Do you want to code for the web? In this course: get a fundamental introduction to a fast growing JavaScript environment.
What is Node.js?
Node.js is a runtime environment that allows you to use JavaScript outside of a browser context. For instance, you can use it directly on a computer or server OS. It has support for HTTP and reading from/writing to files. Node.js is lightweight and efficient.
"Short code snippet course only. No real application created. Good for learning some basics and reading and writing files. I'll be using it as a reference. Instructor helps to explain the cumbersome node.js documentation."
What are the benefits of Node.js?
Node is fast. Its code is written in plain JavaScript that is easy to understand. The Node Package Manager (NPM) is helpful. It is well-supported, popular, and has an active community of developers.
Node.js is free to install. We use v6.11.2 LTS in this course.
Source code is included. Enroll today to join the Mammoth community.
Who this course is for:
  • People with basic coding skills who want to learn NodeJS

By Tyler Christensen

A 20-minute video is a little ridiculous. It really could have been split into 3 or 4 since it has 3 or 4 well-defined sections. There are a lot of videos like that.

By SnehalK

The course was too good and to the point. Everything was explained with examples. It would be great if there are small assignments in between so we can test how much we learned.

By Jackie Wilson

I am new to Node and want purely an introductory course. This course offered that. It was easy to follow along and I appreciate how the instructor explain why certain concepts are used.
