jsPerf backend v2.0.0 #174
Description
I don’t have time to maintain the jsPerf.com codebase anymore, at least not alone. However, the site is in need of a back-end rewrite & a new host. The current code is ancient (I wasn’t even born yet when I wrote it) and spaghetti PHP-flavored. There is no streamlined deploy process, either.
It would be great to rewrite the back-end in clean Node.js/io.js code and set up a deployment pipeline along the way. Thinking out loud, here’s some features the new back-end should ideally have:
- fully open-source
- simple & automated deployment process
- written in clean & modular Node.js/io.js, preferably
- database is currently MySQL — this could be changed into something else
The front-end code is fine and can remain as-is. The existing HTML, CSS, and JS can just be re-used. No new features have to be added to the site at all, although the new back-end would make it easier to do so in the future.
Anyone up for this, or willing to help with this?
