Can I create another WordPress that satisfies humanity?
The API is a powerful blend of Node.js + Express. When evaluating backend combinations, a crucial aspect is that it can be deployed in any environment. Hence, vendor-locked options like Next.js were excluded from the candidate list.

Adding Dockerfiles to Open-Source Projects
After searching for hours and hours, I finally found an issue requesting to Dockerize the application. It was a full-stack social media application called ChatRoom, with a React Frontend and an Express.js Backend. Even though the project was fairly new, and not super complex, it was exactly what I was looking for this time.

Should you use jest as a testing library?
For example, Fastify removed the instanceof operatorfrom its codebase because it was causing problems for those developers that rely on jest as a testing framework.

Building a modern gRPC-powered microservice using Node.js, Typescript, and Connect
In setting out to build this service, we wanted to use gRPC for its APIs. We’ve been reaching for REST when building APIs so far, primarily out of necessity, i.e., our public APIs needed auto-generated client SDKs and docs for developers working with them.

Suffice it to say we love gRPC’s schema-first approach. This blog post summarizes our feelings well

We’ll be using Fastify as the framework of choice. Fastify is a fast (as the name implies) and low-overhead server in Node. It has grown in popularity, recently crossing the 1 million weekly download mark on npm. I’m a fan of Fastify’s plugin architecture, and the ecosystem is quite impressive, boasting over 250 core and community plugins.
