Edidiong Asikpo was just given excuses. They probably decided I didn't have enough work experience.

Really nice one Edidiong Asikpo . I wish I could tap from this energy and share my first interview for a fulltime role. Was just a few days ago. I got an offer but unfortunately, it was rescinded today.

Nice article!

Glad you found it helpful ☺

Hello Guillaume, It's definitely better practice to put the cache logic in a middleware function and not directly inside a route handler. This way if you have multiple routes that needs to be cached, you can just call the middleware. Imagine adding the cache logic directly into your routes, that will be messy. It's just like have different routes that only an authenticated user can have access to. Note: If you query the /repos/:username endpoint and the cache already exists, yes, it returns the same response but this time, much faster. I hope that was helpful. 😃

Glad you found it helpful. :)

Yes. Cos the event loop which Node.js applications runs on is single-threaded. But it can also be multi-threaded when the app makes use of standard libraries which run on the libuv threadpool like the crypto library.

Thank you!
