Thanks to Node.js, we're able to share complex backend logic directly with the front end, improving not only dev velocity, but also reducing HTTP requests and improving UI feedback speed. We also benefit from the largest community and ecosystem of tools and libraries in the world.

QuitSugar: Track & Cut Sugar

(139 points)

Node.js excels in building fast, scalable backend systems. Its non-blocking, event-driven architecture is perfect for handling Quit Sugar's real-time data, like logging sugar intake and collaborating with friends. Unlike traditional backends like PHP or Ruby on Rails, Node.js integrates easily with frontend technologies, ensuring a smooth and efficient development. Its extensive ecosystem of libraries via npm made building APIs quick and hassle-free.

Life Minute Photos

(154 points)

Life Minute Photos needs blazingly amazing performance to work. For example, if you have 10,000 photos, set the timing to 1 minute, and have 4 pictures (grid) showing at the same time, each grid will display 2,500 photos for approximately 24ms per photo. If there are 20,000 photos, the timing goes down to 12ms. Node is able to return responses from our backend local server to our frontend in 1-2ms. This makes it possible for us to download new images and metadata very, very quickly as the experience keeps running.
