ABOUT THIS COURSE
Node.js is considered a game changer in web development. Written in JavaScript, it’s the most adopted language, and the only programming language supported natively by every web browser. Once acquainted with Node.js and JavaScript, you can comfortably develop software for a wide variety of platforms.
The course starts by explaining the Node.js platform and introduces its ecosystem and philosophy. Next, it introduces the modules system, callbacks and events that help in developing asynchronous applications. The patterns and techniques used for asynchronous control flow equip you to adopt best practices in Node.js. Advanced recipes are also provided that take a problem-solution approach to show how some coding and design intricacies can be approached with ready-to-use solutions.
After completing the course, you’ll have a better understanding of the Node.js ecosystem and some of its design patterns. This will pave your path to developing interactive and efficient web applications.
