What's up people? I've been wanting to write a game and have been looking at both iOS and the web. After I found out I need a Mac to make iOS games that sealed the deal: I'm making a game for the web.
JavaScript is my first programming language so everything I need to do is a bit tricky, but I have a very basic prototype with a Node.js server and an HTML5/JS client which draws with Canvas and which are talking over Socket.io. Am I doing okay so far? ;) What I haven't really found yet is a good library for doing the glue between Socket.io and Canvas. What should I use, or is that code better to write by hand? I took a look at Backbone.js briefly and it seems like it might be what I want? I have blogged about my experiences here so far if you would be interested in reading: http://nodeblode.wordpress.com/2012/04/08/down-the-javascript-rabbit-hole/ Am I on the right track so far? Also is it better to learn JavaScript or CoffeeScript? -- DC -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
