Great book, NodeJS is a very powerful platform built on Chrome’s JavaScript. It is an open-source and supports the different platforms. It helps in developing Web Server Application. Thank you so much for these insights and information
Great book, I suggest everyone buy it, I just did myself. I am not a complete beginner but it helped me to get some concepts more deeply "engrained" and put things into perspective.
Amazing book, thank you!
I like the book but have one issue ... when you get into the blocking examples you use the exec shell command. This is fine if you are learning on a Linux machine but there is no such command on a windows machine ... workaround?
you can use GIT bash for window.
Best ever for node.js book, thanks
I've been a developer for over 20 years, but my first, recent encounter with node's execution model baffled me. This book was a great help.
Manuel, but 8888 port is not working. Just fed up of finding this solution. Any help?
intenta con 8080
At the end of the book, I got it this error: "Cannot find module 'formidable'". Not sure why, since it appears to be installed globally.
I managed to get it working by installing formidable this way: "npm i -S formidable"
this happened with me with another package. I simply updated npm to the latest version and it worked, try this solution
Seems like Node.js is all about functional programming. #JavaScript
it's very important documents : thanks
Great tutorial. I bought the bundle. One annoyance is that in the PDF the code samples have line numbers, which interferes with cutting and pasting the code. Anyone have a trick to get around this?

Check this out!
helloworld.js failed immediately with
syntax error Unexpected identifier at object.exports.cretescript at (vm.js:24:10)
and then more lines of errors. Any ideas? I verified the path, restarted the computer.
On your command line, navigate to the path and type "node helloworld.js". It wont work on the node terminal this way.Just your command line
You had me at the introduction... you described me perfectly!
Read the rest of the tutorial and it seems to be written in exactly the way that I would find most easy to understand. Buying now, and looking forward to creating some nodejs awesomeness.
Very nicely explained.
Your explanation is really a great help for the Node.js beginners.
Thank you so much for this... I dont normally comment for any article i read but i am just commenting while I not even finish reading... this is exactly wht I needed.
please, hi someone tell me , is recommendable learn node.js if just I know html level midium.???
I would say no.
Start off by learning html,css and javascript and then you can go further.
Wonderfully described. Would you like to share your knowledge on my blog?
Good tutorial. I like to use Express framework :)
hi sir ,

What has that have to do with node?
hi sir

Thanks sir
Quote from the book "There may be more elegant solutions, but this approach should do the job for now". Which solution are those?
Thanks for this tutorial.
Bought the books.
Looking forward to learning many new things.
Very nice tutorial. It's worth every cent!
And also his second book nodecraftsman is very nice!
I can really recommend those books!
Ok, I'll bite. I'm still getting confused by the anonymous function calling, nested within a separate function call, but I like the way you break this stuff down.
sound good
goood
Would u rather finish this bible with MongoDB, please?
Thanks!!!
Excellent tutorial!
It's tough out here in the jungle, hunting for guidance, trying to evaluate the quality of the information we find, and hacking along inch by inch. Every so often we find a nice golden nugget, and this tutorial is on of those rare finds.
Thanks!
Just bought the books bundle, nice job! :)
Hi i have working for node js application i can able to access the http domain but i got open ssl error while accessing the https domain.Any idea for this?
Why am I getting the error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'path' of undefined, from the final code in the upload function? Where is 'path' defined? The image uploads and displays but if I refresh the page the server is down.
you lost me at: write hello world to STDOUT. will look for another true beginner guide.
Hi Joe,
this is a guide for Node.js beginners, not for beginners with computing and programming in general.
If right now you don't know what STDOUT means, I suggest reading up on fundamentals of Unix/Linux systems, and check back later.
Good tutorial, and nice pace / style. However there's an issue with the final exercise to upload an image. The fs module parses, but then complains of a missing Callback, and so the image doesn't get moved to the correct folder and doesn't display either. A tad frustrating as its on the very last page of the tutorial!
I see others have had issues as well, and I have renamed the path to using ./tmp/test.png, and also created a tmp folder, but is still complaining of the callback.
** The issue was because the file was being uploaded to my C: drive and the project was on my D: drive. I hardwired the destination to be on C: and it worked straight away.
My goodness...thank you so much. This tutorial has allowed me to finally break the spell of confusion with learning NodeJS. Very clear and understandable...so many palm to the head moments!!!
