eBook Description:
Pro Node.js for Developers
Pro Node.js for Developers provides readers already familiar with JavaScript with a stand-alone reference to Node.js. Across five carefully sequenced sections, and seventeen individual chapters, you will be taught about Node.js in detail. All the key concepts are presented and supported by working code samples that show the techniques in use. Since it’s creation in 2009, Node.js has grown into a powerful and increasingly popular asynchronous-development framework for creating highly-scalable network applications using JavaScript. Respected companies such as Dow Jones and LinkedIn are among the many organizations to have seen Node’s potential and adopted it into their businesses.
