Re: newbie question about code

Adam- It is unique. I'm writing code that really can't be done any other way. How it handles events, sockets, etc is exceptional. The best part is everything now is JavaScript. The server (Node.js) is written in JavaScript. MongoDB is JavaScript. The frontend used to manage the WebSocket is entirely JavaScript. I have essentially replaced J2EE as the backend with Node and I couldn't be happier. Of course standard JavaScript woes apply. Debugging is a royal pain in the ass. Your code can and will suddenly fail due to odd strange errors. There are stability concerns with Node, it is version 0.2 after all. It won't replace PHP or Java as an enterprise level solution, but it does fill in the gaps very nicely.
