Node.js in Action, 2nd Edition (Paperback)

The first edition of Node.js in Action was about web development with a particular focus on the Connect and Express web frameworks. Node.js in Action, Second Edition has been updated to suit the changing requirements of Node development. You’ll learn about front-end build systems, popular Node web frameworks and how to build a web application with Express from scratch. You’ll also learn how to create automated tests and deploy Node web applications. Node is being increasingly used for command-line developer tools and desktop applications with Electron, so you’ll find chapters dedicated to both of these areas.
