I have been writing Node.js applications for many years, but after completing this course I have learned a lot of new things that I didn't know before. The course content is comprehensive and well-structured, providing valuable insights and practical knowledge. I appreciate the effort put into creating this course, and highly recommend it to both beginners and experienced developers.

I liked the pace of the course, and the progression of the examples. It gives a good overview of the module and functionalities of Node.

I am c++ engineer who works on Node.js; I like the key javascript concepts/asynchronous control flow/ creating child processes section a lot. This helps me to understand the most important node feature SE that I need to focus on.

It was simple, and doing the labs was an honor system, so it didn't require any sort of messy auto-grader on the website. They were just hard enough for me to work, but not too hard that I stressed about them.

The simplicity and directness of the basic and fundamental points in JS and Node. It is a good introduction to the Node, NPM and other related stuff for developers from other fields.

I used this course to learn Javascript from scratch. While it is highly recommended to have some programming/scripting experience, I found this course pretty accurate on the core concerns of the language. I definitely recommend this course to people who like getting a deep understanding of what Javascript can do.

The course material is subject-oriented, and carefully selected to give maximum knowledge in a short period of time. In addition, it contains a lot of relevant links to material for further development.

I liked the cumulative learning aspect, and that I got out of it what I put into it. Really loved coding in general, and especially Node, so it was nice to feel like I was learning of my own volition. Came into this course with a 50% comfort level on 50% of the material, and left with something like 95% ~ 100%.

The exercises were very helpful in recapping the material learnt.

I started out quite puzzled about NodeJs, but as soon as I ran over the first chapters, I felt like I was discovering a new world.
