Package Recommendations

CrabDude commented 9 years ago

Servers (in order): express, hapi, sails, koa, loopback
- Ideally these would have at least 1 authoritative getting started with X blog post and 1 video
Promises
- bluebird (performance), babel's built-in language implementation , q (feature-filled)
ORM
- sequelize, mongoose, node-orms2, juggling db, bookshelf, waterline (from sails)
utilities
- lodash (mention mixins like string), request, lazy underscore
- nconf for hierarchical configuration

What success looks like: Succinctness and clarity. Less is more. Reference Wikis: Authentication & Authorization, Setup

Open separate issues for required links to community sources if you're having trouble finding any.

As far as package recommendations, I'd prefer all the recommendations to be 1st-hand, so feel free to grab any out of there that you either have experience with, or have vetted personally. There are A LOT of bad node.js packages out there, many I've found through blog posts.
