About This Course

Become a Professional Node.js Developer

This course is designed for developers that are inspired to become profession node.js developers. Either working on projects with their employer, client, or for a personal project, this course will help to get up and running as quickly as possible.

Setting up a development environment is a very basic need in order to do any professional development, so we have spent a lot of time and effort to ensure that the playground for development is supportive and enables rock-solid coding.

This course is for all levels of developers that want to learn node.js outside of simple tutorials that do not teach how to run projects in the real world. They just want to just dive in and build something that is production grade. All the materials are easy-to-follow videos and will take no longer than three hours to get up and running.

Good content but outdated.
Instrutor uses Docker Toolbox (which is deprecated) and the repository in the github has no update in 5 years.
Nonetheless, the ideas presented in the course are pretty good.

It is quite nice and easy to understand. Especially the Docker Container setup and MySql, etc. It would be nice if there were lesson on troubleshooting different issues that we learnt in the lecture.

Very valuable information, presented in an engaging way. The result is a docker-ized node development environment in a github repo. Here are some things to note:
1. The course uses docker containers. While detailed info on containers is beyond the scope of the course, it would have helped to give an block diagram of what's being built (including the virtualbox). It also would be nice to include a bit more instruction on how to diagnose the environment (e.g., using command-line mysql client).
2. There were a couple places where an instruction was missing from the video (although not missing from the repo), leading to the student needing to diagnose the problem. That's fine, if the teacher uses it as an opportunity for a teachable moment. Examples:
:: apt-get update && apt-get install pkg1 pkg2
:: apt-get install mysql
All-in-all, I recommend it to all node developers.

This is by far the most hands on exact fit course I have encountered.

Moving from .Net world to MEAN stack has its own 'pedagogical' challenges, this course is what the doctor ordered for anyone wishing to enter professional nodejs development.

Absolutely delighted with the no-nonsense approach, consise and engaging.

Thank you for such an excellent introduction to professional nodejs development.
