Is your question: Why do the number of open NodeJS positions not correlate to the crap you hear about NodeJS applications?
I don’t know, but I assume there’s also a pay/skills gap that exists there, as a lot of those NodeJS jobs are going to be about keeping a CMS alive, whereas the rest of the frameworks you mention are old-school application frameworks.
Not saying NodeJS cannot be used to build more complicated things, it certainly can, but there’s also a large number of people only using NodeJS to build asset packs for static websites.
- Existenceblinks 4y agoYes, that's my question. My theory is that it's a vibe of incompetent technical leads who read too much tech twitter bubble. Since every thing is javascript there. There are numbers of really good business that's PHP based. Rails has established business like Github or Shopify. Who uses nodejs as a core engine for their services?
- breckenedge 4y agoMaybe not a core engine, but certainly a lot of frontends have a NodeJS component.
