I don't know anymore. I joined this group partly because I wanted to learn Node.js, but I also knew that other places weren't particularly helpful. I have a lot of pent up frustration from all these times when I searched for answers on the internet, and saw nothing but people answering my questions, and other people's questions, with nothing but links to documentation (and literally nothing more), without really helping anyone.
And so I came here and found the same crap. And it's like, "what the hell..." Now here's where I get confused.. I find that when working with Node.js, and these particular modules for back end, there are a large number of predefined variables, which makes sense! But I have a tendency to over analyze them I suppose. But you've won. I'll leave.
