Node is shiny, but my impression is while most of the pieces are there for good services, a solid obvious solution for your standard crud app doesn't feel like its present. I've used Django and Play and assume Ruby on Rails is similar -- does Node.js sport something as (relatively) polished as those?
- Bahamut 10y agoThere aren't really a lot of Node frameworks out there I believe (unless one counts libraries such as express or hapi I guess)...probably the same reason why we don't see Go or Rust in those charts is my guess.
- lsiebert 10y agoSpeaking off the cuff, Rust doesn't have the market share. Node feels like it's still evolving at such a rapid pace that any framework is going to feel tired within a couple of years, if that. Revel is the closest thing to Rails in Go, I think it can be frustrating to work with, but there aren't a lot of strong options in contention for Golang. It seems possible that this which will lead to splintering in libraries/frameworks because it's all statically typed. Node has the most potential here, I'd say, but it's possible that someone has or will create a very strong service framework for golang with enough abstraction that it can have a web framework embedded. But I'm not sure.
