I am new to node.js in general (as well as servers, javascript and the internet in general). I am setting up a node.js server and I want to be able to create user accounts.
Assumption 1: this requires the use of some kind of database.
At first, I was going to go with mySQL, because this is the first DBMS I could think of, and it is open source, and there is a node.js. module there. But, while browsing the stack overflow and other sites, everyone talks about using mongoose, redis, and other things.
What should i use? Why should I use it? How far from the point am I?
