Code & Curiosity by Maximilian Schwarzmüller Maximilian Schwarzmüller

Express.js dominates the Node.js framework landscape. It seems as if almost every Node.js developer is using it.
But why is that the case?

Building a SaaS (or any web-based project) has never been easier. There are plenty of frameworks and technologies to pick from.
But which one is best? Can the JavaScript ecosystem keep up with Laravel etc?

The Remix team announced that they would pause working on Remix and instead focus on bringing all core Remix features over to React Router. Because Remix already was essentially "React Router++".

Two major frameworks (yes, React is a library .... ) and two major versions.
Here's my opinion on both!

Node.js allows you to run JavaScript outside of the browser. So does Bun, Deno and some other JavaScript runtimes that emerged over the last couple of years.
All these runtimes were created to solve certain problems that were introduced by Node.js.
But should you make the move away from Node.js?

You're preferring const over let? Think again!
You're using Angular? Is that a joke? You get the point ...
I really hate that part of social media and the "developer world". What about you?
