joe_g Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) heyhey, here is something off topic: Are there any MEAN/node devs here? Just a general question, I'm interested in nodejs, but what's holding me back is that to get to the same level of slickness of an admin interface as processwire seems to be very hard work. It seems easy enough in both RoR and Django, for example, but with node, not as easy. Making admin interfaces is such an incredible drag, this is one of the reasons why I love PW. Clients love that slick custom admin they get to work with. Just curious to hear if anyone had any experience with writing an admin interface based on MEAN/node, from a processwire perspective. - CRUD with - relationships (like pages in PW) - users - access levels / groups - access rights - multilingual (very important) I should mention that I'm not looking for any presentation layer (templates/views, etc). Only a way to handle the data (with some custom data model) in a client-friendly way. cheers, J Edited November 9, 2014 by kongondo As you rightly said...this is off-topic.

adrian Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I have been delving into the world of node and MEAN lately and haven't found anything to compare to PW for content management. The only things I have really come across are: CMS https://pencilblue.org/ http://keystonejs.com/ User management http://everyauth.com/http://passportjs.org/http://jedireza.github.io/drywall/ Not much help I know. Have you thought about using PW as a web service to provide content to your MEAN app? or perhaps a module that duplicates content to a mongo db when a page is saved in the PW admin? I'll probably be thinking about this more over the next few months, so I'll try to remember to post any ideas here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
