JavaScript OOP in NodeJS: how?

Question

I am used to the classical OOP as in Java.

What are the best practices to do OOP in JavaScript using NodeJS?

Each Class is a file with module.export

Answer 1

In the Javascript community, lots of people argue that OOP should not be used because the prototype model does not allow to do a strict and robust OOP natively. However, I don't think that OOP is a matter of langage but rather a matter of architecture.

If you want to use a real strong OOP in Javascript/Node, you can have a look at the full-stack open source framework Danf. It provides all needed features for a strong OOP code (classes, interfaces, inheritance, dependency-injection, ...). It also allows you to use the same classes on both the server (node) and client (browser) sides. Moreover, you can code your own danf modules and share them with anybody thanks to Npm.
