modular applications

[andineck]

background

At intesso, we produce and run node.js applications since 2012, with a small team of 1-3.
The applications range from traffic control systems to content management systems.
Some run on state owned servers and some on raspberry pi's.

talk

I'd like to give a short overview of our experiences with building systems with node.js,
and the struggles we had building modular applications.

• how we experienced the introduction to node.js/javascript
• sum of modules == modular?
• node.js modules a blessing and a burden
• which frameworks/modules to use?
• how to put it all together?
• structures vs. concepts
• running code in the browser versus running it on the server
• pitfalls, lessons learned
