I'm Mike McNeil and I code and make business and stuff.
My first startup was in social television, where I saw the need for more efficient, easy-to-use solutions for realtime social features. Because of that, I got involved in Node.js early on, and after building a few early apps, recognized the need for an MVC solution to normalize patterns.
I lead a team of very talented individuals at Sails Co, a UX-focused web and mobile studio in Austin, TX. This has funded the ongoing development of the framework, but also provided plenty of excellent opportunities to build out and utilize Sails.js in production, based on real-world use cases.
