Managing the Latent Complexity of SQL in JavaScript

Hey Everyone,

Join us this Thursday night at Capital Factory for food, drinks and JavaScript! This month's speaker will be John Fawcett from Goodybag... hope to see you there.

Managing the Latent Complexity of SQL in JavaScript

Why do noders gravitate towards Mongo? While the toolset is fantastic and it's super quick to get started, there is a viable relational alternative: Postgres. But how do you manage out of control SQL queries? What are the toolsets that make dealing with Postgres easy and how do we make sense of our database? In this talk, I'll cover how Postgres not only matches all of the features and ease of use of Mongo, it goes beyond with new node.js toolchains, new JSON support, and awesome performance.

I'm John, a full-stack engineer at Goodybag. By day, I'm working on node.js REST APIs using Postgres and managing our Require+Less+Backbone websites. By night, I'm refining my side projects, hiking and biking when I can, and drinking delicious coffee and beer.

See you Thursday,
