[kwlug-disc] Which JavaScript should I learn?

[Raymond Chen]

So the question is whether we need a web server inside the embedded Linux
board, which comes with maintenance work. That depends on what the device
is. For those Wi-Fi routers they have been doing this for a long time. My
D-Link router never published any update since I bought it 4 years ago. I
doubt the web server is that good...
