how to run derbyjs without mongo? #520

Closed julian-rare closed 7 years ago

julian-rare commented 7 years ago

Currently looking for a new isomorphic framework for my company, we rely on AWS heavily but they don't support mongo and I don't want derbyjs to start mongo even if its not being used, is it possible to start debryjs but with no mongodb?

Thanks for your interest, but honestly speaking I don't think it's the framework you're looking for. It was built few years ago as the proof of concept for isomorphic/universal pages, with the technology stack of the time in mind, which heavily influenced it's design. And although isomorphic/universal concept proved itself as the way to go, this current implementation outlived itself. So you'd be better off with some other, more modern and more maintained framework.

React is being obvious and most popular way to go for many projects, also you can check out other ones, like from this list.

Good luck.

PS. And I don't think anybody here can help you with derbyjs either, you could try to create issue in their own repo: https://github.com/derbyjs/derby
