What This Book Is Not

Before you commit to reading this book, you should know what it doesn’t cover.

At the time of this writing, npm houses more than 43,000 modules, with an average growth rate of 100-plus new modules per day.[1] Since the ecosystem and community around Node.js is growing and changing so rapidly, this book does not attempt to cover everything. Instead, this short book teaches you the essentials you need to get out there and start coding.

The book also stays close to the topic of Node.js. You’ll learn a lot about clustering Node processes and how to write scalable web services, but little about front-end concerns like HTML, CSS, and browser JavaScript.

QuotationMarkI wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

QuotationMarkI'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
