Course Description
Node.js is an amazing platform. It is the V8 JavaScript that Google Chrome uses on the front end running on a server. As a developer who loves JavaScript in the browser, I find it amazing to be able to write web servers and other programs in the very same language. As you’ll see, it’s similar to JavaScript in the browser; however, it isn’t all the same. There are many new patterns and features that we’ll cover in this course.
What You’ll Learn
- How to use Node.js to build web applications and other programs.
- The principles of Node.js, including scope, modules, and asynchronous coding.
- How to work with the Node.js API, including lessons on EventEmitter, utilities, path tools, and streams.
- Taking it further with NPM and third-party modules.
