Node.js
The Complete Guide to Build RESTful APIs (2018)
What is Node.js?
Node.js, or Node, is a runtime environment for executing JavaScript code outside of a browser. It is ideal for building highly-scalable, data-intensive backend services (APIs) that power your client’s apps (web or mobile apps).
Why learn Node?
Node is great for prototyping and agile development as well as building super fast and highly scalable apps; Companies like Uber and PayPal use Node in production to build applications because it requires fewer people and less code. Plus, Node has the largest ecosystem of open-source library, so you don’t have to build everything from scratch.

node js
This course met my expectations for learning API Development in Node js.
:) Dommage que le cours ne soit pas tout à fait à jour sinon le contenu est meilleur qu'une formation de 42h vidéo concise est précise parfois les vidéos sont floues Mosh does an incredibly good job presenting this course on Node JS.
This feels lazily done and I feel really frustrated for branching out and trying a new instructor This is the best Node JS course for me.
It's kinda story telling thing, just listen and you will be node js developer.
This is best course for node js Excellent!
this fine course showed me some important aspects of node js backend development I did not know before.
This course has really helped me as we require node js on lambda AWS development now in our organization.
Learning so much about node js.
Great course, learned a lot about Node Js, Express, Mongoose.
basic terminal commands) and advanced (for a node beginner) node things, it would be nice to have a printout of the code used in each lesson, so we would be able to check it in advance to know which lessons to quickly skip The best course for node js for a beginner level.
It was a good course to start with Node JS.
This course seems great, but it would be greater to have an actual project showing some sort of complex implementation mosh is a superb teacher,if anyone want to learn node js ,comes to mosh he will provide u all the stuff.this course is imcomparable and hope mosh comes up with other new courses OMG, I already feel I am better developer after finishing Lecture6: Asynchronous JavaScript!
However, please add advanced concepts like microservices, Docker, NGINX with node js either in this course or in a separate course.
the best node js course ever, all the concepts are completely clear as usually, you're the best Mosh, keep it up:) The course is now outdated and must be replaced with new one Video clips are awesome Yes, it's good!

real world
Would like to learn some more in-depth and advanced way of using NodeJS and mongodb in the real world.
Real world examples with various tips & tricks.
If you build the example application along side Mosh and really understand it you be well prepared for building high quality API's in the real world.
Course is comprehensive + current containing real world examples.
Can you please make an advanced course for node with a real world project thanks Good Start to the course.
This code can be used in real world apps!
Not very comprehensive course even though it's diving in depth of NodeJS but I still have not idea how to create real world application with it.
Tons of useful information/techniques to use in a real world app, which is what I was looking for in this course.
Mosh is pretty good and provides many real world examples and techniques for better code.
Examples given by the instructor are not useful in real world development situations.
- Expalanations are clear - Course is well structured - But too verbose, long and time wasting on basics for experienced developers Very good course and applicable in real world scenarios.
Comprehensive in depth course on NodeJS yes really Quite a good and thorough coverage of node Js from what is it through to usage in real world scenarios such as techniques for application structuring, authentication, database connectivity and testing (key areas required for any form of app development) I've previously seen Mosh on Youtube and he's a pleasant instructor to listen to.
But if we have more number of real world example in this module with other functions, that would be helpful.
uses a real world example to explain the process.

from scratch
I would like to see the use of passport for authentication instead of doing it from scratch.
My only gripe with the course is that Mosh does not code from left to right:) I totally loved this course, as I was a novice in node.js and wanted a course which would give me learning from scratch and that's what I got from it, this course also helps you to connect the concepts with the real-world applications which is what every developer needs.
By the end of this course, I'm going to build my own API from scratching and integrate it with a React-Native mobile application.
It's amazing course from scratch to learn Node.js.

Instead, he introduces them along with key concepts and aspects that make up Node and how those features relate and interact to implement those concepts.
The instructor explained key concepts very clearly, just in time and at the proper order as you need.
Clear explanation of key concepts with relevant examples that mortals like us can understand.
I love that he explains how things work in the background using analogies which makes it easier to understand the concepts once he dives into the technicalities Contains clear and concise explanation of key concepts with enough examples!
Beautiful and clear explanations given on all the key concepts.
