Here’s Why Just About Any Node Js Developer Won’t Do (and Why You Should Look for a Fast Learner)



Node.js development is undertaken for the creation of scalable server-side and networking applications. However, if your developer doesn’t keep track of the changes that the node.js libraries go through, almost every month, and is unable to address the version issues, if any, can he/she still develop the desired apps for you? The answer is no. For better results, you must hire someone who knows that node.js libraries have an active development cycle. It is also important for the developer to ascertain the platform’s feasibility so that you can take a look at other options, if the need be.


For instance, if you need to get some CRUD (create, read, update and delete) applications developed, he/she should be quick enough to tell you that node js development is perhaps not one of the best options for you in this case and that you should rather consider Ruby on Rails. But what if the node js developer is not willing to accept the platform’s limitations readily? Now, that can cost you a fortune, in terms of money as well as time. So it’s better to avoid hiring any such developer.
That being said, you may also want to look for another node js developer in Sydney, or wherever your business is based, if the one available for hiring is yet to learn the event-driven, functional programming aspects of the platform. He/she must move up the learning curve really fast.
