🚀 Master Node.js 10: Effortless Server-Side Web Development Guide

Used Like New ✨

Create real-time applications using Node.js 10 🚀, Docker 🐳, MySQL 🗄️, MongoDB 📊, and Socket.IO 💬 with this practical guide! Go beyond the developer's laptop to cover live deployment, including HTTPS 🔒 and hardened security 🛡️.

Key Features:

• Learn server-side JavaScript coding through the most up-to-date book on Node.js 📘
• Explore the latest JavaScript features and EcmaScript modules ⚡
• Walk through different stages of developing robust applications using Node.js 10 🛠️

Book Description:

Node.js is a server-side JavaScript platform using an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model allowing users to build fast and scalable data-intensive applications running in real time ⏱️.

This book gives you an excellent starting point, bringing you straight to the heart of developing web applications with Node.js. You will progress from a rudimentary knowledge of JavaScript and server-side development to being able to create, maintain, deploy, and test your own Node.js application 🎯. You will understand the importance of transitioning to functions that return Promise objects, and the difference between fs, fs/promises, and fs-extra. With this book, you'll learn how to use the HTTP Server and Client objects, data storage with both SQL and MongoDB databases, real-time applications with Socket.IO, mobile-first theming with Bootstrap, microservice deployment with Docker, authenticating against third-party services using OAuth, and use some well-known tools to beef up security of Express 4.16 applications 🔐.

What You Will Learn:

• Install and use Node.js 10 for both development and deployment 🖥️
• Use the Express 4.16 application framework 🏗️
• Work with REST service development using the Restify framework 🔄
• Use data storage engines such as MySQL, SQLITE3, and MongoDB 💾
• Use user authentication methods with OAuth2 🔑
• Perform real-time communication with the front-end using Socket.IO 💬
• Implement Docker microservices in development, testing, and deployment 🐳
• Perform unit testing with Mocha 5.x and functional testing with Puppeteer 1.1.x ✅
• Work with HTTPS using Let's Encrypt and application security with Helmet 🛡️

Who this book is for:

This book is for anybody looking for an alternative to the "P" languages (Perl, PHP, and Python) or anyone looking for a new paradigm of server-side application development 💡. You should have at least a rudimentary understanding of JavaScript and web application development.
