NodeJs is a powerful JavaScript engine that can be used for a variety of tasks. In this course, we’ll learn the basics of working with NodeJS. We’ll work with the core libraries, but also learn about using npm: theNode Package Manager to load and work with any third party package that has been developed for NodeJS. We’ll also look at three ways to write and run a simple web server using node.

The course is an hour long, and consists of two units. Topics include:

• installation
• testing and verifying the installation
• introduction to the npm
• using the REPL utility
• file input and output

The course assumes that you are comfortable writing and understanding object oriented JavaScript.

I hope you’ll join us for this exciting introduction to NodeJS.
