I finally escaped Node
From the title, I was expecting the article on something along the lines of how, where and why developers can move from Node.js. However the arguments are not so solid and there is no migration path. We all know Elixir is great but the adoption and maturity is low as compared to JS.<p>Yes, Node is not perfect but (with TypeScript added) tell me a development platform that can run under 100 MB of memory, handle most requests under 50 ms, can spin up a http service in a day or so and still perform well under load (and scales horizontally with ease).<p>On top, any organization can hire JS devs with relative ease. And the same devs can also use the same skills to build a frontend.<p>I am not a JS/TS/Node fan but unfortunately it seems we do not have a better story to sell right now and we are stuck here for a while.
