I understand the evented nature of Node.js and I'm not taking that away. In the code example I gave I'm still using the async methods. DirectoryScanner.scanLibraries = function(librariesRoot) { // Asynchronous Function Callback function // | | fs.readdir(librariesRoot, this.onLibrariesDirRead.bind(this)); }; All I've done is pass in a bound method on an object as the callback function. OOP does work for Node as far as I can tell I broke nothing with my code, it's all async/evented... Can you give me an example as to how my coding style would break Node? I'm genuinely confused.
