Node.js is a wonderful thing for any JS programmer, even more so if he happens to love unix. > or can we just agree that this post was some sort of bad > joke on your part? You're a bit too much irascible, istm. -- Jorge.

If someone is to review this, I hope it is not someone whose main focus seems to be on browser scripting. Node.js is all about server-side JS, using the V8 engine. I don't know enough about that subject to offer a review, but would love to see one from someone who does. There are some surprising results, including a simple server that outperforms nginx in requests/ second. One interesting thing about the presentation is the argument that JavaScript is the perfect language for doing IO-centric operations if only JS supported IO. It's reasonably convincing. -- Scott

It's reasonably convincing. And you can use it to script a unix system in JavaScript. It even accepts a shebang in the script files, so a source text.js file behaves exactly as a (binary) program. It has a rich built-in API, and a module loader : http://nodejs.org/api.html -- Jorge |
