020 - Too Early Intro to Node.js

When learning to code, it’s important to jump into the deep end every now and then to keep leveling up. Unfortunately it didn’t work out in my favor when I gave a go to Node.js!

The workshop I attended was a purposeful break from my learning plan.

I’d love to include a clear & concise definition of Node.js here (intended for total newbies), but I still haven’t found one! If you know of a good one please leave a comment below. Otherwise, here are some of the resources I found which provide a bit of context:

• Max Ogden’s Understanding Node
• The Coding Train’s What Is Node.js? (YouTube)

If you want to give Node.js a try here are some links:

• Install Node.js
• Nodeschool tutorial “workshoppers”

If you’ve had a rough start trying something new, or have some good Node.js resources to share, leave a comment below or tweet me @startovercoder.
