I hate this about the Node/Javascript community. Whenever I need to learn how to do something in Node js, 4 out of 5 blog posts or tutorials will be about some overly complicated technology or new, shiny thing instead of the classical way. Man, I just want to do the same shit we were doing in PHP 10 years ago, but this time I want to see how to do it in Node/Express. Is that too much to ask?
