Description

NodeJs is a powerful JavaScript engine that can be used for a variety of tasks. In this course, we’ll learn the basics of working with NodeJS. We’ll work with the core libraries, but also learn about using npm: the Node Package Manager to load and work with any third party package that has been developed for NodeJS. We’ll also look at three ways to write and run a simple web server using node. 

The course is an hour long, and consists of two units. Topics include: 

- installation
- testing and verifying the installation
- introduction to the npm
- using the REPL utility
- file input and output

The course assumes that you are comfortable writing and understanding object oriented JavaScript. 

I hope you’ll join us for this exciting introduction to NodeJS.

Instructor speech was perfect, resources as well, perhaps because the browser I'm using, videos are pretty bad when I paused to make my notes, a popup message appear prompt to download, and the video re-starts from the beginning. Other than tah, the speech speed was great and topics what I expected.

I enjoy it because I was able to achieve communication through port8080 which I have been trying to achieve with other tutorials but I never understood them well

I've gone through a couple of lectures from the beginning of the course. The teaching is clear and concise with a right pace. The lecturer seems to be knowledgeable on the subject.

This is a very simple tutorial, intended for complete beginners. However, I am a complete beginner and I learned a lot about the basics. Very good course if you don't have previous knowledge about NodeJS and want to start. Thank you

It delivers exactly what it promises, a course for beginners. The content however is limited ans touches only the the very basic. Not marking it great, because I expected to go deeper. Nevertheless, excellent narration
