Hey man, thanks for insights. However, I couldn’t find any news related ExpressJS will be deprecated in 2024. Yes, we’re addicted to major changes and nonstop updates as JS developers (especially NextJS). But honestly, stability and slow development is not a bad thing at all especially for such simple concepts like Express JS. I’d appreciate if you could share where did you hear Express is going to be deprecated or development discountinued.

Hey folks! If you look at the video, you can see that the last commit in v5 beta 1 is from Sep 2022. This doesn't mean that the framework itself will be deprecated (the maintainer is really fast to reply on comments), but unfortunately the development is currently stuck 😃 Usually something is deprecated when a new version come out, so my bet would be that, if Express v5 will be ready in 2024, v4 (active from 10 years) will be replaced with 5

Typically when I see a video like this. A white dude in a hoodie doing "code news" I know most of what they're saying is bs. At their best they're regurgitating news from somewhere else like cable news pundits. At their worst, like here, they're making stuff up for the clicks. Either way, completely useless.

I am a flutter developer and have little knowledge of backend programming. So what would you suggest I learn for building rest apis for mobile applications. Golang or Node js or something else ?

To be honest I don't have much experience in Go, but Node.js (using Fastify) is definitely a good choice!

If you would be a React Native developer, nodejs could be a no-brainer. But since you’re already in Google’s ecosystem (Dart), Golang might be a better choice. In terms of performance, Golang is better than Nodejs as far as I know (using less resources, meaning lower cost). But if you’re also a JS dev, Nodejs is a great option too. It’s all about convenience in most cases.

In essence, avoid using Express.js if you are inexperienced in coding. The issues highlighted in the video primarily affect those who lack a proper understanding of Node.js, especially regarding 'performance'. Typically, this concern is raised by individuals who are not well-versed in threading and the utilization of multiple cores and lack knowledge about indexing and data structures.

it's all relative.. for most sites, express is still plenty fast to respond to it's requesters. If you need that much connections, than well. maybe refactoring/optimizing code is a thing.. or perhaps check other infra things, like load balancing node processes, use background worker processes, or optimize the db and the queries etc

If you want to replace Express with an equivalent alternative, your best choice is probably Bun & Hono. If you want to escape from JS on the server, Go & Fiber is a great choice too. Go is known for its speed, efficiency, and performance under high loads, so at the end it will depend on your requirements. I like both JS & Go, but I'd probably choose Go despite the load, it's a more compact and better language than JS in some aspects.

Can you elaborate why? There are already hundreds of people saying its better to use x and x. Also as far as I am concerned, Bun is a runtime and not a framework. Express is a framework that was built for NodeJS, which is a runtime. Never heard of Hono, but you must have reasons for suggesting Hono over fastify after the KZreadr just recommended fastify based on all the evidence and context provided.

The video is called "Using Express sucks", and inside you find all the Express problems baked by data and also a valid alternative. What is the clickbait? :)

I also moved my backend to fastify! 🎉

Hmm express 4.18.2 was released 2 years ago. 5.0.0-beta.1 was also released 2 years ago Oct and Feb respectively. I'm not an express fan boy but just saying this detail needs adjusting in this video @5:30.

It take 2weeks to learn a new technology or framework so choose tech you feel better if one become better than another one developers will naturally moove on it no need videos to explain this this is just natural

Good job bro keep working❤

Newsflash - it’s 2024 already, and ALL “web development tech” is deprecated. The whole idea of “apps” running inside a web browser is a broken idea that is past its use by date. There will still be a tonne of work in this area going forward, because it solves the distribution problem (for now), but if you are still investing yourself 100% in webdev, then you are living on borrowed time.
