Built a Botnet Using Node JavaScript

Hacker News

Hello HN. So about half a year ago, I started taking programming more seriously, and I've decided to learn Node JS and work on some projects to sharpen my skills. I found such a topic (Botnets and C&C) very interesting, and I decided to make my own one. It is nothing that impressive; it currently cannot perform any kind of DDOS attack, which is kind of the main reason Botnets exist, but regardless, I am fairly happy with it. The reason I am posting about it here is that I have been finding it very hard to find somebody to criticize it or to give me some feedback, as I am concerned about the quality of the code and if I am even doing things correctly here. So, let me know what you guys think.
