Description

Almost a decade after the release of Node.js, the tooling used by frontend developers is fully embracing this cross-platform JavaScript runtime, which is sadly often limited to server-side web development. This is where this Node.js book comes in, showing you what this popular runtime has to offer and how you can unlock its full potential to create frontend-focused web apps. You’ll begin by learning the basics and internals of Node.js, before discovering how to divide your code into modules and packages. Next, you’ll get to grips with the most popular package managers and their uses and find out how to use TypeScript and other JavaScript variants with Node.js. Knowing which tool to use when is crucial, so this book helps you understand all the available state-of-the-art tools in Node.js. You’ll interact with linters such as ESLint and formatters such as Prettier. As you advance, you’ll become well-versed with the Swiss Army Knife for frontend developers – the bundler. You’ll also explore various testing utilities, such as Jest, for code quality verification. Finally, you’ll be able to publish your code in reusable packages with ease. By the end of this web development book, you’ll have gained the knowledge to confidently choose the right code structure for your repositories with all that you’ve learned about monorepos.

What you will learn

Develop a frontend application with Node.js-based tools and libraries

Use bundlers such as webpack or Vite to create efficient web applications

Leverage test runners such as Jest to ship reliable software

Organize code repositories to work in close collaboration with other developers and teams

Find out how to publish npm packages to simplify code reuse

Improve code quality by enabling consistent formatting using Prettier

This book is great for developers who want to learn full-stack, it covers all the building foundations of working with Node.js with API, to the front end. Contents are limited but you will get an overview and understanding of the topics covered in the book. I recommend this to those who are just getting started with MERN, and MEVN stacks, or those who work on the front-end but want to explore more on the backend.

Great book for a more complete understanding of Node.js for the frontend development. As a WordPress theme developer, I have been using many npm packages for asset bundling and building automated workflow. After reading this book, I gained a much better understanding of why and how the tools work behind the sences.Unlike some tutorials that only tells you the steps of setting up things, this book explains the reason lying behind the scenes, with nice, neat and clear explanation. I appriciate that every chapter provides a github source and youtube code-in-action to demonstrate the details, the code-in-action especially. Sometimes I like to type in everything and see how the code runs in the vscode. To have code-in-action pre-recorded the process is very helpful, it is time saving and straight forward. And the example codes in the book are perfect for understanding the concepts from a practical way.It is also a good book just for getting in depth knowledge about node.js, for example it explains the differences of yarn, npm and other package managers, and the reasons why alternatives of npm got created. I think it is a great book even for experienced frontend developers to read, just to patch up understandings or to get a more complete picture of the good tools we are using.

I bought the book to finally get ahead in the frontend jungle. Until now, it wasn't entirely clear to me why I should use Node.js to build a simple static website or why scripts are always imported and exported. This book has helped me fill that gap.In addition to practical tips for building larger front-end applications, the book provides a great overview of all the latest tools. In particular, I found the chapter on bundlers very appealing. So far, I had only heard of webpack - with the knowledge I gained, I can now also use alternatives such as esbuild parcel or vite.I wish I would have had this book sooner!

Habe mir das Buch zugelegt um endlich im Frontend Dschungel weiter zu kommen. Bis jetzt war mir nicht ganz klar wieso ich für eine einfache statische Website Node.js benutzen sollte oder warum Skripte immer importiert und exportiert werden. Dieses Buch hat mir geholfen diese Lücke zu füllen.Neben praktischen Tipps zum Aufbau größerer Frontend Applikationen bietet das Buch einen super Überblick über alle aktuellen Tools. Vor allem das Kapitel über bundler fand ich sehr ansprechend. Bis jetzt hatte ich nur von webpack gehört - mit dem vermittelten Wissen kann ich jetzt auch Alternativen wie esbuild parcel oder vite einsetzen.Volle Kaufempfehlung!
