Re: Which JavaScript framework would you recommend for IBM i?

I just got done putting together a sample** Node.js CRUD app using
ExpressJs. It is for an IBMSystemsMag.com article that will probably be
published in the next month.

**http://bit.ly/ibmi-node-crud-app

ExpressJs is the primary framework I've been using. Hapi was birthed by
Walmart Labs because they needed more than ExpressJs could offer. Here's
some reading that compares the two:

In exploring Node.JS on the IBM i, I will eventually want to learn about
using a JavaScript framework for routing requests.

I know Express.JS is very popular. But I've also read pretty good things
about Hapi.JS. I know there are other frameworks out there as well. I'm
trying to figure out which framework to install on the IBM i.

Has anybody actually started using Express.JS, Hapi.JS, or a comparable
framework on the IBM i?

I assume Express.JS, Hapi.JS, and comparable JavaScript frameworks would
all be equally easy to use with the Node.JS toolkits that IBM has provided
(that use XMLSERVICE). Is this assumption correct? I don't know what I
don't know here.
