Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

Marionette.js module to manage authentication. Needs a server method that checks credentials returning true or false. Started from this blog post code: http://clintberry.com/2012/backbone-js-apps-authentication-tutorial/
App = new Marionette.Application();
App.addRegions {
"headerRegion": "#header"
"topMenuRegion": "#top-menu"
"mainRegion" : "#main"
}
App.on 'initialize:after', ->
Backbone.history.start()
