I just wanted to gauge interest levels in an e-book that goes through building a complete web application using React and NodeJS?

It would explain how to:

- Create a webserver with user authentication \n- Hook up and work with databases via an ORM.\n- Generate API endpoints \n- Connect API Endpoints with a front-end framework like React\n- Explain how React and Flux works with APIs\n- Tips and Best Practices on building out a CRUD application using this framework\n- Security \n- Maintenance\n- Best practices in Production

Questions:\n1) Would you be interested? \n2) Would you pay for it if it was good, and had sample chapters? \n3) Where do you get this information now?","time":1481491969,"title":"Ask HN: Interested in an e-book on building web apps with Node.js and React?","type":"story"}],[10623112,{"by":"negrit","descendants":33,"id":10623112,"kids":[10623494,10623603,10623662,10623489,10623904,10623767,10623474,10623859,10623725,10623708,10623665,10623808],"score":13,"time":1448394418,"title":"Airline Baggage Fees Are a Good Deal for Travelers","type":"story","url":"https://www.flexport.com/blog/airline-baggage-fees-are-a-good-deal-for-travelers/"}],[9983957,{"by":"beebs93","descendants":4,"id":9983957,"kids":[9984186,9984686,9984129],"score":5,"text":"Quick backstory:

I applied for a Senior role with a medium-ish company and after 3 interviews and 3 successful code tests they said they thought I'd be a great fit and wanted to make me an offer.

A week goes by and I get the standard "we decided not to pursue this any further" email with no explanation. I emailed back and after a quick phone call discovered they wanted to hire me, but senior management was looking for a much more "junior hybrid role".

A quick meeting with senior management at the beginning would have avoided wasting my time of going through all those interviews and code tests.

So my big questions:

So is this normal practice? All but hire first THEN ask if the company even needs it?\nDo I really need to ask at the first interview if they've green lit this need with senior management?

Thanks for any feedback!","time":1438372196,"title":"Ask HN: When do you green light tech positions with management?","type":"story","url":""}]]
