"The Art of War" in full stack Javascript #2

With the introduction and widespread usage of Node.js, Javascript has become more viable for homogeneous full stack development. But now that we have a single tool that can wrangle the whole stack, from bare metal to front end, how can we utilize it with maximum performance, regardless of implementation?

Enter "The Art of War" from Sun Tzu, a military strategy book more than 2000 years old, comprising of thirteen chapters, each of which dedicated to one aspect of warfare. By utilizing these principles and applying them to full stack development, we can create reliable systems that are highly adaptible.

The general idea is for developers attending Nodeconf EU to be inspired and shown that some methods they are using today have been created more than two thousand years ago. I would touch every chapter of the book, giving an insight into them with parallels for full stack development with Javascript, with several real life military examples and showcases of heroes that have done feats of strength due to their morals and beliefs. Since we, as full stack developers, are heroes on our own.
