Hi,
What is appropriate to Show EJS?
I'm guessing libraries and frameworks are fine, but what about  applications?
Obviously, Im asking because just finished an application that relies heavily on angular + nvd3, and I would like to know if it's okay to post it.
Thanks

The about page has the rules for EchoJS. About what is acceptable content here, there are only 2 rules:

* JavaScript related content only
* English content only

So, I dare to say if your app is JavaScript related (and its language is english) is okay.

A JavaScript related app would be like a jslint-clone or something like that.

Since I guess you mean more like "I want you guys to try my app, that is NOT about JavaScript, but was coded on JavaScript".

So I *guess* the answer is that is NOT okay, unless you are going to post the REPO url where you have the (JavaScript based) source code of your app and what you want us to check is it's code. In that case, I think is ok.

I'm not sure, however. But posting the url of mediacenterjs seems to be okay.

That app is about playing media, not about JavaScript. But, its open source and we can check the code.

Then again, I'm not sure. Just keep in mind this is echojs.com, not freecode.com

I agree that just spamming/advertising your own app/service is not appropriate, unless the app/service in question has implemented something very significant in JavaScript, but even then the focus should be about that JavaScript feature, not the app/service itself.

I really hate it when I see people posting links like "Look at this awesome one-liner JavaScript I wrote that I'm using here on my app that has nothing to do with JavaScript, when I could have just created a Gist or a Github repo showcasing it."

I'll admit to be a bit of hypocrite when it comes to that ("Look at this awesome one-liner JavaScript...."). If I DO like the app, then it's all good. 
If DON'T like the app then I get all offend.
So that's why I asked first...
Thanks for your input

Yeah I am the same way. The problem is that we all have different opinions about what is a nice/cool/useful/amazeballs app, so it's better for everyone to follow simple guidelines rather than risk annoying people. :)

Sometimes I see people linking to their own blog about some REALLY old and trivial beginner JavaScript stuff, just to get visitors. I bet you can already find like a billion links on this site alone about JavaScript scopes or IIF's and whatnot. 

I'm not saying that people shouldn't write about those. Usually the case is that it's some new developer who has just learned that thing, and wants to share it with others. I just don't think they should be top page news.

That's fair. 
Thanks for your answer (can't believe I missed the about page)
