A question for Node.js

Hi,

Just wondering if the scenario of requesting using Node.js will always the same with other? Like when Chalker needed to convert the data (buffer) to string and the string to JSON do we always need to do this?

Thanks!

There are other ways to transmit data.

But JSON is convenient and extremely popular. I'd suggest sticking with it until you have a clear need to use a different format.
