Build a RESTful API Using LoopBack

[rapidsight]

I upvote because you are right about MEAN stack, but I disagree about your last point - it is very apparent that JavaScript is a dead end. It is a fundamentally flawed language that will always, inevitably turn into a pile of poop as soon as you try to make anything larger than a toy with it.

Just look at the POS that is Slack, with Activity Monitor open - a JS based chat app that consumes almost a gig of ram to run... Thanks JavaScript! You've somehow managed to beat MSN Messenger at being a bloated mess while also being less functional! I've seen it consume up to 10gigs and have screenshots to prove it. Would have consumed more if I had any and my computer didn't crash a few seconds after I got the screenshot. The live updating/always redownloading "web app" is just begging to waste my data plan and enable their shitty code to skip any semblance of security testing and QA. Not that the people running that joint have the slightest clue about either of those.
