Asynchronous event-driven programming is ideal for this, and this is where Node.js comes in. Server-side JavaScript has been here since the 90s, but Node got it right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Node for tooling and server-side logic, and a browser-based client-side UI, everything is JavaScript. This leads to rapid, fluid development cycles. The full-stack, single language experience means less context-switching between languages for developers, architects and whole teams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book shows you how to build fast, efficient, and scalable client-server solutions using the latest versions of Node.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book begins with debugging tips and tricks of the trade, and how to write your own modules. Then you'll learn the fundamentals of streams in Node.js, discover I\/O control, and how to implement the different web protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou'll find recipes for integrating databases such as MongoDB, MySQL\/MariaDB, Postgres, Redis, and LevelDB. We also cover the options for building web application with Express, Hapi and Koa.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou will then learn about security essentials in Node.js and advanced optimization tools and techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the end of the book you will have acquired the level of expertise to build production-ready and scalable Node.js systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe techniques and skills you will learn in this book are based on the best practices developed by nearForm, one of the leaders in Node implementations, who supported the work of the authors on this book.\u003c\/p\u003eStyle and approach\u003cp\u003eThis recipe-based practical guide presents each topic with step-by-step instructions on how you can create fast and efficient server side applications using the latest features and capabilities in Node 8 whilst also supporting usage with Node 4 and 6.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47140284530928,"sku":"9781785881244","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781785881244_p0.jpg?v=1763728986","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781785881244","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
