Review on Sails.js by William Dean

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool, not as good as it could have been using a different database

I like that every line of code is written in JS or CoffeeScript instead using JavaScript which would be less readable when you have many lines as this app does! There isn't much but what there's just works well enough for us so far - no issues at all here either way we look upon sails/nodeJS framework though maybe if more people were familiar with their APIs then some features could get improved faster (maybe?)I don;t really know why they changed from mongodb database driver since last time i used node was about 2 years ago before even express came out!? It also seems not possible anymore than use both passport & nodemailer together without having an error while trying run my local server(s).

We needed something simple yet powerful API allowing developers access only by signing up new accounts through our system via email verification process plus storing info such profile pictures etc.

Pros
  • Simple, easy to configure
  • Very fast response speeds compared against other services
  • No downtime ever experienced during peak hours.
  • Fast deployment times across platforms including AWS EC2 instances running Ubuntu Linux OS along Amazon Web Services servers
Cons
  • Some disadvantages
