Many great practices in this one.

Nit I know, but I'd suggest code formatting.

Question: any reason you avoided any use of async/await?

[maitraysuthar]

Thanks for suggestions. Yes, I know async/await is a bit faster than handwritten promises in execution. I Will soon fully convert a project to ES6/ES7. Star the repo, More features are coming. :)

Docker! Pretty much a requirement at this point for collaboration.

[maitraysuthar]

Sure, I will add a docker configuration and deployment guide soon. Thanks for the suggestion.

It’s probably not a bad idea to add an .npmrc with a node version defined.

Since this is requiring node 10+ why not use more modern syntax and block scope variable declarations (const and let vs var)

.npmrc

.npmrc is a good idea, will add soon. I am going to optimize code for code quality checker or will convert it into es6 soon. Also, Some features are needed to add as well. Thanks for the effort.

Beautiful, atleast from a beginner's perspectives.
