The main point of my blog post was to show our positive experience by using something new to build something new. I'm not talking about renewing your existing backend, changing your perfect PHP implementation to Node.js, I'm talking about our story of choosing a platform for our new project and suggesting people out there to be open to trying new platforms according to their needs. I know the feeling, I did the same before. I have used PHP for projects that I had better alternatives for, just because it felt comfortable and hassle-free.
In our case we have tried several other platforms/languages and the best fit was Node.js for us. “Do the research, be a developer not just an X language developer” would probably sum up my whole point.
