review 1: This book provides a very basic introduction to build a web app with Node.js. As the author admits at the start of the book it's a brief introduction.For me personally, this book didn't tell me anything that I didn't know about Node.js. Except that I can now advice this book to other people who hardly know anything about Node.js.So, if you barely know (or maybe not even) what Node.js is and want to learn the basics, this book is for you. It covers the most important concepts as Node's event architecture, explains a bit about first-class functions, and guides you very gentile to build a simple web application.The style of writing is pretty nice. I read it cover to cover in about an hour.
review 2: A very good meant for beginners. You end up developing a simple P... moreNG file uploader. A very basic application, but in the process I learn about writing the webserver, node modules and some basic technologies. If you know programming in language and understand basics of HTTP communication, you are good to go with this book to start with and then delve deeper using other books and / or online documents and community. less
