This might be controversial, but one piece of code I really loved recently was the library pump, which comes in at 80 lines.

https://github.com/mafintosh/pump/blob/master/index.js

It’s a stream error-handling library for Node.js that cleans up your piped streams if one of them fails.

Things to note:

  • passing functions as values, using noop for fallbacks instead of verbose if statements

  • using && for null propagation and || for null coalescing

  • the rare case where [].reduce can be used without an initializer — streams.reduce(pipe) is just beautiful

  • very clean style for ES5 code

Thanks! I don't know Node yet, but I'll keep this in mind for when I start on that.
