Node.js Emerging as the Universal Development Framework
- onion2k 9y agoNode is lovely, and I use it daily, but I don't think the fact it has a healthy ecosystem really means very much. A decade ago the same was true of PHP, and a decade before that it was true of Perl. Software engineering changes very quickly relative to other disciplines. In 2027 there'll be a new language de jour. I'd recommend learning Node to anyone, but I'd also recommend learning anything you find interesting and useful, and keeping up with how things are changing, and changing language when the project calls for it.
