I created a chat room. Because the world needs another very basic chat room. I made it with Node.js, Express, Socket.io, and CoffeeScript.

Because the world needs it, I created another To-Do List – but with super awesome “Pairwise Comparison Technology”. Try it out on the desktop and on your phone. It stores your list locally so you can come back and they’re still there. Was a fun exercise.

I used Backbone.js, Backbone.localStorage, and the Zurb Foundation Framework.

I love the open source community. Was sitting here thinking “I need my strings in titlecase, it’s a pain to do it myself. I wish underscore had more functions for strings.” And after about 5 seconds of wishing upon a search engine, I find underscore.string for tons of amazing string methods.

“npm install underscore.string”, then “require(‘underscore’)” and “_.mixin(‘underscore.string’)”, and w00t! I’m off and running with a ton of methods on strings like _.titleize(name), which is what I needed initially. Thank you, Esa, Eduard, and team.

Installed Node.js, npm, and Express last night and fired up my first Node.js server last night. Was super awesome.
