To me the Node.JS articles are becoming like Erlang as been, something that gets submitted to the site over and over again. Let me know when there's an extensive of a library like Java or Python :D I do like the concept of JavaScript everywhere. For instance, the porting of Toxiclibs to Processing.js is simply astounding.
- dualogy 16y agoThis extensive library exists... as millions of separate JS pieces and snippets scattered around the web, and hundreds of (often fairly buggy) node-xyz modules on GitHub. Sure, it may be slightly less convenient than a standardized, readily packaged out-of-box library and it doesn't have 10 years of testing and refining under its belt yet. But it's there. Some like it raw and rough!

- pjscott 16y agoIt's surprisingly liberating to work with a software ecosystem like that. I thought it would just be frustrating, but it's actually fun. The easy forking of small, simple-to-hack, almost-adequate libraries on GitHub really, really helps.
