Top 5 Open Source Node.JS Projects
1. NDB
NDB is an improved debugging experience for Node.js, enabled by Chrome DevTools. Here are some of the features:
- Child processes are detected and attached to.
- You can place breakpoints before the modules are required.
- You can edit your files within the UI. On Ctrl-S/Cmd-S, DevTools will save the changes to disk.
- By default, ndb blackboxes all scripts outside current working directory to improve focus. This includes node internal libraries (like
_stream_wrap.js,async_hooks.js,fs.js) This behaviour may be changed by "Blackbox anything outside working dir" setting.
2. Carbon Now CLI
Beautiful images of your code — from right inside your terminal. Seriously, create amazing screenshots (like the one below) from right in your terminal:
Oh, and everything is customizable.
