Node.js and hapi
I have been using and enjoying Node.js, especially the part about asynchronous programming. For a hardware trained person, node should be a thrill.
https://nodejs.org/
From their website – “Node.js is a platform built on Chrome’s JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.”
Also express was my choice of framework to use node and just came across hapi – a newer and more interesting framework. hapi – Human Application Programming Interface
http://hapijs.com/
From their website – “A rich framework for building applications and services. hapi enables developers to focus on writing reusable application logic instead of spending time building infrastructure”
A nice comparison of express and hapi framework written by Jonathan Glock and is available here:

I built some simple http server for Internet Of Things applications and so far it looks very simple and easy to use.
