    <p>I was wondering how one would go about developing a website from scratch with Node.js. I understand how I could <em>possibly</em> do it, but I am interested in the <em>best</em> design practice.</p> <p>I need this theoretical website to:</p> <ol> <li>Do a lot of AJAX</li> <li>Be very straightforward</li> <li>Be relatively small</li> <li>Connect to... let's say a MySQL server</li> </ol> <p>In PHP, building a pretty small website was very straightforward - I set up PHP on Apache and a MySQL server and then do something like:</p> <ul> <li><code>includes/db/</code> which has connect.php for connecting to the db, a file with common db related functions and so on</li> <li><code>includes/layout/</code> which had stuff like footer.php, header.php, and other layout related stuff</li> <li><code>includes/users/</code> to handle user related actions</li> </ul> <p>Then PHP just let you build pages and include these files together to form a website - I could go something like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php require_once('inclues/users/user_session.php'); require_once('inclues/db/connect.php'); require_once('inclues/design/header.php') ?&gt; // Other php or html or related content relating to the page &lt;?php require_once('inclues/.../footer.php'); ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>I was wondering what might be similar in Node.js - I am looking for a way to accomplish this which is as <strong>simple</strong>, <strong>fast</strong> and <strong>straightforward</strong> as possible.</p> <p>If the answer is not simple, I would love a book recommendation, I don't mind reading.</p> <p>I love event based programming, I really love JavaScript's abilities and I'm really excited about Node.js. I want to learn how to develop this sort of stuff with it the right way from the start.</p>

    1. COI would also like to point out that it is very important to test your code using for example mocha -> https://github.com/visionmedia/mocha. Create small well tested modular code(modules).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
