ExpressJS ProTips: Lessons From The Trenches
NodeJS was supposed to bring in this new era of web development – productivity, scalability, easy to write code and more! But now, suddenly, you find yourself looking at a tangled, nested callback mess. What happened? How did this brave new world suddenly turn in to the nightmarish depths of Java and C#?
Node and Express are a powerful combination for serving web sites, but they aren’t fool-proof. They allow you to write bad code in an unorganized and deeply nested manner if you want to. The trick, then, is to keep your code as clean as possible – and I’ll show you how with the ExpressJS ProTips email course!
What Is An Email Course?
The idea behind an email course is to take a subject that needs a lot of explanation, a lengthy period of time to understand or digest, and break it up in to smaller, more manageable parts. Imagine a multi-part blog post series, for example. Each part adds to the knowledge and understand, but having it split up allows you to digest each one before the next is read.
With an email course, the content is split apart in this manner and delivered to your inbox on a regular basis. You’ll have time to read, think and act on the information from each email, before the next one arrives. The result is a better pace for learning and a more intuitive understanding of the subject matter.
