Learn Node.js - Full Tutorial for Beginners

A quick well structured walk through if you are new to node.js

This is not for beginners... the amount of pre-knowledge is immense. Beginners would assume you would describe, explain and give context to each function, and module you are using and what it does. No where do you even start to explain what events are, eventemitter, what a constructor is, what is a constant... this is not for beginners. im alwasy getting click baited into these so called beginner tutorials that are just lame excuses for freecodecamp to get clout.

I would argue these are not courses, and are rather copy and paste tutorials. No explanation of what each function, inputed word such as "constructor", "super", etc are explained. I would not risk calling these courses, just to gain viewers and followers. As much as I like freecodecamp, their "courses" are a play on words, are tutorials, which are not courses. They are not synonomous. Some things are missing, and some steps tend to get skipped. Simply writing what you are writing, regurgitating what you are writing, is not teaching anything. This three hour course could have been an hour and a half, with the extra 1.5 hours invested in teaching us what you are actually doing. This is not just you, this is most freecodecampe courses and other tutorials people do. Tutorials are not courses. Stop with this. This is equivilent to watching a teacher tell me what their powerpoint presentation says word for word and then ask me what I learned. Seriously??

Im glad that he skips through explaining any of the complex important stuff but he spends an hour explaining braindead easy things

JOI.validate() is depricated now. If anybody gets stuck at this.

Great tutorial. Here are some updates for joi input validation. Instead of joi.validate() use this format now. here schema is the schema object formed using joi.object() in this tutorial-->
const {err} = schema.validate(req.body)
if(err){
res.send(err)
}
else{
res.send('submitted successfully')
}

Valuable

I am not sure that this is completely for beginners.

Abstractions behind the codes like `app.use('/public', express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'static', 'index.html')))` are not properly explained.

bro. Your too zoomed in. Good tutoria; :)

If the CSS file is not loading when you're sending the index file, try giving the path to CSS file as public/css/main.css because the browser looks up the static file served through the server and if the alias to static folder is not provided in the CSS href in HTML then it won't get the CSS file

Hey maybe someone can help me out, I'm a student at freeCodeCamp and I'm just now learning how to use Javascript. I downloaded node, but of course its been a few years so systems can change since then. I prefure subline text and I'm trying to figure out how I link the two together. Can someome please help me?

Bro likes his bananas

This is the one of the best begineer video

just zoomout bro, can see only 6 lines of code at most.

just want to add the joi.validate is no longer a correct a syntax, now we should use schema.validate(req.body, ()=>{}) since schema is the object you created let me know if joi.validate still functions I would like to know how and why it didn't work for me

Who here is doing the blockchain course and watching this to get caught up with how to use NodeJS lol?

Great class.
Keep up the good work.
Thank You,

2022 joi.validate not a function

superb teaching ......thank you sir

would be better if the video had better quality...

Really great job. Thank you for this.

Thank you for this wonderful course!

the part where you explain how to serve static files with express, i love this! was searching for an eternity to find someone who show me what im doing wrong. thanks.

Everything was going great untill the moment you put in Jquery without even explaining anything. should've kept code restricted to js or explain more about... I went completely blank from that point onwards... also my CSS files are being refused to get accepted by the browser as MIME type error.

Honestly been trying for days to figure out how node works and how to get it to be in a certain folder and finally got it all from just the first few minutes of this video. Thank you so much!

Hi coach, May I ask please! Doyou have a tutorial for the downloaded template project to import into visual studio? Thank you!

My ctrl+shift+p doesn't give Terminal: select default terminal option after typing default. What to do.

Very good course for people wanting to get started with node

This tutorial is the best as he has explained all the aspects of node.js in this tutorial and it is best for beginners as well as who just have started learning node.js so hats off to you my noob coder!

WISH this guy gave us more than 6 lines to work with

Hey, im a CS Student and I have an internship right now, requiring me to learn Node JS for custom plugin development. Should I take a look at your JavaScript course before starting with this course?

Requires Days n Nights of practice

I can follow your code and successfully executed the app, but I don't understand a thing, the tutorial kinda went too fast and show things that came out of no where.

thanks anyway


and anyone who got their bodyParser deprecated warning, it's because as of now Express (4.16+) has bodyParser built-in so you don't need dependency on body-parser module anymore
