If your project becomes popular, you can consult for companies that are using it. The folks at Ember do this.

Otherwise, you can charge a fee for a commercial license.

Or you could just go to any non-http site like http://purple.com.

Nice work!

I said front-end webserver, not backend server. Not sure what lessons you are referring to. Lots of people use Node in production for large-scale applications. You don't need 20-30 years of experience either.

Hey, as a followup to this post, check this out: http://nodewebapps.com/2016/12/20/create-a-web-app-with-user...

Made it especially with you in mind. And it's free.

I work at SoundHound as a Senior Software Engineer, and take part in interviewing/hiring. Full-stack JavaScript engineers are still in very short supply. Lots of people claim to know JavaScript but many fall short when working across the stack. When I say full-stack, I mean being responsible for building and managing everything the front-end webserver (NodeJS), Database (Postgres/MySQL), and front-end (usually ReactJS/Flux).

Also backend and data engineering roles (C++/Java/Go/Kafka/etc) are in high demand here.

SoundHound is hiring in SF/Santa Clara/Toronto.

I would recommend SailsJS. It's built with Express, so you get the Express ecosystem, but it comes with a lot of things that production-apps need out of the box, like security (CORS, CSRF), REST API generation, code conventions (models, controllers, views), etc.

I believe they went through YC, actually.

Are you talking about server-rendered websites with NodeJS?

Thank you for your feedback!

Just to add why I'm asking this:

I've just been building stuff out in Node/JS-land for a while and just want to give something back to the community. So I'm thinking about starting an e-book or a series of blog posts to educate people in things that I've learned. Learning people's use cases gives me a better understanding of how I can write things that genuinely solve pain points.

I would really appreciate it if people could PM me some type of contact info so I can keep in touch with anyone who is interested. My email is tilomitra[at]gmail[dot]com.

Are you struggling just with setup?

You can buy certain Vanguard Funds from Canada. For example: VAB, VSB, VCN.

Well it is 15% but you are paying income tax on it because you aren't holding it for a year. So depending on your tax situation, it may be closer to 7-10%. Still good though.

Focus on the product, not the technology used to build it. If your tech decisions (vanilla Redux) makes you productive, then use that. Otherwise, you'll be stuck in a never-ending loop of upgrading your stack all the time.

You have to convince the bloggers by answering the question: "What's in it for me?"

Some tips are: - Release a new feature and offer a blog an exclusive to blog about it. Blogs like exclusives. Make them get back to you by a certain time, and FOMO may kick in. - Provide a blog a discount code that they can offer their readers. - When reaching out to the bloggers, choose the writer carefully. Ideally, find someone who is interested in your niche and has written about it before. Introduce yourself by talking about how you liked his/her past articles, and how this relates to that.

Good luck!

How do you source the data for your app? Is it all user-generated?

Nice work! Great docs.

Ouch. Anyone affected by this?

Try Houndify from SoundHound! (www.houndify.com).

I use React-Router, a couple of "Reactified" Semantic UI components (Accordian, Tooltip, Modals, Sticky, etc), and NuclearJS for the Flux implementation. I also use Semantic UI CSS.

That seems to do the job pretty well for me.

This looks cool. Is there a demo link that I can check out?

I'm one of the developers behind Houndify. Feel free to ask any questions.

I'm one of the developers behind Houndify. Thanks for this feedback, I'll look into it.

Pretty addicting!

You can customize the pack and choose not to include items that you already have. honeycombpacks.com/product/custom-honeycomb-travel-pack/

I use Sunrise and I hope they dont shut this app down, but I'm pretty sure they will.

Contrary to your perspective, I've grown up in Toronto, lived in the Bay Area, and have come back to Toronto because I genuinely feel it's a more balanced city to live in.

I'm specifically curious to know how many people have used Parse Core (the cloud DB service).

Yeah, the ability to click on attractions and view more information about them is coming in a later version of the app. That's something that I want too.

Good thinking. Sounds like v1.1.0.
