Summary,Node.js in Action, is an example-driven tutorial that starts at square one and guides you through all the features, techniques, and concepts you'll need to build production-quality Node applications. You'll start by learning how to set up your Node development environment, including loading the community-created extensions. Next, you'll run several simple demonstration programs where you'll learn the basics of a few common types of Node applications. Then you'll dive into asynchronous programming, a model Node leverages to lessen application bottlenecks.,About this Book,JavaScript on the server? You bet. Node.js is a JavaScript server capable of supporting scalable, high-performance web applications. Using asynchronous I/O, the server can do more than one thing at a time, a key requirement for real-time apps like chat, games, and live statistics. And since it's JavaScript, you use the same language end to end.,Node.js in Action, shows you how to build production-quality applications. Clear introductions of key concepts and example-by-example coverage take you from setup to deployment. You'll dive into asynchronous programming, data storage, and output templating, and interact with the filesystem to create non-HTTP applications like TCP/IP servers and command-line tools. Perfect for a web developer transitioning from Rails, Django, or PHP. Requires basic knowledge of JavaScript. No prior experience with Node.js needed.,Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.,What's Inside,Set up Node and extensions Grok asynchronous programming and the event loop Examples including microblogging, IM, games, and more,About the Authors,As skilled practitioners, expert teachers and trainers, and contributors to the core framework, authors ,Mike Cantelon,, ,Marc Harter,, ,T.J.
