Why?
Strikes me as a very odd choice for an application that is going to handle your money.
Just because a lot of people make silly decisions (Node.js??? It is not, and never will be, secure. Broken design) is no reason to do it in your software.
Good on you for getting into the reliably profitable part of the business though. Making money out of bigger fools.

- mumphster 5y agoWhat's broken in node.js's design? Most new trading apps out there are also build on electron, or worse yet, some really gross java desktop ui thats even slower and eats up way more ram. All of what you said is fud and unsubstantiated.

- krageon 5y agoWhether or not it is broken has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not most apps currently use it. It's a little hypocritical to claim the person you respond to is saying unsubstantiated things when you are doing the exact same thing.
