Automatically reload your node.js app on file change with Gulp (https://github.com/wearefractal/gulp).
// NOTE: I previously suggested doing this through Grunt, but had plenty of problems with
// my set up. Grunt did some weird things with scope, and I ended up using nodemon. This
// setup is now using Gulp. It works exactly how I expect it to and is WAY more concise.

This was a small test I created to determine the fastest Cipher (an algorithm used for encryption/decryption) available in NodeJS. There was a huge variation between the best (aes-128-ofb at 305.6934) and the worst (bf-ecb at 1024.3660).
var crypto = require('crypto');
var _ = require('underscore')._;
// Returns elapsed time in milliseconds
function get_elapsed_time(startTime) {
var diff = process.hrtime(startTime);
// (seconds to milliseconds) + (nanoseconds to milliseconds)
return (diff[0] * 1000) + (diff[1] / 1000000);

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

Sharing modules between NodeJS and AngularJS

They say that one of the pros of NodeJS is that you use the same language on the back-end and the front-end, so it's easy to share code between them. This sounds great in theory, but in practice the synchronous dependency handling in NodeJS works completely different than any client-side frameworks (which are asynchronous).

Usually that means that you end up copy-pasting your code between your NodeJS sources and your client-side sources, or you use some tool like Browserify, which is brilliant, but they add an extra step in the build process and most likely will conflict with the dependency handling of the framework of your choice (like AnularJS DI). I couldn't look in the mirror if I would call that code sharing.

Fortunately, with a couple of lines of boilerplate code, you can write a module which works in NodeJS and AngularJS as well without any modification.

No globals in the front-end, and dependencies will work. The isNode and isAngular va
