pavingways··on Hackathon Starter – Boilerplate for Node.js web application
Sure!

I guess when I decided everyauth over passport about 4 months ago (there was an actual decision process IIRC) it seemed like everauth was more mature, I found more examples and other repos explaining how I could bend it to my needs.

Recently I've come across passport quite often and it appears to be the gold standard nowadays... So yes it's going in at some point in time (this is a minor side project only).

I will happily merge a pull request if you care to go for it - I currently only support facebook and twitter and was working on local user/pass up until an hour ago ... ;)

I know it's shameless, but what are comments for if not self-promotion... I'm working on something like that too:

My focus is on clean structure, completeness of tools and documentation (mostly inline) so you not only get a node/express/jade/everyauth/mongodb app but also can learn what's going on and how it all works together.

SPA app on top coming up ...

JS pseudo-protocol is bad practice
pavingways··on How to build a location-based hybrid mobile app with reverse geocoding
i just tried the app (iPhone4, iOS 5.1): - camera/gallery selection does not go away, have to hit "cancel" - star rating seems broken at first (apparently to small hit targets for finges) - location in list has broken icon/image to the left - broken image in detail view - native bars gone after a few screens, must kill/restart app - maps work

so far this is less than impressive. reading the post made me wanna try trigger.io, playing with the app made me decide otherwise - not production ready it seems.
