Editor's Notes
- #2: JS mindset change from frontend to backend number of proc -1 what is helmet
- #3: Cine sunt (3PG. JS developer). Cand nu lucrez si nu sunt la tim.js, I’m a dad
- #4: Daca vii din PHP, getting started in JS Daca vii din frontend, getting started in node.js JS e asociat cu lumea UI in general, dar astazi as vrea sa pun la indoiala aceasta mentalitate
- #5: Session: PHP session_start(), $_SESSION Passport: authentication middleware for Node.js
- #6: Helmet: CSP(load only code from safe servers), noCache, X-Frame-Options PM2: Process manager with built in load balancer. Supports node process scaling
- #7: Upgrading from express with ejs pages to modern UI stack you just need to replace web routes with your SPA. Hope you enjoyed listening to this as much as I enjoyed talking about it.
