Are you able to talk a bit about your server-side Javascript setup? What was your decision making process for using something other than Node? How does the ecosystem of libraries and supporting infrastructure look like?
- theandrewbailey 9y agoIt's not something that I chose in particular. I work at a Salesforce Commerce Cloud[0] partner, with half a dozen clients. The language syntax is Javascript (in fact, I'm sure that it's built on the JVM's JS engine), but uses a proprietary API. The platform is laser focused on doing scaleable e-commerce, although it has somewhat competent CMS and CDN functionality, at least enough as necessary to load pages fast and sell things. Once you start doing things like newsletter list management, file uploads, and even product reviews, its less than optimal. [0] https://www.demandware.com/ https://www.demandware.com/
