Ask HN: Stable API framework for Node.js

Hi, as I can see JS ecosystem is evolving very fast compared to other languages.

Currently I need REST API framework to be supported (active community, bug fixing) ~5 years from now for my new project.

I know there are sites like http://nodeframework.com/ but I would like opinions from community about battle tested frameworks used in real applications, raw stars on github are not good measurement for me.

Any recommendations?

I think loopback is the framework to go if you are building an REST API. It's very easy to setup and very powerful.

I think there can be a bias towards newness in the JS ecosystem, but Express is well supported and stable.
