I finally took the time to dive into node.js and I must say, its pretty awesome.

  1. It’s Server-Side JavaScript

  2. It can handle a massive amount of concurrent requests

  3. It’s very easy to pickup

  4. The community is currently VERY active on IRC room on freenode and mailing list.

Many of the other developers I talked to are busy contemplating the current node.js application framework scene and plotting out their own node.js application frameworks. Having started and stopped countless framework projects, I wanted to start somewhere a bit more tangible (and useful): the debugger.
