Description

Dive into the world of Node.js with this comprehensive guide, taking you from foundational concepts to practical web development mastery. Written by an industry veteran with over 50 programming books under his belt, this book will help both beginners and seasoned developers. Gain a deep understanding of the most important server-side features in web development with Node.js. The first part of the book will get you up to speed with basic features of Node.js and TypeScript. In the second part, you’ll elevate your skills by creating simplified implementations of key server-side features to understand how they work and how they are presented to clients. Armed with the understanding gained from implementing each feature, you will be able to replace custom code with production-ready open-source packages. The third part will help you understand how server-side features are combined for practical web development. Using Adam Freeman’s signature SportsStore application, you will learn how to develop client and server-side components, culminating in a thorough application deployment preparation. By the end of this Node.js book, you will be able to build and deploy server applications to support HTTP clients, including JavaScript applications created with frameworks such as Angular and React.

Who is this book for?

This book is for programmers with a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS who are transitioning into JavaScript development and are looking to master the implementation of server-side applications.

What you will learn

  • Process HTTP requests and perform file operations
  • Create RESTful web services that can be consumed by client-side apps
  • Work with server apps serving JavaScript clients, such as React and Angular

I am still digesting this book (at about half of through), but it answered my relatively newbie questions already and I found the most difficult (for me it was the Node's code execution, concurrency model) topics explained so well I am not worried I can embrace the modern NodeJS - based Web development.I found the most precious the topics on data models, debugging and RESTFULL services ( I am on a data wrangling spree ). The real application example is a real gem - allows to solidify and repeat learn the material.The harder parts I wish could be easier are the ones on security, Docker and deployment in general.My advice for a book reader - learn the NPM commands and make helper scripts.

I am a C# developer and have touched on JS and TS when creating web applications, so I already have a basic understanding of them. However, this book would be great for someone with absolutely no experience with either as it takes you through all aspects required to progress through the books chapters culminating in the creation of a store with database support and full data validation. It even covers creating a docker image from the finished project.Overall a great read for beginners, I would highly recommend.

This book does an excellent job of covering development with Node.js and the surrounding web ecosystem. It starts from the ground up by introducing the required tooling and providing an overview of JavaScript and TypeScript. It runs the gamut on what you would normally be expected to know when building a Node.js app: HTTP, streams, HTML templates, databases, authentication, etc.For folks new to Node.js, this book will help get you up and running with a production grade app. For seasoned Node.js developers, it provides a good reference for filling in the blanks in your knowledge (or at least blowing the dust off the knowledge you already have).The book also covers some niche stuff like worker threads, which is nice if you don’t feel like scouring the web to figure out how to use them. I like how the author walks you through building an entire app in the last few chapters. Overall, I’d say it’s definitely worth a read!
