Node.js stack

The following is our stack for Node.js projects. Remember to use our generator.

• Hapi.js as the web framework

  Provides a lot of functionality out-of-the-box, which means more time to write the actual code for the project.

• Mocha as the test framework

  Has great tool support, is mature and has a big following.

• Unexpected for assertions

  Great documentation and even greater error messages. We also have a direct line to the developers.

• TestDouble for mocking

  After much trial-and-error with different mocking frameworks, this turned out to be the best one. It replaces terms from computer science with actual words and matches our own philosophy (most of the time).

• Eslint for linting

  Great tool support and lots of options.
