| 21:08.10 | allejo | nope, that's a very early proof of concept project |
| 21:08.17 | The_Noah | Okay. |

| 21:25.25 | The_Noah | Where there be a public REST API in the future? |
| 21:27.25 | allejo | yup, that's the next step for the bz infrastructure |
| 21:29.21 | The_Noah | Yay! |
| 21:29.36 | The_Noah | I love working with backends, is there any way I could help? |
| 21:32.24 | allejo | sure! when we start work on it :) we don't have much planned or drawn out yet. still in the proof of concept stage for now |
| 21:33.19 | blast007 | The_Noah: I just started looking at https://api-platform.com/ |
| 21:33.54 | blast007 | that's one possibility for what we would use for the backend stuff |

| 21:34.14 | blast007 | I don't think I would use their front-end stuff since I'm not a fan of React or Vue.js |
| 21:35.12 | blast007 | another option would be using OpenAPI/swagger tools to generate the backend stuff |
| 21:40.54 | The_Noah | Have you thought about using Express (Node.js) |
| 21:41.13 | allejo | bleghh |
| 21:44.29 | allejo | our infrastructure is mainly built with PHP. if we'd move away from it, it definitely wouldn't be to JS |
| 21:47.37 | The_Noah | Okay. |
| 21:48.26 | blast007 | JS itself isn't a great language |
| 21:49.29 | blast007 | and the whole deeply nested node_modules thing with npm drives me crazy |
| 21:49.58 | blast007 | and then there's stuff like this.. https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-nan |
| 21:53.20 | allejo | speaking from first hand experience (I use JS + Express at work), it's definitely not the way we we'd want to build this |
| 21:53.42 | The_Noah | Makes sense, PHP is a really nice language. |
| 21:55.26 | blast007 | for me, a big thing with PHP is the minimal friction to get it to do something neat |
