mojo VS node

Initial thoughts

If you end up doing web development, check out Mojolicious:

https://mojolicious.org/

If you choose to go down the Mojolicious road, there's lots of deployment information and guides in the Mojolicious Cookbook.

I guess this will make it harder to search for Mojo(licious)-related stuff. 😩

But if I want the return value of 'test_p' or the error message 'This is an error', I can't seem to figure that out. I tried looking at the promise tests (https://github.com/mojolicious/mojo/blob/main/t/mojo/promise.t) but that didn't seem to work either.

Several! The 3 big players in order of release are Catalyst, (released in 2005), Dancer2 (Dancer was first released in 2009, but went through a complete re-write as Dancer2 around 2013), and Mojolicious (released in 2010).

This project sounds to me like the perfect excuse to learn Mojolicious if you're interested in converting your scripts into a web application using Perl.

Awesome! I still use Perl on a pretty regular basis both for work and fun. I really enjoy it. Definitely take a look at Mojolicious if you haven't already. It's primarily focused on being a web framework (both server and client), but it's nicely modular so you can use bits and pieces of the stack. In i3mojo, I used the Mojo::IOLoop event loop, Mojo::Base as a base class system, and Mojo::UserAgent as a web client for some plugins.

Last time I used Perl for anything web it was via https://mojolicious.org/

It even does event-based and websockets

Let’s see how we could set up a shiny new JavaScript project using the Yarn package manager. We are going to set up nodenv, install Node.js and Yarn, and then initialize a new project that we will then be able to use as a foundation for our further ideas.

Node.js ( https://nodejs.org/ )

Visit the Node.js website and download the latest version of Node.js for your operating system.

Basic knowledge of Node.js and its environment setup. If you don't have Node.js installed on your system, make sure you download and install it from the official Node.js website.

Node.js can be easily installed from its official website. Depending on your operating system, you can choose the Windows, macOS, or Linux version. Node.js packages come with npm (Node Package Manager), which is essential for managing dependencies in your projects.

To get started with Node.js 22.0.0, you can download the latest version from the official Node.js website. For those upgrading from an older version, it is recommended to test your existing applications for compatibility with the new release, particularly if you are using native modules or rely heavily on third-party npm packages.

Node.js (version 10 or higher)

Before we start, ensure that you have Node.js installed on your computer. This is necessary because we will use Node's package manager (npm) to create our Next.js project. If you need to install Node.js, you can download it from the official Node.js website.

Before starting a new project in react, you need to make sure that you have NodeJS install on your system. You can download the latest version of node at https://nodejs.org. Follow the instructions on the node website to do the installation.
