  1. Hi! A very usefuk tutorial. It has helped me to definetively understand the MVC architecture. Thanks a lot.

    I have only one doubt: which is the right way to inform the user that are, for example, empty fields? The code line “console.log(“Fill empty fields”);” I think that is not visible for the user. That is, which is the right way to show input errors (duplicate name, not match password, …) on the ‘view’ from the ‘controller’?

    Thanks.

  2. It’s an awful example of MVC. Controllers should have no business logic inside of them! The Model in MVC is not just a Mongo model but the whole business logic with managers, services, db models, etc.
