The Hot Water

That feeling when you create a complex webapp in 5 minutes with Node.js

To be or not to be,
or who am I
.. or am I?

Putting ALL THE BADGES on my README

I need a client library for that provider

geekli.st

... and I want it now

I want integration for Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn ...

Helping the CTO sound like he knows what he’s talking about

Search for client library module

• third party modules for facebook, twitter, linkedin
• "official" modules
• modules specifically to implement a feature - flickr

Problems

• inconsistencies between all those third party APIs
• parts of the REST API are not implemented
• underlying request/response is not exposed
• ...

Solutions

• fixing bugs in existing modules
• implementing missing features
• implementing our own client library modules

Purest's Design Goals

• common interface for any REST API provider
• writing expressive code directly into your application
• no need for any other documentation than the official one for the provider
• writing higher level modules - 600px
• writing application layer wrappers for multiple providers - examples
