Write front-end AND back-end code in a unified language, for staggeringly fast and scalable projects
Forget tired, academic references, and avoid getting bogged down in the detail. With Jump Start Node.js, you’ll pick up the basics of Node.js, and learn to put it to work right away. Node.js is different because it allows you to write front- and back-end code: that means, all your thinking can be in a single language, with shared code and templates. Not just easy-to-use, it’s also lightning quick and super efficient. Node.js allows you to use your finely-tuned front-end skills on fast, scalable web applications.
In just one weekend, learn how to:
Develop a dynamic working Node.js application from start to finish,
Deply your new application to a production server,
Scale your projects quickly and cheaply.

Meet Don Nguyen Don began programming with strongly typed, object-oriented languages such as Java and C++. He used his engineering training to build real-time trading systems designed to be scalable and fault tolerant.
Don has programmed in a variety of web environments including ASP, PHP, and Python, but feels that Node.js is foremost at handling the modern demands of the real-time web.
