Show HN: Frodo – Rails like app generator for Node.js/Express (opens in new tab)

Looking at the last example, how does it know that `name` is of type String and `age` is of type Number? Should it not be

  $ frodo generate model user name:string age:number

or something?

Why does it have an IFFE on the controllers? This isn't a browser environment where we have to worry about files cluttering a global namespace. Each file is its own module where it has its own namespace. (Also this isn't needed for client-side development anymore unless you aren't using a build tool.)

why not use yeoman?
