• Ask HN: What's the simplest chat back end I can set up in the next 3 days?

  Elixer does seem tailor made for this sort of thing, but I’ve never used it so I can only recommend you try [feathersjs](https://feathersjs.com/). Setting up a chat backend with it was fairly straightforward, but your mileage may vary as it does force some abstractions that you may not want. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Preferred Node backend framework for TS?

  NestJs 's typescript support is just stellar since it is a pure typescript project from the ground up. Some missing frameworks in your list - Hapi - feathers - adonisJs - sailsjs (something about this framework never ticked, typescript is a clear after thought compared to the others in the list).

• Build Your Own Web Framework

  Im building with featherjs[0] right now and I love it. Jwt, user handling, routing, and (most notably to me) real-time functionality is all built in. Probably the most rails-like backend framework I’ve worked with in Node so far. [0] https://feathersjs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• hi... i really need help with good examples of a simple register login update and logout system using nodejs mongodb

  You might take a look at a framework that already includes user authentication like Feathers.js. The Getting Started Guide walks you through creating a simple real-time chat app with user authentication. And the final chat app code is on GitHub here. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Why use express over JSON-server?

  You're right, using express requires that you to write a lot of code to get the same functionality as json-server because express is library to build web servers, but it's more flexible and powerful than json-server, so express is quiet popular to build REST API with node, also you can search for more framework-like projects to build API with node.js like Nest.js, Feathers, Adonis or something more user-friendly...

• Anyone have design advice for this scenario

  Overall, your idea is pretty reasonable. You might consider using something like Feathers.js for your API/backend that provides some higher level messaging on top of WebSockets. That will take care of some of those lower-level details for you. In Feathers, your user would just subscribe to a named channel and your back end would post a message to the channel when something completes and then user would receive it....

• Using Node.js and AWS to build/deploy a login system, how should I do this?

  The main ones I've used are Feathers.js, NestJS and KeystoneJS. I've used Feathers more and it comes set up with user authentication pretty much out of the box. Keystone also comes with user auth already set up, but is GraphQL only. (Feathers and Nest can do either REST or GraphQL.). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Please stop calling it “magic”

  > in fact we all use metaprogramming on a regular basis No, I write Go code. Everything is very explicit. Magic is not derogatory; it simply denotes that often the developer using such constructs does not fully understand the implications. A prime example of this is Feathers[1], a node framework that manages to be insecure by default to enable fast prototyping. I've seen swiss cheese results of using it more often... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Easiest way to build a CRUD app

  Depends on what you're aiming for. For an API that will not be very flexible, its https://strapi.io/ may be good. https://feathersjs.com/ is good if you're looking for something flexible. If you are looking for more flexibility, you should write from scratch. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• What is the best node.js framework I should learn for REST APIs that I can use Vue.js with?

  I deeply enjoy using feathers.js (https://feathersjs.com/) with Feathers-Vuex (https://vuex.feathersjs.com/). There's a CLI tool that gets you up and running fast: https://github.com/feathersjs/cli. Source: about 2 years ago
