Learning Objectives

Since its introduction in 2009, Node.js has become one of the go-to platforms from developing everything for massively scaleable real-time enterprise web applications to automating Internet of Things embedded devices. Because it is written in JavaScript, the most popular and widely used programming language in the world, and has more than 200,000 publicly available opensource packages in its module ecosystem, developing Node.js applications increases developer productivity and reduces infrastructure costs.

The fundamentals of asynchronous server-side JavaScript
Node.js standard library including Streams, Buffers and HTTP servers
How to create, deploy and distribute Node.js applications
Workflow automation with Gulp and Grunt task runners
