mongo-express VS SailsJS

I like mongo express you can give it a try https://github.com/mongo-express/mongo-express

MongoDB: Network details (name, host, number of participants) are stored in MongoDB. When in development mode, Mongo Express is available at http://localhost:8081, and provides a web-based administrative interface.

The Makefile contains common bash commands that I use for tasks like starting and stopping the containers, seeding data, seeing logs etc. The docker-compose.yaml file contains definitions for the different services such as the database service, the API itself and a mongo-express service for easy database administration. Source code for the API lives inside src. Top level structure of that directory is as follows -

mongo-express maybe?

But if couchDB works, it works. Personally I'd love to shoehorn LISP into everything I do, but most of the time I just use python and bash because things tend to get done faster when I do.

Sails is a realtime JavaScript framework built on top of Express. Sails offers built-in realtime communication support and a flexible routing system.

Community stats: Sails GitHub repository has an active community with 22.78k stars and 2k forks. They also have a YouTube channel with a library of useful tutorial videos.

Sails.js: Sails.js pitched itself as the MVC framework for Node.js, bringing a Rails-like experience while being database agnostic.

Disclaimer: I didn't know much about Websockets 1 week ago, all the experience I had with Websockets was when I developed a chat application back in 2016 using a JS framework that tried to be a Ruby on Rails implementation called SailsJS, so I decided to research about this technology and consumed multiple resources which I will link in this blog post and each section.

Perhaps Sails.js. They mention RoR. An Angular teacher used it to create a fast API.

I was just talking about this topic of whether we really has any Rails-influenced JS frameworks out there in the wild. And I struggled to come up with anything off the top of my head other than Sails.js [1]. RedwoodJS looks interesting, what about it in particular do you find exciting?

Sails JS – The MVC framework for Node.js

First hurdle. ExpressJS isn't a great framework on it's own for building web sites. You need to cobble together some combination of a view engine, templating etc otherwise out of the box you'll end up handcrafting HTML which I don't think is what you want right now. I'm not up on the latest server-side web frameworks and don't think now is the time to get into react + nodejs. So I'll just suggest Sails: https://sailsjs.com/. Follow their intro guides to get yourself a basic website with text entry.
