Our mission is to compare the node.js frameworks on productivity.
In one of my previous blogs I have benchmark the various node.js frameworks performance against native http call and native mongodb driver and native combination was clear winner in term of performance.
https://blog.talentica.com/2017/11/14/comparing-performance-of-node-js-frameworks/
so, Why not use only native http and native mongodb driver. well one of the the key aspect and usp of node.js frameworks is that they provide lot of abstractions and as a developer you don’t have to write boiler plate , repetitive code . so lets see what our research has come up with against this concept.
as contrast to last time we will start with result first
Now before Analyzing the result its important to put the benchmark methodologies into the plate . we are taking three factors into account when its comes to productivity
for our research we are building a blog authoring /publishing site like worpress, we are taking four features in order of their complexities
below is data points for an application built using express and mongoose.
native http + native mongo Driverwe did same thing for the following frameworks
express+moongoose
koa+mongoose
hapi+mongoose
Node-Data
in our chart thats how we have got out man-hours for each of framework as the complexity increases in yaxis( for more complexity we increase the no of features).
lets understand the results in the chart
Conclusion
if you are building node.js application and expecting lot of features and expecting complexities , you should pick one of the frameworks instead of using native http or native drivers , we have put lot of effort to increase developer productivity and ability to handle complex situations ..
