LoopBack 4 application in JavaScript

A POC in developing LoopBack 4 applications using JavaScript.

The branches stage-a, stage-b etc are steps that were taken to reach the final stage.

1. stage-a: Got a basic app running

• Files copied and set up from JS files emitted by TS
• Only code change -> ../../public ../public
• App is up
• /explorer available -> components work
• /ping available -> controllers work
• / loads -> - static assets served
• Code is messy for "human consumption" :D

2. stage-b: Optimized code for "human consumption"

• Created helper file for common utility functions
• Functionality intact

3. stage-c: Custom route

• /hi -> custom route works

4. stage-d: Added a model

• Created model
• Created datasource
• Created repository
• Created controller
• Code is messy for "human consumption"

5. stage-e: Optimize code for "human consumption"

• Model related files cleaned up and optimized
• Model and functionality intact

6. TODO: further optimization where decorate, metadata, and param are used.
