Description
Hello, and welcome to Advanced Node.js, part of the Node.js Learning Path here at Pluralsight. My name is Samer Buna, and I’m looking forward to helping you understand how the Node runtime work and learn about all the powerful built-in features that you can use in every Node process.
Along the way, you’re going to be learning about things like modules management, V8, concurrency and event loop, streams, child processes, and clusters. You’ll also be using npm and Node's event-driven modules for networking and HTTP web servers. You’ll want to make sure you’re already up to speed on modern JavaScript and the basics of Node.js.
So if you’re ready to get started, Advanced Node.js is waiting for you. Thanks again for visiting me here at Pluralsight!
Course FAQ
Node.js is a non-blocking, event-driven JavaScript platform for building scalable network apps.
This course is for you if you are comfortable with JavaScript and you know the basics of Node, like how to create a simple web server, require modules, use callbacks and events.
This course will NOT teach you JavaScript. This course is completely about the Node.js runtime itself and absolutely not about the popular NPM packages that are usually presented. You will learn the core Node.js concepts and API modules from simple utility modules all the way to streams and clusters.
This course is definitely not for the beginner, but don't be intimidated by the Advanced label either. If you know the basics of Node, you can survive this course.
