Understanding NPM - Node.js Package Manager (Udemy.com)

Excellent course. This is another gem from Bogdan in which he has taken pains to explains how npm works and what it is all about. This course also has exercises which I found it useful. This is the go-to course for understanding npm.

I definitely learned some things I never knew before and that's great. But if I am being 100% honest, there is a little bit of a language barrier that causes me to not fully understand the concepts. It was easier, once you provided the step by step walkthroughs. I had to go back and rewind many times and put my captions on to be able to understand things. But overall this is a solid course on understanding node packages and NPM scripts. Thank you!

I really appriciate the efforts creator has put in. Explanation is smooth but i think more examples could have been covered. Even after completing the course i'm not extremely confident to say that now i know NPM. Points: 1. Github clone and then NPM install in a different system. 2. Usecases of ~ and versions without any ^ 0r ~ 3. More examples of how an update can cause issues in bigger projects 4. I couldn't understand bin folder at all. Thanks!

I am very thankful for this course. I used to have lots of questions while using NPM and used to be intimidated by it. Not anymore, after completing this course! I feel lots of confident and can understand many things behind the scene. Yes one topic 'Webpack' which Bogdan did speak in between the section but was never addressed by him. Nevertheless it is a must course for those who wants to delve deeper into NPM .

I'm new to web development. After making simple JS/HTML/CSS web apps, I stumbled over the necessity to install JS packages with NPM. Although I know Python pretty well, NPM was unusual and confusing to me. It is where Bogdan's course helped me a lot. I should add that having little experience in web technologies, I need to find and read external materials to complement the course.

I see most of the tutorials are all about NPM commands. But I found this one very interesting as it gives internal understanding about NPM and packages and how it all work together. In this tutorial the missing parts are some NPM commands and NPM Global Packages. Otherwise this tutorial far beyond better than any others on NPM. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.

My general expectations were fullfilled, however I would have also expected a more elaborate example to explain the difference between dependencies and development dependencies. It is explained only via usage of the --production flag, and that while developing for the web, it is a non issue. This is where I would expect an example of a mentioned public package. And there was no mention of the new NPX feature neither.

I enjoyed the course which was full of new and interesting info. I just love to know about things we often us, but don't give too much attention to. Also, Bogdan is very responsive and helps out in the Q&A which is huge! Thumbs up.

I haven't seen much of this course yet. But the content is so good so far that I feel comfortable giving a high rating. The author is very thorough in explaining the details. He's answered a huge number of questions that I've had already. I'm more than happy with the course so far. UPDATE: After finishing with the course I can confirm that the instructor did a great job! I have a much better understanding of NPM having gone through the course. The topics were covered in good detail. The lectures were short and to the point and helped me to quickly grasp each concept along with practicing the ideas in such a way that made me think a bit. I'm more than happy with the time and effort I spent here. Thank you for your help Bogdan!

Great course. It cemented my prior knowledge of npm, and taught me some new things. With so many courses to choose from on Udemy, I consider this course time well spent. I will take more courses from this same instructor Bogdan Stashchuk, beginning with his JavaScript and ES6 Challenges course. I would be interested in future courses from Bogdan on Node.js APIs and internals, and Git (command line).
