saas-express-starter-kit VS readable-stream

So I have been working on a SaaS starter kit - a boilerplate code for a SaaS app, using node and express. Now that it has become useful to some people and the code is growing, I want to make sure thag the developer experience is not lost in an attempt to add more features. I thought having a clear project goals with principles(e.g. no opinion about styling) to follow will help with this. So here I have written down the goals and the principles that will make DevX better, need your feedback what other principles should I add? TIA

Best comment on how to structure your web app. There's a GitHub repo with boilerplate to follow this pattern

Agree. And that's where express boilerplate such as saas-express-starter-kit can become handy.

How will we do it within a week? We will use this starter kit template to start with common things structured and built out of the box (e.g. auth, email, events, etc.)

I choose Express, always. To speed up further, use the boilerplate - https://github.com/makeitcount/saas-express-starter-kit

It won't be a small discussion. Let's discuss this on the GitHub repo issues

If it's a readable stream, you can just directly consume it with an async iterator: https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#streams-compatibility-wit...

Node.js Stream

Note that the older Node.js streams API hasn't been deprecated or removed. It will co-exist with the new API, and it even provides a way to convert from a web stream and vice versa using the .fromWeb() and .toWeb() methods (both added in Node 17, although both methods still retain their experimental status).

Nodejs has piepes with its stream https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html

You then want what's invoked by that event to be consumed as a Response. NodeJS has something to replicate this with stream consumers where you can do all the response.text() you normally do.

First, we create a NodeJS ReadStream using fs.createWriteStream to open the test.log file in "append" mode. Then we start recursively looping using setTimeout. This simulates an application that logs text in the file at a variable rate. At each iteration:

This needs a comparison with streams, which is the standard way to achieve this in Node.js land.
