This is a great book, for somebody who is starting his first application in Node.JS. it explains in detail how to start your own application, how Node.JS works and simple brings you into the world of Node.JS which is diferent from a standart request/thread application we where used to produce in PHP or ASP.

The fundamental difference between node and all other popular web languages is the asynchronous approach. This book merely acknowledges this concept and doesn't spend any time explaining the event loop, call stack, or key differences for people who are already well versed in other languages. There is no discussion of promises on the server side and no mention of design patterns specific to the callback-happy world of node.Further, this book spends a lot of time explaining how to do things the hard way. It demonstrates terribly messy page controllers and routers that will quickly grow to unsustainable size without once mentioning industry standard tools such as Express that are meant to avoid these problems. If you follow this book's example, you'll end up with a bloated but well archtected app that wastes lots of code space and is a nightmare to maintain.Finally, the book suffers several small grammatical errors. Normally, I wouldn't note this, but in a technical manual non-parsing sentences can lead to misinterpretation.It is also worth noting that this book does not once mention ES6 or any of the major changes that are now supported.I recommend this book only to people who already understand node well but want a guided approach to solving some core concepts they may have missed such as TDD, restful design, or real-time chat.
