Express.js with Node.js gives you the full pack, Im using it plus using javascript from the backend all to the front end with jQuery, knockout.js etc, you can have all your infrastructure just in one language.
Also Node.js gives you scalability and performance in the other hand with *Rails if your need something scalable or with awesome performance you end with some middleware or backend in Java or Scala.* *Also Im not sure why people find so special Rails, Yes Rails got its time on 2005 when went public and it was a fresh air of a framework but right now nothing special about it. * Maybe Ruby the language still have its charming but I prefer personally Javascript or Python but thats other story. =>>>> How true is the sentence which is in BOLD <<<==== did rails really lost its charm On Thu, Aug 30, 2012 at 5:10 PM, Colin Law <[email protected]> wrote: > On 30 August 2012 12:24, ANIKET KADAM <[email protected]> wrote: > > i know ruby basic well, and what about learning other option like node.js > > over Rails > > You said you had very little programming knowledge.
