulnerable to this. NPM seems to be more vulnerable due to the vast number of dependencies, which is a direct consequence of the dev community deciding that every oneliner requires its own package.

 @moopet @ieure @roadriverrail I think Node can be convenient if you already know frontend JavaScript and would like to do some server-side work. For big projects I'd rather have a server written in something else, though there are exceptions like if it's a web app and you want to easily port code back and forth between client and server. When I was making browser based games that was a huge help. |
@ieure @darius @roadriverrail I still don't know why people evangelise node. It's not worse than many other things but even in the best light its not _better_
