Known in development circles as "the Code Whisperer," Daniel Stern has been believed to possess a supernatural connection to computers ever since he talked the supercomputer Deep Blue off the roof of a twelve-story St. Petersburg apartment building, following its shameful loss to Gary Kasparov.
He can often be found singing softly to his tablet, or gently caressing his aluminum keyboard in his arms.
Daniel has been working as a front end and full stack developer in the tech industry since 2011. He's developed single-page applications for banks like CIBC, charities like the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research, and at ad agencies like McLaren McCann, TraffikGroup and Olson. Throughout his labors, he's worked on computer programming in his spare time because, well, he's obsessed with it.
In addition to being featured in both CSS Weekly and JavaScript weekly, Daniel is well-known throughout the open-source community for maintaining several open-source tools, most notably the Angular.js and LESS-based tool, Range .css and the Angular .js audio tool, ngAudio.
In addition to being trusted by the open source community to develop top-quality, functional code, Daniel has also been invited to speak at numerous conferences including Full Stack Conference 2014 in London, England.
Daniel is an active learner and very passionate about the following technologies,
- Node.js
- Angular.js
- TypeScript
- MongoDB
- LESS
- Grunt
- Yeoman
- Many, many, many

The authors has done great job with this course very recommanded

By Patrick Jamieson

Course was good to a point, but depth was very superficial.

By Travis Jeppson

the instructor appears to be fresh in his career, he has made some obvious mistakes with information provided to the student. Also with this course being about express and not node, i would have preferred to jump right in and now hear about the “internet” which was laden with incorrect information

By Xi Guo

Practice class not much in details.

By Ma Yue
