What did you try to build with it? In how far did that succeed? And did you find a better alternative?
As an app developer, this looks pretty great. I can just click together a backend and don't have to futz around in PHP or Python.
- vSanjo 7y agoI'll throw in my 2c. It was my first adventure into a Node.js CMS and used MongoDB for it's database. I'm a Javascript and Frontend Developer. I've found it chaotically buggy - that is, sometimes it's great, amazing, works as expected and other times it simple fails quietly and in such a way I can't reverse easily - chaotic. Saving changes to fields is hit-and-miss. Anything 'metadata'-related towards fields is a scary thing now. We use it for a particularly lightweight project but I wish we didn't after experiencing it enough now. Note: I'm aware of its status, I still think they consider themselves 'alpha' and the developer that chose this was aware of the risks.
- cerberusss 7y agoThanks a lot!

- cerberusss 7y agoSounds good, will have a look!
