Summary

In this chapter, we introduced Koa and talked about its benefits for server-side web development. We talked about what developers can build with Koa and established some of its many advantages. We were also able to talk about cases when using Koa might not be ideal.

Finally, we talked about how this book is structured and how it will help you learn and understand the Koa framework better.

The next chapter will cover getting started with Koa. In the next chapter, we will learn how to get started with server-side development with Koa. We will learn how to install Koa, create a simple server, and build the obligatory Hello World app. The chapter will introduce us to some hands-on work in Koa, and we will begin to explore why Koa is so highly recommended.
