    Stop abusing .map()!

    Code snippets that use .map() should be used with .forEach() instead. . map() returns a new array - always - and if we don't need that array, we shouldn't use it in the first place. In this particular example there are only three items in the array so creating another three-element array won't bring any serious consequences.

    Clean architecture - making Node.js API shine!

    Clean architecture is a software design philosophy that advocates for the separation of layers of code. The separation of elements lends itself to easier testing, where we can test each module independently of others. In order to be flexible with project dependencies, use dependency injection mechanisms. Code on the inner layers can only move from the outer layers.
