Learn how to develop web applications with the Express framework from scratch

Overview

  • Exploring all aspects of web development using the Express framework
  • Starts with the essentials
  • Expert tips and advice covering all Express topics

In Detail

Express.js is a minimal and flexible node.js web application framework, providing a robust set of features for building single and multi-page, and hybrid web applications. It provides a thin layer of features fundamental to any web application, without obscuring features that developers know and love in node.js.

Express Web Application Development is a comprehensive guide for those looking to learn how to use the Express web framework for web application development.

Starting with the initial setup of the Express.js web framework, Express Web Application Development helps you to understand the fundamentals of the framework. By the end of Express Web Application Development, you will have acquired enough knowledge and skills to create production-ready Express apps. All of this is made possible by the incremental introduction of more advanced topics, starting from the very essentials.

On the way to mastering Express.js for application development, we teach you the more advanced topics such as routes, views, middleware, forms, sessions, cookies and various other aspects of configuring an Express application. Jade; the recommended HTML template engine, and Stylus; the CSS pre-processor for Express, are covered in detail.

Last, but definitely not least, Express Web Application Development also covers practices and setups that are required to make Express apps production-ready.

What you will learn from this book

  • Understand the core concepts and objects that make up the Express framework and an Express app
  • Create Jade-based views for Express apps and render them
  • Create routes for an Express app and handle them
  • Serve different kinds of responses and handle various kinds of errors
  • Create dynamic apps using HTML forms, cookies, and sessions
  • Learn about the Jade HTML templating language in detail
  • Learn about the Stylus CSS pre-processor syntax and language in detail
  • Customize and prepare your Express apps to make them production ready

About the Author

Hage Yaapa is a contributing developer of Express and the head of Web and Node.js development at Sourcebits.

He joined one of the best medical schools in India, JIPMER, to become a doctor, but dropped out to pursue his burning passion for computers and the Internet. He has been creating websites and apps since 1999 using a very wide array of web technologies. He is a self-taught programmer and everything he knows about technology, he learned on his own from the Internet and books.

Yaapa blogs about Node.js, Express, and other web technologies on his website www.hacksparrow.com, as Captain Hack Sparrow.

This will sound crazy, but I would like to first thank Khaled Mardam-Bey, the creator of mIRCthe IRC software, which started everything for me. I learned many of the important things I know about computers and the Internet on IRC channels during the transitioning of the century. The first programming language I learned was mIRC Script, which helped me pick up JavaScript and other programming languages rather easily.

Next, I would like to thank T. J. Holowaychuk for creating Express and the unbelievable number of impressive Node.js packages he has created.

Then, I would like to thank Ryan Dahl for creating Node.js, and Isaac Schlueter for carrying it forward.

I would also like to thank Brendan Eich for creating JavaScript, for there would have been no Node.js or Express, if there were no JavaScript.

Last but not the least, I would like to thank my loving wife Kenyum for putting up with me while I wrote this book.

Preface

This book is about Express, the popular web framework used by thousands of Node.js developers around the world. It specifically covers the third major version of the framework, commonly referred to as Express 3.

Express has matured considerably since it was first released exactly four years ago. Today it is recognized as one of the best web frameworks for Node.js. Every day new developers from varied backgrounds and experience come to Express for developing their web apps. With its ever-growing popularity, it is about time we had a book on Express.

I wrote a tutorial on Express some time ago that became quite popular online, particularly with those new to Node.js and Express. Ever since, I had a dream of writing a book on Express, which would make no assumptions about the reader's prior experience and knowledge, and still be full of technical details wherever required. The book you are holding in your hands is that dream realizeda book on Express that is both beginner-friendly and technically deep at the same time.
