I really don't like it when a framework is touted to be the be-all-and-end-all. The article tries to put this idea across. Node.js is nothing more than a tool, it is good at some things and bad at others. It is not the ultimate solution that "enterprise" developers can use for any problem.
- collyw 10y agoIt seems to attract the crowd who do tout it as a tool for everything, which in turn puts me off learning it.
- asimuvPR 10y agoI've been using Django for some years now and have taken an interest in Node.js. In spite of Django (IMO) being simpler to get up and running. Node.js is now everywhere and is making progress in the enterprise stack. What I'd like to know (or make happen) is a Django equivalent in Node.js. Something with a built-in Admin, ORM, and (server side) templating system. Anything stable out there that fits my requirements?
- collyw 10y agoWon't Django channels cover the same sort of tasks?
- asimuvPR 10y agoI've been doing small projects to get settled with channels and it works very nicely. The big difference with node and django is that Node is backed by bigger entities than Django/Python. I love Django, and use it for many things, but JS and node are winning a lot of ground.
