We’ve been with hellosign for years and Dropbox has done a great job of stabilizing them. I will tell you that they have put in a ton of ops work to keep the platform up more consistently.


True, they have been more stable since the acquisition now that you mention it.

Our implementation of their API was a bit of a mess so it can be hard to see through our own crap sometimes to give credit where its due haha.


This is fairly close https://sailsjs.com. I've used it on some side projects and it definitely felt like it made doing node apps faster than doing things by hand.


These are still around. You just have to shop for them a bit.

I just bought 5 lbs. on Amazon, but they are recently discontinued, so once they're gone, they're gone.

This is a dubious assertion. Best is fundamentally a subjective metric. Code is only the best for a given set of criteria. What's best code for rapid development isn't best for maintainability. Sometimes you have to break maintainability for speed bottlenecks. Saying there's a best way to code something is a very contextual claim.


Meld has an osx app now too. It's solid.


I managed to get a developer phone with Firefox OS at a dev conference. I can say that hands down it's the worst phone I've ever tried using. I used it as my primary phone for a week and the operating system made me avoid doing anything. Making a phone call was the most pleasant, but if I had to send a text or try and use one of the apps I just found myself locking the phone. The webapp as a phone app idea was just really unpleasant especially if you had limited connectivity.

I admire Mozilla for trying, but that OS would have taken a miracle to get it working in a good fashion.


I seriously considered buying a ZTE - until I checked out user reviews online. The os is universally hated.


I ran into this problem as well, killed java and the light app and restarted (./light table) and it worked.
