Create a new repo fastify/demo

[jean-michelet]

When I was in the PHP ecosystem, I worked with the Symfony framework. They have created a symfony/demo repo using what they consider best practices. I found the perspective of reading the code of a web project considered optimal by the core team very useful and reassuring.

Do you think it's worth it?
If so, I'm fully committed to work on it.

I'm not sure what the theme should be, though. It seems that the main type of development in the Node ecosystem are apis.

Imho

It is already too much work to maintain the core plugins. I have the feeling that few core deps need more love but we have currently no time.

It would be cooler if you first help with the other plugins before we open a demo repo.

If the core plugins are all green, a demo repo on top would be no Problem.

You mean code coverage?

Do you have a concrete example you are willing to share or would you like to start one?
Maybe we can start from there, have a look and decide further steps

I'd like to start a clean repo, following carefully the doc and trying to find interesting uses cases. Something basic at first, in order to gather your feedbacks and plan what to do next.

But I'd like to know if you're interested before jumping in.

Sorry @Uzlopak, I recently worked on an issue to increase test coverage on find-my-way and so I understood "all green" = 100% test coverage. I guess you meant I should help you with the issues on core plugins, right?

[metcoder95]

I believe any contribution can be of value, and this seems to provide good basics to start with fastify as framework; happy on my side to support you by giving a look at it 🙂

Thanks for the proposal @metcoder95,

It's not urgent so I can gradually work on this demo and looking at ongoing issues to help you with core plugins.

@mcollina, are you open to the idea of an official demo repo on your side?

[melroy89]

+3 I would like seeing such an official demo repo using several plugins like maybe autoload, cors, env, helmet, mysql and swagger. With some routes, controllers, etc.

Hey, I would love to help out with this. What is the status on this project?

[mcollina]

I am! https://github.com/fastify/demo here is the repo!

@hpmouton
I'm very interested in this project, both personally and professionally, so I'm going to work on it as a priority. I think you'll be able to help by review the first PR I will make, which aims to set up the architecture with simple routing, autoloader, tests and so on.

After this first step, we could create a more feature-oriented roadmap to collaborate?

Great stuff! Can't wait.

The demo project for now is just a README file :\ So.. I dunno if Matteo already added more example code without committing or not. Otherwise maybe a PR?

@mcollina maybe you want to be more explicit about what you did already without pushing to the git repo? Since you want to avoid people doing duplicate work. Or did you only setup a README, LICENSE and a gitignore thus far?
