Get up to speed on server-side programming with Node.js 8, as you develop real programs that are small, fast, low-profile, and useful. Take JavaScript beyond the browser, explore dynamic language features, and embrace evented programming. This updated second edition showcases the latest ECMAScript features, current best practices, and modern development techniques.

Write asynchronous, non-blocking code using Node.js’s style and patterns. Cluster and load balance services with Node.js core features and third-party tools. Work with many protocols, create RESTful web services, TCP socket clients and servers, and more. Test your code’s functionality with Mocha, and manage its life cycle with npm. Harness the power of the event loop and non-blocking I/O to create highly parallel microservices and applications.

Join the smart and diverse community that’s rapidly advancing the state of the art in JavaScript development.

“This book leapfrogged me from being a casual Node.js developer to loving the event loop and knowing how to build effective distributed systems in Node.js.”

–Kyle Kelley, Senior Software Engineer, Netflix
