Express: res.send() vs res.json() vs res.end()

Materials

• Article res.json() vs res.send() vs res.end() in Express
• MDN: Common MIME types

Key Takeaways

• When in doubt, use .send(). It dynamically sets Content-Type headers to match the data it sends.
• When sending JSON, you can either use .json() uses .send().
  • .json() is arguably less confusing
• .json() uses .send() under the hood so the resulting HTTP headers are the same.

Delete all characters left of the cursor

⌘+←Delete Send Hex Codes:

• 0x18 0x7f – Less compatible, doesn't work in node and won't work in zsh by default, see below to fix zsh (bash/irb/pry should be fine), performs desired functionality when it does work.
• 0x15 – More compatible, but typical functionality is to delete the entire line rather than just the characters to the left of the cursor.

Delete all characters right of the cursor

⌘+fn+←Delete or ⌘+Delete→ Send Hex Codes:

• 0x0b

Cryptographic Best Practices

Putting cryptographic primitives together is a lot like putting a jigsaw puzzle together, where all the pieces are cut exactly the same way, but there is only one correct solution. Thankfully, there are some projects out there that are working hard to make sure developers are getting it right.

The following advice comes from years of research from leading security researchers, developers, and cryptographers. This Gist was [forked from Thomas Ptacek's Gist][1] to be more readable. Additions have been added from
