To get the most out of this book
All the examples in the book have been created with simplicity in mind. They all work similarly and only require knowledge in core frontend technologies such as JavaScript with HTML and CSS. Additionally, some basic knowledge in using a terminal is necessary in order to follow all examples. The tooling to make the code run is discussed throughout the book. As such, if you know how to work with JavaScript, and follow the book explaining how to use Node.js with npm, you’ll have no problems running the examples presented in the book.
In Chapter 11, you’ll also run Deno and Bun. The chapter itself contains installation instructions.
If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code from the book’s GitHub repository (a link is available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.
