From Mongoose Models to a Real-time API with FeathersJS

The story of a migration A couple of months ago, I started working on a collaborative platform for people to efficiently work together on projects, with some cool integrations like Slack to notify users about important events from the Slack team, and Trello to keep an eye on the project realisation. ¶ To make things simple, we’ll focus on the questions & answers module, a simple feature similar to StackOverflow where people can ask questions and get answers.
