Comment on Express 5.0 – Last Push

I can't believe it finally happened, 10 years later. Congratulations to the team for finally finishing.

In the meantime I've gotten so sick of js-isms i jumped ship and no longer want to touch it. Server-side nodejs libraries have always felt less mature and more prone to excessive complexity than their counterparts.

Python+sqlalchemy+sanic/other lightweight HTTP server is just so much more comfortable to me nowadays. Much less performant, though, but a painless development experience that lets me focus on the task at hand just feels better.

Maybe I'll port some of my legacy nodejs stuff to express 5 for fun.

Same. Moved to laravel and honestly happy that I left the js ecosystem.
