Hi there!
- I choose js/node as my server-side language of choice. This is because I love both js the language and node itself, and so far haven't seen the need to try something else. That doesn't mean, however, that it should be the solution for everyone. Particularly if you don't like js - you're probably better off programming in a language you enjoy!
- I have rambled a bit about js style here: https://github.com/fpereiro/ustack#mes5-a-javascript-subset . My approach, however, is very minimalistic and backward-looking (or aspiring to timelessness, if you're being very kind), so I recommend it very cautiously. You might be better off using more language features, particularly those that come in ES6-7-8. For all of this, I'd rather leave this content separately in the ustack repo.
