In progress

• Dev blog

  Keep track of things I’ve learned, tried, or want to try

• Node API

  Build an API from the ground up, implementing as many features as possible that would be beneficial/expected in a production-ready public API.

  I want to do everything from scratch where it makes sense so I can learn more about that feature. I don’t feel the need to write my own logger since that doesn’t seem like something that would ever come up in the future; it’s just writing messages to a file. Rate limiting and usage tiers seem interesting, though, and I want to try my hand at those before just reaching out for a package to do it for me.

  • Resource versioning
  • Offer multiple content types (eg JSON, XML) based on the provided Accept header
  • Auth
  • Error logging
  • Collect usage metrics
  • Usage tiers (SLAs)
  • Rate limiting
  • Full documentation (eg OpenAPI)
  • Tests
