Tools, projects, and examples for FeathersJS developers in 2020 from DailyJS – Medium

As any JavaScript framework community grows, it becomes difficult to navigate which avenues developers have to look for solutions to problems they have encountered. FeathersJS has continually been at the forefront of JavaScript discussions since its inception, as illustrated in the annual State of JS survey. We created FeathersJS Resources as a hub, or rather a starting point, to assist people in the Feathers community find what they may be searching for.

There are many resource lists available, however, we noticed a lacking of curated examples. Our goal with this list is to provide an up-to-date account of which libraries are maintained, projects are active, and examples of FeathersJS in the wild. Our general rules for curation are as follows:

  • projects on npm must have been published in the past two years;
  • projects on GitHub must have been updated in the past two years;
  • projects should be well documented;
  • articles and tutorials should be topical to the FeathersJS community;
  • examples should use FeathersJS as a part of their stack;
  • support channels should be qualified by the FeathersJS core team.

Not to overestimate our abilities to keep track of all projects in the ecosystem, we have a channel for people to submit projects for review, which can be added to the Feathers Resources site.

With the above criteria, we have broken the list into several categories which will certainly be expanded as time goes on. A few notable examples from each category are:


Articles and Tutorials

How we debug Feathers APIs using Postman

Author Juan Orozco details a general process, conventions, and steps on how Aquil.io uses Postman to develop and debug APIs with Feathers. A few gotchas are elaborated and patterns on how Aquil.io rapidly develops APIs are explained. Read article

Build a CRUD App Using React, Redux and FeathersJS

Author Michael Wanyoike takes readers through getting a contact manager application set up with Feathers, Create React App, and MongoDB. The benefits of following conventions in REST and a bit of Feathers background is explained with a concrete example. Read article

Tools

feathers-hooks-common

feathers-hooks-common is a suite of hooks allowing developers to architect common processes in a composable fashion. Readable hook flows are created such as: iff(isProvider(‘external’), disallow()). Learn more

feathers-sync

feathers-sync allows for scaling Feathers APIs and keeping socket events in sync through an intermediary data source, such as Redis. With this project, a modifying request, such as a POST, may ping a single server while the {service}::created event will be relayed to all other servers in the cluster and their corresponding subscribers. Learn more

Support

Feathers Slack channel

The official channel for FeathersJS discussions. Open to the public and staffed by the core team. The core maintainer and author, David Luecke, is typically available to answer in depth questions regarding the usage of Feathers. Slack channel

Office hours

Members of the FeathersJS core team and experts at Aquil.io are available for questions that may require a call or a screen share to debug or discuss issues the community is facing. Developers at Aquil.io have been power users of Feathers since 2014 and have experience in many of the nuances in real-world settings. Visit aquil.io

Our hope is this list provides a bit of direction, if you are new to the community, and a place to quickly find support if you need it. The above is a sample, but be sure to read the full list at feathersresources.dev.

Making open source JavaScript pay

Image
Money isn’t everything to the success of the most popular JavaScript frameworks. Or is it? Looking at the  2019 State of JavaScript report , something stands out: Money apparently can’t buy everything. Or, at least, not every major front-end and back-end programming framework is sponsored by a big company. Sure, we have Google to thank for  Angular , and Facebook gets credit for  React , but what about  Vue.js ? Or Gatsby? Or Next.js? While these (and other) open source projects do seem to suggest a future without Big Corps shoveling Big Money into open source, the reality is a bit more nuanced. For the developers looking to pay their way through open source, however, reality isn’t nuanced at all. For every Vue.js founder  Evan You making $16,000 per month with Patreon contributions , there are thousands of developers struggling to scrape together $16 for the important open source work they’re doing.

How artificial intelligence is making the education system more relevant?

Image
Digital learning solutions equipped with artificial intelligence are making revolutionary changes to the way education is imparted in students with varied interests and capabilities. When we think of artificial intelligence, there is a hardwired imagery of gigantic thinking machines working in sci-fi environment. This imagery often comes from the science fiction that we have been watching or reading since childhood. However, deep diving suggests that artificial intelligence is an advanced form of algorithm that empowers machines to emulate human behavior under real life situations. Today, there is no industry untouched by the ripples caused by artificial intelligence. Education sets the foundation of human behavior. Educational ecosystem is formed by knowledge base, teaching skills and experience, learning capability, and evolving teaching methods. Digital learning solutions equipped with artificial intelligence are making revolutionary changes to the way educat...

What Is Brutalism in Web Design?

Image
3   min read   Brutalism is a special breed of web design, working well for quirky, creative brands and individuals. However, this rule-bending design technique must be employed with care. Read this guide to find out how. Brutalism is one of those trends that seems to come and go in web design. It’s not because there isn’t much value in brutalist design. It’s more that it doesn’t always fit with the style and tone of the times.  That’s part of what makes brutalism so intriguing though. When most websites tend to fall in line and adopt the same basic trends from year to year, a website that doesn’t play by the rules can easily steal the spotlight.  You just need to know whether that’s the right kind of light you want to shine on the brand. Brutalism can sometimes come off as cold and somber. If it’s not properly executed or not used for the right kind of brand, it can send the wrong signals to website visitors.  In this guide to brutalism in web design, we’l...
